    For those who did not read the article:

    She was 28 weeks (6.5 months) pregnant. The survival rate for babies born at at 28 weeks is 80%. ( source: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1117667/ ). This wasn’t a fetus, this was a fully formed baby.

    I fully support right to choose, but this wasn’t abortion…it was murder followed by coverup. Everyone getting riled up over the social justice of this has plenty of things to be riled up over these days, but this isn’t one of those things.

      “I fully support the right to choose” vomits forced-birther talking points

      If you’re going to be against abortion can you just be honest about it and knock off this “I’m pro-aborition BUT” nonsense? You aren’t fooling anyone.

        Go look up “28-week baby” on google images and get back to me about your bullshit.

            At what point do you think it’s unethical? Or do you have no line that can’t be crossed. At 28 weeks, it’s a fully formed baby that can survive outside the womb with an 80% survival rate…that’s way past any reasonable and ethical line.

            Are you capable of reason? Let’s hear yours.

              How exactly is a 28 week old baby “fully formed” when pregnancies are usually 40 weeks long? Do they just chill for 12 whole weeks doing nothing? Or are you ready to admit you’re just talking out of your ass? Try applying reason to your own arguments before wasting my time with whatever poorly thought out nonsense you’re coming in here to spout.

              It’s unethical to tell woman what they can and cannot do with their own bodies. Trying to argue “well before x weeks it’s fine, after that it’s unethical” is misleading nonsense. If it’s not your body, it’s none of your fucking business. End of discussion.
