Birth control pills act as abortifacients, meaning they prevent a fertilized egg from inpanting on the uterine wall.
They don't simply "prevent" pregnancy, but terminate it at its earliest stage.
I'd like to add that abortions abruptly change the hormonal levels which naturally increase during pregnancy. This drastic, radical change wreaks its own havoc by increasing a woman's chances of breat cancer. Research supports this claim. Planned Paretnhood and the Susan Komen Foundation ought to get on board.
Having a child presents more of a health risk than having a legal abortion.
The definition of abortion Colorado Watch uses to call Birth Control pills aborifacients is a quite radical one which is not widely accepted even among those opposed to abortion.
