The Silent Scream (Don't address fetal pain unless child may survive to remember it- abortionists)

Murder's OK if they don't feel it.....

This makes me sick to my stomach.

The legislation would require abortion providers to tell women who come to them for late-term abortions that the fetus might feel pain and that the woman has a right to ask that the fetus be anaesthetized for the procedure. Although evidence suggests that the unborn child feels pain by the age of 20 weeks (if not sooner), abortionists are not required to provide women with the information that the fetus might suffer pain during an abortion procedure, pain which could be eliminated by dispensing anesthesia directly to the fetus.

I just don't get it -- how do they not see what they are saying and advocating?

[tongue-tied]

Wow. You're kidding, right? If this passes, the choice people will absolutely freak. If it is legislated that there is actual pain during an abortion....slippery slope and yada yada. They are doomed!

Doesn't make much sense to use sedatives at an execution then.

HARD TRUTH: ABORTION KILLS BABIES!

THE ABORTION COUNTER

[Mike Darancette]

This is grotesque.

[Mount Athos]

That's what I'm thinking. If the law became widely known, could have massive impact on the attitude of people towards abortion.

[Kryptonite]

The Journal of the American Medical Association recently published the results of a meta-study that surveyed over 2,000 studies on fetal pain. While the authors of the study concluded that fetal anesthesia should be administered during fetal surgeries, they did not recommend the same for fetal surgeries which will result in the intended demise of the fetus. They reasoned that the child being aborted wouldn't survive to experience or remember the effects of any possible pain, but the child who was intended to live might recall the extreme experience of pain and be seriously affected by it.

That is truly barbaric reasoning by the AMA. In other words, it only matters to them whether a baby will live to remember the excruciating pain. The fact that they experience excruciating pain doesn't matter at all to them.

It is even at odds with the abortionist who counseled expectant mothers to deliver a deadly but apparently painless toxin before the abortion procedure, and of course it is odds with the 100% of expectant mothers who consented to her suggestion.

It's interesting that in Europe, if you were to abort your dog, cat, horse, cow, etc, etc....you have to make sure the baby animals are not in pain prior to the abortion. It's against the law to do it otherwise.

What does that say?

[SteveMcKing]

"So what?"

[Kryptonite]

I don't know everything it says but it makes me sad that we're that far behind the curve.

[gpapa]

Perhaps the day will dawn when Planned Parenthood provides the whole truth

It will be a cold day in hell when that happens. PP only wishes to continue the abominable practice of abortion, denying life to children of American citizens. The saying the truth shall set you free is not part of PP's vocabulary.

[metmom]

Wait! How can they be using the terms "fetus" and "child" and "children" interchangably? How can they not get it? Sheesh!

Right now my cat is in the bathroom cupboard, very ill. I seriously thought of putting him down this afternoon to spare him further suffering, but the vet thinks there's hope. So we'll try a bit longer. I have to force-feed him every three hours and force an antibiotic pill down his throat every morning. I'm doing it, because I pray the little guy'll pull through. But it makes my heart break and makes me sick to see him suffer so. Now I'm adding to his pain, trying to get him over the hump.

And that's just a stupid cat! How these cold-hearted blankity-blanks can even *think* the way they do, makes my stomach roll. I could no more imagine ripping a fetus apart than I could imagine shooting a toddler. Yet, we're all supposed to be just peachy with it. What we're dealing with are highly educated psychopaths.

pingout tomorrow.

Deserves repeating.

*Hope you cat feels better. :)
