Safe: it depends on the situation, because back-alley abortions are not at all safe, but maybe they are if performed in a clinic or hospital. Legal: I oppose abortion except to save the life of the mother. There are other options available (birth control and adoption, for example) that, while by no means foolproof, are still much better alternatives and I feel should be legal. As for rape and incest, I feel that it is an exploitation of women to allow abortion in cases of rape because it suggests that men can sexually abuse women without consequence. Incest can be voluntary or involuntary, so the same guidelines, in my opinion, would apply to it as well. Rare: If we change the law to reflect this, abortion will be rare.
