There aren't many studies about reasons for late term abortions, but the few that exist show that a substantial number are requested for reasons OTHER than serious health issues of the mom or unborn child. Did you watch the Crowder video I posted where he actually shows one of those studies (from a left-wing publication, no less)?

So since we have women who will definitely want to terminate late term pregnancies for totally immoral reasons, the only safeguard against it would be the doctors, and as I explained in the last post, it's not difficult to find a doctor who will do anything unethical if it's technically legal.

This is not old conservative scaremongering.

Under this new law, late term abortions for flimsy/unethical reasons WILL happen.

Even if just 10% of all late term abortions are unjustified, that number is way too high, and extremely tragic.

For those saying, "The population is way too high, so it's fine", that never justifies murder. If you think human beings should be killed for population control, why not just shoot yourself? Serious question.

It is appalling that there are people who support this law, or even abortions at 24 weeks "for any reason", for that matter.

Have some fucking decency and respect for human life.
So, with all of this demanding “fucking decency and respect for human life” are you fully in support for Medicare-for-all? And expanding Medicaid to those who wouldn’t be able to afford Medicare-for-all premiums? Or do those lives not count as much as the fetuses you are trying to save?
Another go-to left wing response to late term abortion criticism.

I also would have accepted, "OMG OMG you want to protect babies in the womb but don't care about them once they're born poor! Heartless Republican!"
