10:35Now PlayingNew polling from The Economist/YouGov suggests that 19% of respondents, and 24% of males, believe that women who violate their state’s antiabortion laws by getting an illegal abortion should be charged with murder. Even more shocking, 44% of all responders equate abortions with murdering actual children with only 45% strongly or somewhat disagreeing with that statement. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 68 pm ET.

"A shockingly high percentage of Americans think a woman who gets an abortion in violation of a state law “should be charged with murder” — with men significantly more likely than women to say so.
The Justice Samuel Alito-authored draft opinion that would overturn the constitutional right to abortion has energized abortion rights supporters, but polling also shows the enormous gulf between the majority who support Roe and the minority who do not.
One stunning illustration of the divide is a new The Economist/YouGov poll in which respondents were asked “Do you think that a woman who has an abortion that violates state law should or should not be charged with murder?”
The results were stunning: among all respondents, a not-insignificant 19 percent replied “Should be charged with murder,” and another 24 percent saying they were “not sure,” with 54 percent saying no, a woman should not be charged with murder if she violates a state abortion law.
Among men, 24 percent replied “Should be charged with murder,” and another 25 percent saying they were “not sure,” with only a bare 51 percent majority saying no, a woman should not be charged with murder."
