    Hey O'Keefed, why do you think New York and Virginia were trying to pass a law that allowed a type of abortion you claimed never happens?

    Still a liar, blob?

    I never claimed late term abortions don't happen.

    You claimed they were nearly non-existent.

    How disappointing. I clicked on this thinking someone had given HH a Virginia Special.

    They are rare. But a severely deformed fetus with no hope of long term survival can befall some couples. I know one such couple. That wasn't an unwanted pregnancy; it was a hopeless pregnancy.

    Does the baby have to be severely deformed for the abortion to take place as the law was written?

    No. It would be possible to obtain a late term abortion if a physician determines there are dire risks to the mother’s health in not aborting.

    "Health" can be very widely interpreted. Including mental health.

    If the mother said that having this baby would cause her to become depressed would that be enough for the law?

    It can. Dire suggests a high degree of seriousness. You don't seem to trust a doctor to make a medical determination.

    What if the law made that point clear? That mental health doesn't count? That it's only in situations where the woman is at serious risk, and that were determined by an unaffiliated, non-abortion doctor?

    What then?

    My point here is, why nitpick the law if you don't believe it's ok. Just say that and stand by it. I don't have any issues with people who are anti-abortion, even those who are anti-abortion in every single circumstance. I understand the argument and the position. It's just that most of them are full of shit and terribly insincere in their beliefs.

    I'm against it. Only pointing out that it is very open to interpretation and it's really not as it was representd in an earlier post.

    They won't change the law. Guarantee that.

    Bob prefers to have the government make the decision rather than the doctor and mother. Such the conundrum that you now trust the government over the expert on what's best for the mother's health.

    What was represented, in an earlier post made by you, was that this law was abortions for all. Which we all know was a lie.

    Interesting. Because mental health was definitely part of the bill being voted on in Virginia and it's not like you'd ever lie or talk your ass O'Keefed.

    Yeah, Gosnel was all about the mother's health and he was an "expert."

    If the law made that kind of distinction I wouldn't oppose it but that's not the way these abortion laws are being written and that's not some kind of oversight by the pro-abortion crowd.

    The law doesn’t permit late term abortion for trivial reasons. Never has. But by all means, do continue your snipe hunt.

    It is abortion on demand since being depressed or stressed out about having the baby could easily earn an abortion. Like I said it's not like abortion doctors have morals. They're all about the money. No dead babies no money.

    Fuck you're dumb!

    Fuck you're dumb!
    To be clear, I am entirely against this. I've wrestled with this debate for years, and the "drawing the line" thing is impossible, which compromises all the viability arguments. The other arguments that are trash are the "my body, my rules" and privacy lines of reasoning, though I recognize that the SCOTUS position is deeply rooted in notions of privacy.

    That said, I also know that I react much differently to the termination of an early-stage fetus than to a late-stage developed fetus. I know that those are different, and the explanations for why are rather complicated. But it's slippery as hell. All of it.

    But I agree with one thing somebody said, and that is that women lining up for late-term abortions is not a thing. I think they're rare and almost always involve some biological threat to the woman's health. I know a few docs with whom I knock back beers, and we've talked about this. They'll tell you that it's also not easy to find an abortion doc. who will do those procedures ... if only from a liability standpoint, they don't want to be involved. Messy stuff.

    But I also have to say I can't support an open-ended law like that. There's no reason for it. Btw, these procedures are risky as all get out for the mother too. It's not an uncomplicated thing to terminate a fetus that late. Mental issues can be overcome. Terminating a fetus in the 7th or 8th month because you're depressed should be a "no go" IMO. But I also believe terminating in the first trimester should be a no-questions-asked right. Just my $0.02.
