@Pherick The new law legalizes abortion until birth for the mother’s “health,” which is not defined and has been interpreted by the Supreme Court to include, in essence, any reason. The measure also enables non-physicians—midwives, nurse practitioners and physician assistants—to perform non-surgical or chemical abortions. In addition, it protects abortion performers by moving abortion law from New York’s criminal code to its health code. While the Supreme Court struck down state laws in its Roe decision in 1973, a companion ruling—Doe v. Bolton—had the effect of legalizing abortion “on demand,” as pro-lifers have described it. In Doe, the high court provided an exception from state regulations of abortion for “maternal health,” which it defined as “all factors—physical, emotional, psychological, familial and the woman’s age—relevant to the well-being of the patient.”

@sunsporter1649 Do you have any proof of all of what you just said?

@Pherick that's just one source how many do you want?

@Joker [quote]The exception would allow women to abort unborn babies up to nine months of pregnancy for “age, economic, social and emotional factors, rather than the biological definition of ‘health’ that normally comes to mind,” according to New York Right to Life.[/quote]

Oh so thats what a Pro-life groups thinks? Wow. Who would have thought that?

@Joker Oh look another unbiased source from that article, which is just ridiculous.

[quote]“In early December, a resident of Saratoga County was arrested for punching the stomach of a woman who was 26 weeks pregnant in an attempt to cause a miscarriage. The man was charged with abortion in the second degree, but under the RHA, the attacker would not have been charged with a felony,” according to the Catholic News Service.[/quote]

@Pherick Not true. The woman can "claim" she is financially or emotionally unable.

@Riverman Where? Where have you found a real source that says a woman can claim that and it makes it true?

The only I found was posted above, by a pro-life group. Nothing has been challenged by a court yet.

Everything people are talking about here is just prattle.

This is even going beyond the fact NO FUCKING woman is carrying a baby past 24 weeks (thats 6 months) and then goes, "Eh you know what I don't want this any more". Its a great narrative, but it just doesn't happen. Late term abortions are used when the mother's life is at risk or the fetus is not viable.

@sunsporter1649 That is a lot of words to just say nothing.
