"Throughout, the opinion refers to obstetrician-gynecologists and surgeons who perform abortions not by the titles of their medical specialties, but by the pejorative label `abortion doctor,'" wrote Ginsburg. "A fetus is described as an 'unborn child,' and as a 'baby;' second-trimester, previability abortions are referred to as 'late-term.'"

The outrage of someone who survived the procedure. How about if we call the victims "pre-born human beings" for legal purposes? Nothing technically inaccurate about that is their, Mz Brainsuck?

After the 24th week of gestation, a fetus, is a potentially viable human life. That is, a fetus of 24 weeks can survive and thrive outside the womb, with proper medical care of course.

That is a fact.

What these ignorant pigs will likely do next is get some scum bag lawyers to redefine the language once again.

Not that it matters, since they are willing to kill (so-called) fetuses in the 39th week of gestation or even later.

wanted child = unborn child, baby
unwanted child = parisite, tumor, tissue mass

I found this interesting. This is from a website where they were describing abortion. As you read through the procedure, you’ll notice they never mention even the words embryo or fetus. It doesn’t sound like terminating a pregnancy at all according to this:

D&E usually takes 30 minutes. It is usually done in a hospital but does not require an overnight stay. It can also be done at a clinic where health professionals are specially trained to perform abortion. During a D&E procedure, your health professional will:

Give you a first dose of antibiotic to prevent infection

Position you on the exam table in the same position used for a pelvic exam, with your feet on stirrups while lying on your back.

Insert a speculum into the vagina.

Clean the vagina and cervix with an antiseptic solution.

Give you a pain medication injection in the cervical area (paracervical block) along with a sedative. If the procedure is done in an operating room, you could receive a spinal anesthesia injection into the fluid around the spinal cord, which numbs the area between your legs, or general anesthesia, which makes you unconscious.

Grasp the cervix with an instrument to hold the uterus in place.

Dilate the cervical canal with probes of increasing size. An abortion in the second 12 weeks will need the cervix to be dilated more than required for a vacuum aspiration or D&C.

Pass a hollow tube (cannula) into the uterus. The cannula is attached by tubing to a bottle and a pump that provides a gentle vacuum to remove tissue in the uterus. Some cramping is felt during the rest of the procedure.

Use a curved instrument (curette) to gently scrape the lining of the uterus and remove tissue in the uterus.

Pass a grasping instrument (forceps) into the uterus to grasp larger pieces of tissue. This is more likely in pregnancies of 16 weeks or more and is done before the uterine lining is scraped with a curette.

Use suction, which may be done as a final step to make sure the uterine contents are completely removed.

Give you a medication to reduce the amount of bleeding with the procedure.

The uterine tissue removed during the D&E is examined to make sure that all of the tissue was removed and the abortion is complete.

Health professionals may use ultrasound during the D&E procedure to confirm that all of the tissue has been removed and the pregnancy has ended.

Webmd only talks of tissue and uterine contents, they don’t even mention the word fetus.

Euphemisms kill. Or at least they make killing easier. I hate euphemisms.

The ban does nothing but possibly kill women and the fetus will be aborted anyway because of a medical necessity. It is definately an anti-life ruling because the court basicly said they don’t care if it is deemed medically necessary by a medical professional, the doctor must use the more dangerous procedure. I would hope that doctors will protect their patient and defy the ban and use the procedure that’s safest. Pretty stupid ruling that defies common sense in my opinion.
