Aha! Which you would be "on the hook" for. Hypocrites. Difference between people like you and I, when a woman decides to carry through with the pregnancy and birth, I don't complain about it and say "I'm on the hook" for it. This story does not please me. I think most people would prefer it not come to this.
While adoption would be the best solution, if the mother-to-be rules that out then I'd MUCH rather my tax dollars go to support a child than to kill one.

You just answered your own question.

See my first reponse, above.

Exactly.

This is the utter hypocrisy of the pro-abortion crowd. They imply that the women are helpless victims while arguing in favor of a procedure that they claim empowers women.

Murder is murder. What because someone is a criminal it's okay for the state to put them to death. But abortion isn't acceptable?
Either all lives are equal and murder is never okay be it in utero or a 75 serial killer. You can't say murder is okay sometimes. That's so contradictory.

I will narrow it down to what was referenced to me. most abortions happen within the first trimester, the "baby" can't think and it has no "wishes", for that matter neither do they in the second trimester.
a fetus in the womb is potential life. pregnancy for many women is not a walk in the park. it is up to them if they want to put themselves through the rigors of pregnancy and child birth. saying yes to sex is not saying yes to pregnancy.
5 months is not "arguably viable" again you blame her for having sex.
Who should we blame? You? Will you take blame for her having sex? Of course not. It's not your life, your decision. It's hers. If she isn't ready to have a kid, for any reason, she should either go on birth control, a reliable method and use it responsibly and correctly like it is her responsibility to, or not even have sex. If your life is that bad and you really can't had a kid because of it, don't even have sex. It's the only way to guarantee 100% you won't get pregnant. She's an adult. She can, or should be able to, control herself and be smart about what happens to her own body. If you do have sex, yeah, it's your own fault. Who else's would it be? The guy can also be blamed, it's probably about 50/50, but that's it. It's no one else's problem, no one else should take blame but her and him.

Sure. But don't then expect me to feel sorry for her for and the situation she got herself into for whatever pathetic reasons you come up with. I don't feel sorry for her or anyone like her. The only people I feel sorry for are women who were raped. Everyone else makes a choice.

As long as her having control and what she wants to do with her body isn't an abortion?
If you want to ban late term abortions, fine. But a woman should then be allowed to deliver the fetus. If it's truly viable and a "living breathing person" than the hospital can keep it alive.
If it can't live outside the mothers womb then it's not viable.
I don't get why people care so much about what a woman does with her own body. There are way more important issues our government and law makers should be addressing.
Oh please. Look at some of the posts from some of these people.

I never said I don't agree with the right to an abortion. I actually said I do, though I don't like it.
