    I'd start by making the 99 percent of abortions that aren't made due to medical reasons a felony. To save atleast the 99 percent of babies that are being murdered. The less than one percent of abortions done for medical reasons can be handled on a case by case basis. Ie if it's life threatening to the mother.

    But let's be real, the life of the mother isn't your concern. You simply think the mother gets to choose death for a baby because she wants to. It's quite sick.

    If you do not stop with the personal attacks I WILL start reporting you

    Now let us keep the conversation civilised

    Who will determine the threat to the life of the woman? And at what level of threat is the abortion to be allowed?

    Remember that I live in a state where abortion IS illegal but still occurs - LEGALLY

    ...and how exactly would you determine who had an abortion? How would they be suspected, investigated,....there is NO way to do that....

    ...and did you want women executed for these "murders"??? You're not concerned with their lives, you just want them to be executed to make you feel good...

    You musty like the idea of jailing or executing people's mothers, daughters, wives, grandmothers for doing what women have been doing for centuries...

    Semantics are irrelevant. Remember I live in a state with not one but about three anti abortion laws and you can still get a legal abortion here on request. In fact there is a service which offers abortion by Telehealth using "medical" abortions

    Only maybe in the very early stages of the pregnancy. Once you hit later on in the pregnancy, a fetus is clearly a baby inside the womb. Just because it hasn't been born yet doesn't mean it isn't a human. The idea that it isn't a human until the moment of birth is a very unscientific claim often made by very pro-abortion people. Once at the third term, the fetus is essentially a fully-fledged unborn human that can be born and medical technology take care of the rest.

    Don't take my word for it take the word of the government website.
    Health care for baby
    Right now, your OB or midwife is monitoring the health of your unborn baby. But as soon as your baby enters into this world, your baby will need his or her own doctor. Start looking into a doctor for your baby several months before your due date. Deciding on a doctor and figuring out health insurance before your child's birth saves time and gives you peace of mind as you near labor. Also, if you deliver early, somebody you know and trust will be at the ready to care for your new child.

    Quite frankly I don't need your permissions so stop being sanctimonious. You can deny and pretend all you want but you don't get to change the language and proper use of it because you may find it's proper use not fitting for your position.

    And how many late term abortions are there? Late term abortions are overwhelmingly done for foetal abnormality incompatible with life. These are usually WANTED pregnancies gone horribly tragically wrong

    Especially when it is almost impossible to legislate against abortion

    Yes, but the pro-abortion crowd still has no problem with them. They are adamant that it is not a human until birth (some, that it is not a human until 24 hours or a few days after birth). Also, it isn't just the third trimester, I would say it is a human before the third trimester.

    It's not semantics, the guy said use a dictionary

    a.
    A very young child; an infant.
    b. An unborn child; a fetus.

    That's not semantics nor are the other sites I posted discussing the unborn baby.

    It's called proper English and the pro-abortion side doesn't get to change the meanings of words to suit their cause.

    That doesn't change the fact it is a baby that is killed, a human baby.

    And my point stands does not matter what YOU decide to call it. What do you propose to do about it. I mean other than come on boards like this and bandy around terms like"baby killers".

    What difference does the wording make? Especially if it will not reduce the actual rate of abortion one iota

    What do you propose to do about it? Again just coming on boards like this and yellin "baby killer" is more than a little counter productive

    No I don't think that. I didn't even say that.

    Take a look at the locations for planned Parenthood however. Theyre not exactly conservative strongholds................

    Were it MY idea I just might be the author that wrote the book.

    But I simply study. I am not frozen as you show you are by posts you make.

    I gave you the source. If you are that belligerent, e mail them how much you hate their book.

    Don't care what you do. If you dont want to be called a murderer then don't support it.

    And a medical professional will determine if her life is in danger to any significant degree.

    But the other 99 percent of babies being murdered should be out of the question. They deserve a chance at life and just because a female wrongly thinks this life that unwittingly was put there is her body doesn't mean it should be murdered.

    How long it's been occurring does not make for an argument that it should still occur. By that argument we should still participate in slavery. Ofcourse you wouldn't realize how useless that argument is.

    And their lives matter as much as the babies life. Not more not less.

    How do we find the ones who would continue murdering? By investigation...talking to people, etc. How you need that explained is beyond reason.

    Punishment would be the same as murdering anyone else.

    I am not American so I cannot say anything about that I am only going on the research from the Guttmacher institute

    but I do know from reading posts from people like OKgrannie that PP is often in poor neighbourhoods offering a lot of women's health services - and in case you did not realise the surgical procedure for abortion is the SAME procedure used for partial miscarriage

    And that is what happens here - the result - our abortion rates rival yours DESPITE it being illegal

    Now again if this is so concerning tell me what you propose to do to reduce the abortion rate
