I am not a fan of this man, Dr. David A. Grimes, because he links to crap. (Sorry. I do not how to say that more politely.) Let me share some examples.

First link I clicked on was:
>Before Roe v. Wade in 1973, an estimated 200,000 to 1.2 million illegal abortions occurred annually in the U.S.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/5524615


I followed that link and found that:
>To be eligible to use PubMed Commons, you must be an author of a publication in PubMed. You will need an invitation to join PubMed Commons and an NCBI account. This is free of charge.

Happy day! (Sorry. I find restriction of information that is in a public comment disingenuous at the best of times.)

Then I looked again at the article I was to read about the national rate of abortion and found the title was:
>Estimates of induced abortion in urban North Carolina.

which, leaving out that it was only urban abortion, was only from NC.

I click on other links. He quotes the Institute of Medicine from a 1975 paper:
>...the Institute of Medicine had concluded that legal abortion improved the health of women.


although the summary, which is all I read, says they "should enable and encourage women who have chosen abortion to obtain it during the first three months of pregnancy."

I know that many would not be pleased to hear that conclusion. Why is he quoting an article form 1975 as the final word anyway? Who has time to read through a 177-page scanned document anyway?

So I went to a third link from this statement:
> All major medical and public health organizations today affirm the health benefits of legal abortion; these include ...

Hey! Isn't that a link so I can buy his book?

Yup! it is.

TL;DR: You might want to remember this name, Dr. David A. Grimes, in case someone quotes him. That person is not a very deep thinker, because Dr. David A. Grimes does not support in links what he writes. He does blather on though.
