Up to that point, I do not think you are killing a being. After that point, I personally believe you are. That's just the way I feel.

However, I read this again, and I this is how I have come to understand this. This guy was taking a shortcut. Instead of killing the fetus out of site, in the womb, he was just streamlining the process, and getting it out of the womb first, a perfectly viable living being, and killing it on the table? Correct me if I am wrong here.

So I guess the justification of the pro choicers would be, as long as is it killed in the womb, it is ok? If so I found that highly disturbing, and a very convenient rearrangement of facts to justify this practice.

I am pro choice but I do not support 3rd trimester abortions, I thought they were illegal. If they are not then they should be, we need to do this because these are always the cases that pro-lifers bring up when arguing their point.
