Abortion is murder.
A woman finds herself pregnant and she has internalized this message. So now what, "I'm pro-choice but I believe abortion to be a sin/murder." And now we have an unwanted pregnancy with a moral dilemma she may not have faced prior to the indoctrination. This is why I worry about the "I'm pro-choice, but..." people.
This is what years of media framing have done to our collective conscious. Abortion clinics were once called women's health clinics or family planning clinics. We tried to get "pro-life" groups called anti-choice, very little success. OB/GYNs were called women's doctors or women's health care providers. Now, if they provide abortion they are called abortion doctors.
The framing has been successful.
