Regardless of your views of abortion, since the fetus is no longer viable I don't understand the outrage. What's wrong with using it for research? That research might eventually help living adults who are suffering from disease or other illness.
Sorry, but this seems like manufactured outrage to me.
Yep, if we're going by logic, then this is a non issue. If we're going by deep held religious beliefs then it is an issue.

Manufactured outrage? When partial-birth abortion lends itself perfectly to the harvesting of organs? And, when that's not used, an abortionist states, on record, that she'd "crush above and below the liver" to keep that organ intact?
I am pro-abortion. What strikes me about this situation though is how it seems to contradict the common talking point about late term abortions being so rare as to be almost non existent. If these harvested organs are usable then the babies must have developed to a rather advanced state before they were killed.
What if the research done on that organ could someday save the life of your 4 year old?
I am sure if you dig deep you’ll find Joseph Mengele saying the same thing at some point in his defense. Listen, I don’t care if you cure cancer tomorrow. You can’t harvest body parts. It is repugnant, immoral, criminal and revolting. It is two steps away from becoming an industry, if it is not already, where poor women get pregnant to sell the child’s organs. Same thing happened with child support payments for unwed mothers. Having more children became a source of income.
"Now, at Auschwitz, with full license to maim or kill his subjects, Mengele performed a broad range of agonizing and often lethal experiments with Jewish and Roma (“Gypsy”) twins, most of them children."

They're rare, but they still happen, when the fetus is non-viable and/or the mother's life is in danger.
Edit: the point usually made is that they occur for medical reasons, not slutty sluts killing their babies to enable their partying.
Everything is a business. The main problem I see here even for those who are Pro-choice is that some doctors could be choosing to alter abortion procedures to preserve organs because they can make more money out of it. Of course they would just say they would charge more because "storing and shipping organs is more expensive"
I can't stand conservatives and their views about gays, science, guns, religion etc but this is the only issue I agree with them. Abortion is unethical. Yes having a bunch of unwanted babies is bad for society but aborting them for economic reasons is nothing more than eugenics.
They lie as much as the Dems do. They should change parties
