As far as I can tell, it isn’t practiced anywhere in the world and, if it were, would qualify as infanticide.

It’s a buzz word scare tactic, nothing more.

Boru

Buzz word scare tactics by the authors perhaps. Im just presenting the options to the question

Like u said, there is an argument for after birth abortion therefore i made it an option on the poll

After birth abortion is being performed in some states under the "Born alive" abortion bill

Anyway it's just a poll. Im not changing anyones mind. Their the options
Nope

My bad if it is. I didn't look far into it so ur probably right. If they made a law protecting the baby there was probably talk of terminating it i guess but i don't know
I just saw there was a case being made for it so i added it as an option

I just had another dig and found claims Obama opposed the born alive legislation
Heres a link but have a google search ul find heaps on it
https://www.factcheck.org/2008/08/obama-...fanticide/

Anyway are u gonna vote or are u still skeptical that ive built some kind of trap involving slavery beliefs? 
Cmon mate... Great

Well the answers seem to have made sense to most people. Maybe approach it from another angle.

U can always suggest another option that i may have overlooked if u want

RE: Abortion poll
Sorry, why is this suddenly about how Barack Obama voted on a bill 17 years ago?

No, I'm not going to vote. 

You still don't seem to understand my comment about slavery, so I'll explain it.  Slavery is a way of negating human rights.  Indentured servitude is a way of partially negating human rights.  Abortion, for me, is primarily about a woman's right to bodily autonomy.  Any restrictions on abortion, such as the ones you proposed,  are a partial negation of that right.

Reminds me of a story I read long ago. Completely unmotivated guy living in Dad's basement wakes up on day to find a box with a button on it beside this note:

"If you want to stay here forever without working or helping out around the house, push this button."

He does. Box explodes.

What r u talking about suddenly. U said "It’s my understanding that the ‘born alive’ laws protect newborns after a failed abortion"
And u are right so then i looked into why they made this law and found that they have been rejecting it for a long time
Ur acting like "aha got ya, u planned this all along" Ultra paranoid mate u are spooked hard Hehe

Thats fine. Without any reasoning for your indignation u just come across as super entitled and privileged Panic
Attacking my position which so far is the most popular is making u look foolish as well to be honest

I think u were just offended by uncomfortable facts that i presented or opinions that differ from yours. Hmph

1. I was wondering why you brought up Mr. Obama's position on the bill.  I'm sure plenty of other people voted against it. And apparently, you haven't looked into it deeply enough - it's been the law in the US since 2002. So the 'keep rejecting it' isn't true.

2.  No, it wasn't intended as a 'gotcha'.  Does Obama's stance on abortion affect yours (it certainly doesn't affect mine)?

3.  LOL, I'm not indignant about your poll. And I come across as entitled and privileged because I'm entitled and privileged.  Happy now?
4.  'Popular' and 'correct' aren't often the same thing.

5. *indulgent chuckle* No, you haven't offended me.  I was already familiar with the facts (which don't make me uncomfortable) and I've heard opinions identical to yours for years.

6.  You understand that slavery was an analogy, correct?

Yar, it tears me up no end that someone else has opinions different from mine.  It makes me so upset that I may have to lie down and yell for someone to bring me a sandwich.
