New Iowa Law Restricts Abortion To Before Most Women Know They're Pregnant

[RoadRunner79]

So then, would you agree with making those second and third trimester abortions illegal, except in cases where there is an emergency situation, and the pregnancy is putting the mother in immediate medical danger? As well it would be stipulated that emotional distress, does not constitute an immediate medical danger, which constitutes fetal homicide.

If it was illegal, then it would make sense not to bring it up.

No, because I still think keeping it legal would cause less harm than making it illegal. Just to take one example, when mentioning the dark days before Roe v. Wade, I mentioned the case of Gerri Santoro, who died while performing an abortion on herself (and became an icon of the movement because the photo of her bloody body was leaked to the public), because she couldn't get a doctor do so one for her. Hers was a late term abortion.

I think that it is difficult to justify the killing of a preborn baby based on less harm as stated above. Given that a successful abortion results in the harm (specifically death) of a human being. This is the intended result. (Not exactly fitting under the Hippocratic oath. I’m assuming, that you are not trying to indicate that every legal abortion would result outcomes as you described above, if they where made illegal. While I think that it is difficult to calculate, I also think it’s difficult to say that less harm is done with legalized homicide.

How about, we educate people. Teach of the risks of doing a alley way abortion. Give them
support, and do every thing possible to discourage the on demand killing of these human beings. Would you agree to that?
