Re: abortion...
Under the premise of "people are going to do it anyway", why not legalize prostitution in the United States, give these women (or men) STD examinations, make it into a corporate institution, and tax the hell out of it? Most reading this must be thinking, "Why not?", but a consequence of this legalization would be an upset majority of Americans. The core of the nation still hold sacred values that a democratic republic are thereby forced to respect.
Most people in the nation must feel that the moral fiber of their country is being compromised when the government sanctions controversial acts that have traditionally been deemed "immoral". That is why it generates much hostility among the conservative base of this nation.

Even if you don't agree with abortion, it will happen anyway. So why are people trying to remove it from the safety of an institution where the would-be mother can at least be protected?
The answer is simple. Values played the most important role in our recent election and will continue to play that role for at least the next four years. As difficult as it may be to understand for some, the safety of a potential mother is secondary to the values that the nation reflects as a whole by condoning the (from the point of view of anti-abortionists) mass murder of unborn children. To pro-life individuals, it is a civil rights issue pertaining to the rights of the unborn child.
