<p>January 22, 2013 marked 40 years since Roe v. Wade legalized abortion on the federal level and roughly 54.5 million human lives have been lost.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>More Americans have died because of abortion than have died in the Civil War, both World Wars, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Persian Gulf War and the current war in Iraq combined.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>More babies are killed <b>each day</b> in America than the total number of people killed in the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>There are as many abortion deaths each year as there are deaths caused by heart disease and cancer <b>combined</b>. <span class="post-teaser-more">&nbsp;<a href="http://heartsunitedforlife.com/?p=485" title="Permanent Link: Abortion Statistics" rel="bookmark">Read more...</a> <i>(538 words, estimated 2:09  mins reading time)</i></span></p>
