The Reality of Partial Birth Abortion: Part 1
Some people think it doesn't happen. Others say it is a standard aspect of "health care." Still others call it barbarism--
What is a "partial-birth abortion?"
This interview with Brenda Pratt Shafer, RN, who witnessed three of these procedures, will show you what it is. With the use of medically accurate diagrams and the instruments that are actually used, Brenda leads us through the steps of this act by which a child is delivered, all but the head, and then killed by the insertion of scissors into the head.
Learn, furthermore, about our nation's current policy on abortion (legal through all nine months) and hear Brenda discuss the question so many have: What happens to the bodies?

Every baby in the womb can be legally aborted at any stage of pregnancy in the United States, he emphasized, but pro-life supporters can and do affect changes for the better in the war against the culture of death in society.
"We can change minds and hearts through pulpits," he said, "and preaching and proclamation of the truth in the Word of God."
In negative ways, Father Pavone said, "Does it not affect the minds and hearts of our children when they learn that abortion is legal throughout all nine months of pregnancy? Doesn't it affect people's minds and hearts when institutions that are so respected in our society like the Supreme Court itself say that this activity is legal and constitutional? Of course it does. Laws and policies and court decisions affect minds and hearts. Who is in the White House, who is in the Congress, who is sitting as justices on the Court, affect minds and hearts, and if they're going in the wrong direction it impedes and confuses and darkens minds and hearts, not only in the United States but throughout the world."
"Some premies are born at 28 weeks and make it."
Well over 90% of 28 weekers make it. My 27 weeker didn't even have to be put on a ventilator. 50% of 24 weekers survive.
When the Louisiana law REQUIRING health inspections was passed in 1999, it was held up in the courts until Spring of 2004 (I believe, though it might have only been held up in the courts until the Spring of 2003 -- only 4 years of unsanitary conditions were legal).
At least two of the three groups, if not all three, fought this law.
There is a good link about this story:
The article talks about how Safe and Legal are only words...
The abortin industry will fight you tooth and nail about this issue. You are talking about imposing restrictions on abortion, i.e., making it safe and legal.
The Louisiana Law of 1999 is not the only example of this...
Most abortions occur between 8 to 10 weeks.
The word fetus means offspring. So if you have a fetus you have an offspring, i.e., child.
At conception, that child has a mother and a father. Science proves that the most unique point in our life is conception, not breathing air in our lungs...
The unborn breathes in oxygen through the mother's umbilical cord... And the baby gets nourishment from that same source...
Just as a born baby needs protection and food, so does an unborn baby.
Many women grieve over a miscarriage. Many women grieve over having had an abortion (delibrate termination of a pregnancy).
Best bet for the parents is for them to quietly engage in seppuku and remove themselves from the company of our society.
The killer doc there in Kansas will eventually be stopped from participating in this ritual demanded by Ba'al.
Show us a reference, and I don't mean Guttmacher propaganda.
This has been exposed as a lie. Pro-aborts are in charge of stats at the CDC.
They get a two-fer (two for one statistic) when a woman who has had an abortion dies because of a pregnancy.
There are woman now dying from breast cancer in their 20s because of the abortion breast cancer link.
There is a proven link between breast cancer and abortion -- especially with very young girls.

Certain forms of dangerous pregnancies (where the baby starts growing in the fallopian tube).
The two-for-one statistic that is commonly used to hide the damage of abortion is to count a death due to a complication of abortion when a woman gets pregnant after an abortion as a result of pregnancy.
Then the abortion industry claims that it is safer to have had the abortion because the previous abortion made the pregnancy unsafe.
This is well documented (the corruption of the CDC and the dangers of abortion).
In a country with 45 million abortions, many woman have had an abortion previously, and therefore now run the risk of high risk pregnancies because of the previous abortion.
The fruits of abortion are always a dead baby, possible injury to the mother of the baby, and high risk of breast cancer.
For someone whose breasts have not developed, having an abortion is like running a car into a brick wall.
The pregnancy starts a biological process that is abruptly terminated before the breasts are allowed to mature. Hormones are shut off, and apparently this is the abortion-breast cancer link.
Since Roe v. Wade ~ it's been legal to abort a baby at any stage of development ~ you must be confused if you think there's some other point of law involved in this.
If this is a true statement, surely you can find one weblink to support you, otherwise, go away newbie, and read the rules of posting on Freerepublic.
If you make wild, unsubstaniated accusations, you will have people posting factual information versus your opinion.
Do you have at least a college degree? Do you have any background in statistics? Did you learn in English how to quote sources?
Enquiring minds would like to know!!!
What black market? Haven't you read Roe v. Wade? That ruling literally legalized the so-called "back alley abortionist".
You don't really know much about this topic do you?
Abortions result in dead babies and sometimes in dead mothers.
One pro-life bumper sticker sums it up:
Abortion: One Dead and One Wounded
Check out Silent No More Awareness -- http://www.silentnomoreawareness.org for the horrors of abortion.
The women there have testimonies about what abortion did to them.
We are still waiting from a web link of some sort from you...
This is the Silent No More (awareness) website.
When an abortionist rips a female baby from the womb, which woman's right to her body are they protecting?
(If you are killing a male baby, it's okay, don't trouble yourself.)
I strongly suspect that you believe you are successfully harrassing a bunch of RTL folks ~ no doubt it gives you a sexual thrill.
You need to see a qualified physician who can help you get over your problem before you hurt someone.
We are not anti-abortion, we are pro-life.
It is the other side that is anti-life...
Being politically incorrect will not buy you into anything.
Time to start posting references to the LDI sting of Planned Parenthood.
As for the CDC fact, that was exposed on a Gospel of Life TV show. And it is also documented elsewhere by LDI...
All you have done is made wild accusations without facts to back up...
We are still waiting for some reference to something...
Where do you get your information -- the National Enquirer?
Or are you typing using Dan Rather's famous typewriter that wrote the infamous Bush memo about the Texas National Guard?
This baby was at 28 weeks. I have a nephew who was born at 24 weeks, and is now a very healthy 8 year old.
Not to mention the fact that yes, there will always be women who will want an abortion. However, there is no excuse for ANY woman to get pregnant in a day when medical advances have given us every kind of preventative birth control you can imagine. IUD, the pill, condoms, the patch, heck, you can even have some thing implanted in your arm.
If you are looking at abortion from a practical standpoint, and forget about the babies for a moment, it has become a from of birth control for young women. It should not be that way. Not only that, but young women really don't even care if they GET pregnant, because there are no consequences in their mind. They just get an abortion, and go to lunch. And I am not kidding.
This is not 1928. Women have many options, before they choose to have sex, to make sure that they do not get pregnant in the first place.
Obviosly the case of this young woman was different, but I am speaking generally.
