Oh... I understand completely. The rates after the abortion laws changed are
NOT going to be linear... they will increase exponentially because of more
DEMOCRATS having more babies.
If the laws affected no one but the same EXACT people that were having babies
before the laws changed, then yes, the rates would have stayed the same...
probably.
But that's not the case, is it?

Roe v. Wade kept a LOT of Black women from having babies and jacking up the
IMR. THAT is why the rates are going up now... more BLACK women having babies.
Why are you so keen to kill off Blacks, like Margret Sanger, one of your
liberal heroes?

Right. But you snipped (of course) the most important variable out of the
equation, since you're a a conniving little liberal bitch.
"Maybe, but only because more DEMOCRATS are having babies and they're KNOWN to
have higher infant mortality."
Now that more DEMOCRATS are having babies and they are KNOWN to lose more
babies, they are adding to the INFANT MORTALITY RATES.
