5. I can't believe that many people |
|
voted to make them illegal even if the mother's health was in danger. Or did I read it wrong?
I have problems with the concept, but sometimes due to terrible things it has to be done. Now, just kind of changing one's mind in the 8th month, I couldn't support, but I don't think that's the issue here.

Percentage wise, late term abortions aren't about a mom changing her mind.
You read it right. The issue before the supreme court is about not having an exception for life and health of a mother. If the pro-lifers were really pro-life, they wouldn't have a problem with that. But it isn't about life. It is about control.

10. So it might be a woman with |
|
three small children at home, condemned to die because she must carry an already doomed baby nine months? How nuts is THAT?

15. I seriously doubt you could find a doctor who'd do it just because |
|
"of changing one's mind." I'd venture further and say you'd be hard-pressed to find many women who would do this for that reason at that stage of the pregnancy.

It's a rare procedure that is only likely to be used to protect the life of the mother.
Please keep this thread kicked so the local freep mentality will get a good kick in the ass!

17. Kickin' Because This Is Important! |

This is one of the freepiest abc affiliates I know of.
And they were covering the Supreme Court getting the Nebraska case.
Please don't let it get freeped!
