Support for abortion is driven mainly by selfishness. It always has been. Becoming pregnant is inconvenient, and having a child is not only inconvenient but expensive. The freedoms of modern Western society allowed men and women to exercise their selfish impulses without dire social consequences. Many eagerly did so. They were no longer bound by ancient, traditional religious and secular laws that protect the lives of the unborn, so they killed them. There is no doubt that abortion is murder, but liberals don't really mind murdering other people, if it means their lives can be a little more convenient.
