While I'm not familiar with all the abortion laws in each state, I was under the impression that the late term abortions that Tiller was doing were illegal.
I pinged some others who might have an idea on that.
Murder is illegal and the doctors and women who participate in them are morally wrong, legal or not.
Abortion is the only kind of murder that is permitted in this country, so it's kind of a contradiction, declaring murder illegal and abortion legal
Tiller and the other partial-birth abortionists get around the partial-birth abortion ban by getting another doctor to agree that the woman’s life is at risk.
If that were true, it would be horrific enough, but it's worse.
There were various elements to Terri Schiavo's murder which were unique and brought her story to the forefront, but there was nothing unique about the fact that she was starved and dehydrated to death for the "crime" of having a severe brain injury.
People with brain injuries are routinely starved and dehydrated to death, in every one of these United States. See my profile page for more details.
