My point is that many on this board do not find late term abortion or abortion as a whole a problem. The problem is that the Dr. was performing "illegal" abortions instead of "legal" ones. So yes by inference the condemnation is that he wasn't doing anything wrong in the abortions only that they were "illegal".

Here is a previous quote:

"Most late-term abortions are due to issues like Down's Syndrome or genetic problems that would result in the infant's death shortly after birth. They are not because suzy couldn't "choose" not to have sex. But even if they are, I'd rather women have access to the care than do this, because this is the result when abortion is illegal or when access is restricted."

So one supports the right of a woman to have a late term abortion but not by this man. The concern was obviously not for the children but rather the adult.

That's not logical at all. This man did not just perform abortions but murdered babies that had been born and alive for several minutes on their own. He also, for instance, kept body parts in jars.

Everyone has a right to their opinion, but you are making leaps that are fragile at best. No one here has supported what this man did. Believing women have a right to abortion does not mean supporting this "doctor's" actions.

Killing children in the name of "reproductive" rights is messed up. You do not see it as a child and I do. The adult is not the innocent one here. I disagree with you and your ilk so live with it. You will not convince me you are right and you will not keep me from posting what I believe.

Bottom line you believe it is acceptable to kill the unborn as long as it is done by in a "legal" manor. I do not unless the life of the mother is at stake. She then has the right to chose as it is a life vs. a life. I wish for us to err on the side of the innocent child more than the adult.

This isn't about convincing people to change their views. Abortion is a controversial topic and I think it's obvious no one expects to change another person's mind on a message board. However, if you wish others to respect your right to an opinion, have the decency to respect their right. You aren't going to change anyone's mind, either, and certainly not by referring to anyone who supports a woman's right to choose as "ilk".
