    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.

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

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

    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."

    Your ability to lie with half truths is remarkable, blob.
