Abortion laws are often based on an assumption of viability, with the cut-off being set at the point where babies would be likely to survive outside the womb.

However, this is merely the culture of death's smokescreen, they BELIEVE in killing anyone at anytime that a marginally passable reason can be put forward.

I think it's impacted some of the pro-abortion crowd on FR as well.

Amazing pictures of those little feet.

They'll probably argue that the abortion can be even safer and easier now that the fetus is completely free of the mother.

Probably anytime up until the 9 month time frame.

Amillia is still three weeks from her natural birth date and could legally be aborted killed in many states if she had remained in her mother‘s womb.

Fixed it.

Abortion laws are there to meet a legal standard, not a medical one. If viability was really a criteria, there'd be a lot of C-Sections instead of Partial Birth abortions.

This event will change no one's mind. But I guarantee it will rachet up the shrillness of the pro abortion crowd. They are probably already making strategy for preemptive PR strikes as we speak.

FWIW This is exactly what Sen. Joe Lieberman has said - that as technology improves and the age at which a premature child can survive outside of the womb will push the viability window open further and further thereby, if consistently appled, pushing the term limit for abortion back along with it.

About half of the babies born at 25 weeks will survive. Abortion laws are often based on an assumption of viability, with the cut-off being set at the point where babies would be likely to survive outside the womb.
***As the age of viability shrinks, soon enough our medical science will have the capability to transfer wombs at any point in the cycle prior to the traditional age of viability. That would remove any excuse for having an abortion.

It would be worth sticking Amillia with a needle and filming her reaction, just to have it on file the next time the pro aborts say vivisection is ok because the fetus doesn't feel pain.

Pro-choice is all about the 'right' to a dead baby regardless of how many weeks alive the unborn child is. Of course, the abortion defenders will lie and say it isn't, but their debates always wind down to that lowest denominator. They want females to have the right to a dead baby.

The Camel's nose has passed the edge of the tent, he's standing in the room. In Britain, under socialized Medicine, you can't get surgery if you still smoke, or if you are obese (coming to a hospital near you). You lose the weight, or you quit smoking (who judges that ?). It will come believe you me, right here in these United States.

There is as much proof that second hand smoke is the direct cause of disease as cow farts cause "global warming". All of these bogus scientific theories are political, NOT scientific. I'm a scientist, with research credentials and I know. The socialists made in roads with the tobacco law suits and they think that with a liberal bench and a bunch of lawyers, eager to make bug bucks and a name, they can stop all of us from doing anything they don't like.

Simple logic defeats the socialists every time, and it doesn't take a research scientist. Read and think, anybody can understand.

You got that right. This "viable outside the womb" is an utterly, utterly arbitrary standard. If I, an about 200 lb. man, but my hands over a small adult's mouth and nose, I could easily suffocate them to death. Are they then no longer "viable outside the womb"?

A baby needs some one to feed it. But a not yet fully formed human may need a respirator or incubation chamber. Compare those forms of assistance with my failure to close off someone's breath.

These forms of life are all human because they have human DNA and are growing. It is a dirty lie to establish some form of arbitrary "viability" as a standard for what's alive, when any one of our's viability could be withdrawn at any time in our adult life.

Yes..the real reason is inconvenience, regret, self-centeredness.
The viability issue is a smokescreen.

I only wish God had brought us Amilla before the 2006 elections, so that the Kansas Attorney General's race could have been impacted by it.
