    SOME late-term abortions are simply NECESSARY. The number is already very small which indicates that there are no UNnecessary abortions being performed.

    It indicates no such thing! It most likey indicates that few doctors will actually perform them!

    If only a few late-term abortions are necessary, and only a few late-term abortions are being performed....the answer is obvious.

    Well, as I have previously pointed out, that is simply not true. It could be that many women want them but not many doctors will actually do them.

    If those women are not getting abortions because not many doctors will do them, that is even more evidence that the abortions actually performed are NECESSARY. Do just a teeny-weeny bit of research instead of just accusing women.

    THINK before you make assinine indefensible comments like :"no woman would ever ask for one ever ever in any country anywhere".

    I don't know if a fetus is a PERSON. I'm skeptical.

    A fetus is not a person.


    Why are you digging up all these old threads?

    This is a thread I started 4 years ago when I was on the fence.

    Now I'm pro-choice. We can continue to debate this if people are still interested. The original question:


    Then I was not sure. Now I say no. Add to this the fact that no person can live at the expense of another person without their consent. The fetus exists inside of and is attached to the woman's body making the fetus her possession. That makes pregnancy and it's termination entirely the woman's business.
