If Red Staters don't like abortion, then why do they have so many of them?

Update:

OK, I already knew it was a dumb question, I only asked it to make people reveal their hidden agendas. Read the responses to see right wingers talk about how it's the fault of black people. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

PS

It's pretty obvious there's a lot of abortion in the blue states: that's not hypocritical which was the original point of the question.

    Because they want to control other peoples lives while they do as they please.

    Red states get a bunch of liberal sluts coming down for school'in ! This disclaimer is right there with the ratios...

    Abortions by state of occurrence include abortions obtained by non-residents of the state as well as those obtained by residents.

    Your link does not state the political affiliation of the patient. IE, in a "Red " state, where 55% of the people vote Rep., that leaves 45% that are included in state statistics. So, if 45% of the population is having 80% of the abortions, your point is meaningless. A famous quote from Benjamin Disraeli " There are lies, there are damned lies, and then there are statistics".

    Don't know, and honestly, I guess they have more "ooops" in those states, or maybe more sex, thus increasing the likelihood of a unplanned pregnancy. more fertile women there? a shortage of condoms.

    At any rate, are you not tired of the "Karl Rove" red and blue divide. we are all Americans

    Becvause a lot of blacks live in MS, AL, LA. Those are Obama voters.

    Brian says your question is stupid because not every one in a red state is a republican. Is he right? Seems so.

    Because red staters are not 100% populated by evangelical Republicans. That premise is so ludicrous, it defies any kind of logic.
