Damn. I thought abortion was all painless and what not. Seeing their little hands is really sad.  

What Mother Theresa said really summed things up pretty well. They can't make this painless? This is just so uncool.

The thought that those kids were hurt or that they didn't even get a chance to make something of themselves is what bugs me. I'm still not pro life or pro choice yet.

if you are still pro-choice after watching that, then you need to go to hell right now. you don't deserve to be alive.

..Wow... Youre a smart person arent you...
Being Pro-choice doesnt mean you love it when people have abortions. It means i think you should decied something huge like that for yourself, cause its your life.

"88 percent of abortions are performed before the end of the 12th week of gestation -- the first trimester. About 10 percent are done between weeks 13 and 20. About 1 percent are done at week 21 or later."

I'm not saying that PBA isn't horrible, but it's also illegal in most places in the USA (and likely Canada). The small 1% or less that have it done do have it for health reasons because it's not practical at that point to have one simply for a "change of heart", it would cost thousands of dollars and take weeks or months to find a willing Doctor. Sometimes the parent(s) do not find out until the late second or early third trimester that their baby has some sort of defect or problem such as Downs Syndrome, which makes it basically unadoptable and a huge strain to the unready parent(s).
