Regulating third trimester abortion is just a camel’s nose under a tent to regulate abortion earlier in a pregnancy.
Agreed. It's totally stupid, and indicates a fundamental misunderstanding by the anti-choice people.
If a woman is in the third trimester, do they really think she didn't want the baby? Really?! If you're that far along, you wanted it (almost always). So something happened, something changed. Probably something very serious. And they want to mess with the health of the woman and/or fetus? That's just crazy, and stupid. No doctor or woman is going to intervene in a third-trimester pregnancy unless it was critically necessary.
Which is why there should be NO RESTRICTIONS on abortion. It's up to the woman and her physician. There are a myriad of situations and complications that cannot be codified into law, and we shouldn't even try. It just endangers women's health, and victimizes them.
