I’ve called it what it is and will continue to call abortion murder, whether it’s inside the womb or outside the womb. Now video has emerged showing George Mason University students (Yes, I’m sure Walter E. Williams is having a fit right now) signing a petition to legalize abortion after birth. According to the petition, which was signed on Wednesday demanded that lawmakers legalize “fourth trimester” abortions. In other words, they want to fully legalize the murder of a child that has been born.
According to Campus Reform:
The petition, which was circulated on GMU’s flagship campus in Fairfax, VA., just outside Washington D.C., by Media Research Center reporter Dan Joseph said it was aimed at sending “a message to our lawmakers that women have the right to choose what to do with their bodies and babies” even “after their pregnancies.”
“If you don’t know what fourth trimester is, it’s after the baby is already born,” Joseph said.
“Currently fourth trimester abortions are illegal in all 50 states,” he told students.

Was this petition a joke?
They would rather murder children than give them up for adoption.
I know my parents wished it was legal for the first 18 years of life. It certainly would have spared all of you my stupid posts.
Shame on them, taking advantage of the innumeracy of college students.
What’s next, signing them up for credit cards with 120% annual interest? Oh, that’s already been done....
University students ? D’oh They better watch it, some parents would take them up on that
"I brought you into this world, and I can take you out, and make another one that looks just like you."
Explains why liberals want sooooooo badly to be the party of the young - ‘cause they’re gullible, easy to manipulate, and stupid”.
There’s something Andy Kaufman-esque about this. Or maybe O’Keefe-esque.
“Was this petition a joke?”
Effectively yes. According to the article the petition was circulated by the Media Research Center. That’s a conservative organization if I recall, dedicated to exposing liberal bias.
You remember the guerrilla conservative activist a few years back that video taped an ACORN representative helping a supposed pimp and one of his prostitutes (the activist and a friend posing as such) apply for federal income assistance in order to open a brothel?
This case appears to be something along those lines. Create a fictional situation that appears downright horrible, then film liberals displaying their complete lack of morals and common sense.
Paging Peter Singer.
Was this the same guy who was passing around a petition to repeal the Bill of Rights?
No sure Griff Jenkins, and the fellow who is always on BOR are always doing those man on the street segments.
We want to publish the names of the students who signed this petition to alert any future employers that they may be hiring someone with only half a brain.
Does this really indicate a moral problem with college students? Or does it show that they are incredibly stupid when it comes to math? I am betting that 80% of the petition signers don’t understand what a fourth trimester is.
Products of our way too expensive public school system.
Given this “new youth”, I’d recommend going with this program as long as the age limit was set to 25.
This must be the “nu sku” that Fiona the Witness was referring to.
That would be the 78th trimester.
103rd trimester! Arragh! Think before pressing send!
Maybe it's the same people who went around asking people to sign a petition banning Dihydrogen Monoxide.
