Once Americans understand the grisly details and what <em>Roe v. Wade <\/em>really entailed, their opinions change dramatically.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, while the pro-abortion media routinely tout <em>Roe<\/em> as majority-supported, more than half of the poll respondents opposed <em>Roe v. Wade<\/em> once they learned it allowed for late-term abortions. <\/p>\n<p>Fifty-three percent said they support, versus 31 percent who opposed, <em>Roe v. Wade<\/em> when it was presented to them as the keystone to recognizing abortion as a so-called \u201cconstitutional right,\u201d which is the left\u2019s framing of the issue. But when participants learned <em>Roe<\/em> allowed for late-term abortions, when unborn babies can feel pain, those numbers reversed and then some: 56 percent said they opposed <em>Roe v. Wade<\/em>, and only 28 percent supported it.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"606\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Screenshot-195-1024x606-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-275335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Screenshot-195-1024x606-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Screenshot-195-300x178.png 300w, https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Screenshot-195-768x455-1.png 768w, https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Screenshot-195.png 1270w\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>The trend of participants switching positions once they knew more facts continued throughout the poll. When asked if they supported or opposed late-term abortions, seventy-four percent of Republicans opposed compared to only 36 percent of Democrats. Almost half the Democrats surveyed said they support late-term abortions. <\/p>\n<p>However, once participants were asked if a fetus counts as a human life when it has a heartbeat at six weeks, begins to move its eyes at 12 weeks, or can feel pain at 14 weeks, the Democrat position on late-term abortion shifted. Fifty-nine percent of respondents, including <em>49 percent of Democrats<\/em>, now said they support abortion bans if there is an indication of life. <\/p>\n<p>Sixty-eight percent of participants thought a fetus is a human life once it has a heartbeat at six weeks. And once they were reminded a fetus has a unique DNA blueprint as soon as sperm meets egg, a whopping 66 percent said a fetus is a human life at conception. After answering questions about the humanity of unborn children, 55 percent of respondents said abortions should be prohibited between 0 and 6 weeks gestation.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"604\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Screenshot-197-1-1024x604-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-275337\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Screenshot-197-1-1024x604-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Screenshot-197-1-300x177.png 300w, https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Screenshot-197-1-768x453-1.png 768w, https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Screenshot-197-1.png 1262w\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>It\u2019s clear to see how public opinion changes where knowledge about human life and development increases, but left-wing activists and media have a vested interest in hiding the cruel realities of abortion from Americans.
