It's because your not reading. Read again. And don't read only what you want to read, read the whole thing. Where did I say it absolutely was not in the womans control? Read the bolded part again.
What is it I'm not reading? I did read the whole thing. Several times actually, but it still said the same thing. Here's the bolded part you wanted me to read again.
and make her a criminal for something that may/may not be in her control.
I weren't refering to you saying it was absolutely out of the woman's control. You said it MAY not be in a woman's controll. I honestly don't see your reasoning and basis for that, since its the woman HERSELF that decide to do the abortion, unless the doctor says she needs to perform an abortion, otherwise she'll die. Its completely within her control.
Most, normally, or the majority is not all. The number may be 1% but thats about 1000 babies your talking about per year. It's true making third trimester abortions won't really affect abortions in general, all women need to do is decide earlier. But it will appease the pro-lifers, and even people like you and me that babies that could possibly be born arn't being aborted and killed. And yes third trimester abortions is still legal here in the united states, though not in all states.
I didn't say it was the majority. I just explained that the situation you describe is very small. Way less then 1%.
True you can look at it blindly in the legal sense, and you would be right. Or you can put yourself in the shoes of the woman making the decision. Some women have it alot harder than others, factor that into your view also. LIke I said making criminals out of our woman for deciding what to do with their bodies is not the thing you want to do.
Hence why it should remain legal. If someone decides to attempt a suicide, that's illegal. They decided they wanted to do that with their bodies. How is that any different from a woman deciding she doesn't want the baby? Not the killing part, but the decision over your own body part.
How are you villifying woman when 99% of the abortions are done in the first and second trimester?
WRONG, you just said earlier that it wasn't a majority. That even 1% is still 1000 babies, and now you suddenly changed your mind and decided that 99% are done at this stage?
Like I said earlier, a reat majority is BEFORE 3 months. Second trimester is 4-6 months in to the pregnancy. So 4-5 month is still without great risk, although more risky then before 3 months. Third trimester is 6-9 months.
The reason people like you get confused about the whole situation is because you got it worked out in your mind that it's Murder, and so you want to go around looking for all those responsible for conspiring the murder. But we arn't talking about Murder here were just talking about making the procedure of assisted abortions illegal. Like assisted suicide, like the partial birth abortion ban act of 2003 both laws that are already in effect and punish the physicians.
Actually, that's the whole thing we're saying its NOT. So you mean pro-lifers don't say its murder? Then what is your whole argument that abortion should be illegal? Additionally, why are the people demonstrating against abortion holding signs of dead fetuses and signs that say "Stop the murder!"?
Additionally, you want to know WHY your "abortion 1 week prior to when the baby is due" never happens?
Well, at that point the baby can survive being prematurely born. So the doctor would most likely recommend performing caesarean section and put the baby up for adoption.
