I mean really if we made it so that women could only get abortions if they were raped and they had to have a police report to prove it that would cause IMMENSE problems. First of all as said rape is under-reported forcing a woman to go through that justso she doesn't have to be saddled with a constant reminder of that rape, is just cruel. Also women may start falsly reporting rapes just so they can get an abortion, and wth rape being a he said she said circumstance in so many cases that wouldn't help things much AT ALL!
