>>Yes, the whole situation was a tragedy and even though my personal opinion was that the woman was an idiot for waiting as long as she did (my attitude toward 3rd trimester elective abortions is pretty much "You waited this long, you can wait a little longer and put the baby up for adoption"), in reality this was a snafu'd medical procedure and should be treated as such by the AMA. What the law wants to do about it is up to the law.

What about the first part of her reply?:

That's really beside the point. Alan stated the reasons why he was offended at the post not the post's subject matter, and, given Sam's responses, it also appears to me that he posted this strictly so he could grind his axe on abortion.


>Your last point raises a serious moral question, doesn't it? The baby that was about to be aborted, all of sudden is human.
