Welcome to Gaia! ::

*raises hand*

A) the woman had the right to schedual the abortion.

B) The Clinic personel were doing wrong if they killed it AFTER it was born alive. (notice how the article states this is being assessed?)

C) I feel sorry for the woman who had to give birth to the child she didn't want.

D) I think the article said that she went for an abortion, and it must have not worked or something cus it said she came in later complaining of pain, why would she return complaining of pain if she knew she hadn't aborted? wouldn't she have then gone to the hospital thinking "AIYAH baby's dropping!" She must have thought something went wrong with the abortion or somthing *shrug* least thats how I'm reading it, it really makes little sense elswise.

*points to the above post that considers the weight and time*

Not the womans fault people, clinic, evil clinic. Now if Clinics wern't so protested about they could be better monitored and things like this might become figments of the past.

After all if they are sactioned under scrutiny you really can easily control when and why things happen, and proceedures. Right now the only clinics are private due to all the protest, which means the gov has limited control over them as far as regulating them for humane actions, such as saving this baby.

This may just be me, but I doubt any Pro-choicer would agree with killing the child after it was born.

Pro-Choice isn't "Pro Abort" or even "Anti having a baby" or "Anti motherhood" I would ask you to kindly stop confusing the term. Pro Choice means we simply support women having the OPTION to abort available to them should they need/want to. If they abort, *shrug* fine by us, if they keep it? Still fine by us.

In this case the woman did choose to abort, obviously didn't (which was more than likely out of her hands), and thus we have a dead baby.

Imagine if the doctor lied to her, saying she had aborted, but really the doctor didn't do the operation. I see that as a potentially great crime there.

she was still wrong to get an abortion that late in her pregnancy, so really that argument about it being the doctor's fault dosen't matter at all.

Wrong. Lyme can tell you a feel stories about this one.

Do you support the legalisation of abortion? The you are pro-abortion.

And it obviously seems like you don't care. If the child is, for any reason, born alive it is required by law that the cinic notify the nearest medical authorities.



Hey, guess what. The child may have been born alivea dnthen smothered with a bio-bag. It already is a potential great crime.

But yes, her giving birth to a live human being who can hopefully gorw up loved by his mother, or loved by people who want him, or at the very least gorw up and experince life and make his own choices would be a terrible crime!

Nope. Pro-life means that we belive that a human is a perosn through all stages of human life and shoudl be protected in the womb, a woman should be held responcible for the life of the child if she willingly consented to sex and that obtions for abortion shoudl not be made legally available to her, and that society shoudl change and adjust to give a little more help to woman who are pregnant as oppsed to tellign them they're gogin to fail at life if they don't kill. We are in no way against her decisions to obtain an abortion by other methods.

I believe she's commenting on how Pro-Choice devalues motherhood and children, stating that, if you don't want to be a mother, even if you are pregnant, you don't have to. So, if they decide a few years after birth that they didn't want to be mothers after all... *shrug*

Because, "I should have aborted you!" isn't really something that Pro-Lifers can say.

I don't want to argue, as this is in no way the place for it. But I figure that sharing information should be ok.

In Florida, elective abortion is legal until 24 weeks. This women claimed to be at 22 weeks, though her baby weighed 2 to 3 pounds (I guess they aren't sure of the exact weight?) and most 22 week old fetii weigh only 1 pound. So this woman might have been at or even over the limit.

Also, this isn't the only Florida abortion clinic that has had problems. I would blame the clinics themselves for this issue, not protesters or any other political group. However, the new footage (from the article - all of this is from there) did state that some clinic workers did help authorities recover this poor baby, while others made the authorities search harder.

Just so that anyone who didn't want to or couldn't watch the new footage can see the story they said. Anyone who doesn't trust me (and I can't blame you if you don't) can watch the footage from the link on the first page.
