Americans Remain Split on Abortion: Gallup Survey

Abortion, , ,

A new Gallup survey shows Americans are evenly split when it comes to whether they consider abortion moral or immoral, but most Americans don’t support abortion on demand.

Gallup found 47% of Americans believe abortion is morally acceptable while 46% said it is morally wrong.

That’s the most support Gallup has ever found for abortion, but statistically, it is still a tie.

The survey also found nearly one out of five (19%) of Americans believes abortion ought to be illegal in all circumstances, and 48% said it should be legal only under certain circumstances.

Taken together, 67% of Americans think abortion ought to be either completely illegal or legal only in certain cases.

Overall, the findings track pretty closely with past surveys by Gallup and other organizations.

In Arkansas, public opinion polling has found that 23% of the state believes abortion ought to be completely illegal, and 84% of likely voters in Arkansas do not support abortion on demand.

Burger King Pledges Donations to Pro-LGBT Human Rights Campaign

Homosexuality, LGBT, ,

Earlier this month fast food giant Burger King announced that for every chicken sandwich it sold it would donate 42 cents to pro-LGBT organization the Human Rights Campaign, up to $250,000 total.

The Human Rights Campaign is one of the nation’s most radically pro-LGBT organizations.

Last fall the group outlined public policies that would strip many Christian schools of their accreditation.

The Human Rights Campaign has promoted pro-abortion events in Arkansas. In 2014 the group spent more than $160,000 supporting Fayetteville’s controversial, pro-LGBT ordinance; the group also opposed religious exemptions to Fayetteville’s ordinance.

Burger King is just one of the latest companies to jump on the pro-LGBT bandwagon this year.

In the meantime, it’s probably safe to say many conservatives will go elsewhere this month for chicken sandwiches.
