If PaulS's number of 5000 is correct, it even more so fit Buckman's "I guess we can say women consistently die from abortion."
His point wasn't the actual number so much as pointing out the loose way the word "continuous" is used. I think, perhaps I've misread again, I think he meant continuously rather than consistently, although either would make his point.
And, as you induced Paul to give us a vastly higher number of deaths from illegal abortions, then women even more continuously or consistently died from abortion pre-Roe v. Wade.
Which more than validated Buckman's statement.
