I never really understood that “family planning” bit. If you’re really into “planning”, you wouldn’t/shouldn’t/oughtn’t be getting pregnant accidentally and need an abortion. And if you’re into planning yet still needed an abortion, why would you wait until 6 to 9 months down the road?

Overall, I don’t think I’ve ever heard an explanation (reasonable or not) as to why we needed to expand availability of abortions beyond the three months that was fought so hard for in Roe v. Wade.

Because planned parent hood pays lots of money to make that a priority. Best government, and media, money can buy.

Exactly.

The body has to develop before it can receive the soul. Going over three months turns the destruction of a fetal body, which is bad enough, into murder.
