To a poor pregnant woman weighing her options ..... risk ruining their lives trying ask for an abortion and even get the death penalty .... risk getting a secret abortion in a backroom and maybe die from the procedure.
The outcomes are ... they ruin their lives if they try to ask for help ... they risk death if they get a secret abortion but also the chance of getting away with it.
It just means more women will just take the chance of getting abortions in secret ... expect women dying from secret abortions being on par with third world nations in first world United States.
Abortion bans only reduce the number of safe abortions.
