Researcher experiments on aborted babies in Finland

Experimentation on living aborted babies is now illegal in the United States. However, there is a history of these experiments being conducted in other countries. In the article cited below, the claim was made that Dr. Jerald Gaull, at the time Chief of Pediatrics at the New York State Institute for Basic Research in Mental Retardation:

“was making “periodic trips to Finland to “experiment on aborted but still living fetuses.”

Quote from the doctor:

“Rather than it being immoral, what we are trying to do, it is immoral – it is a terrible perversion of ethics – to throw these fetuses in the incinerator as is usually done, rather than to get some useful information.”

“New York Pediatric Specialist Dissects Living Unborn for Study,” Child and Family volume 9, number 3, 1970 Quoted in Suzanne M Rini. Beyond Abortion: a Chronicle of Fetal Experimentation. (Rockford, Illinois: Tan Books and Publishers, 1988) 31 to 32

A living “fetus” outside a woman’s body is generally recognized as a premature baby

Woman brings candles to her abortion, does ritual

From abortionist Susan T Poppema:

“The reality is that our clinic is a relatively placid place. Some women add to this sense when they come in and stage what amounts to rituals around the procedures. A patient came in recently with her partner and brought candles, clearly making the experience a ritual way of saying, “I am proud of myself for making this choice, also sad about the choice.”

Clinic worker: abortionist did “very racist number” on patients

From pro-choice author Carole Joffe interviewed abortion industry workers for her book The Regulation of Sexuality: Experiences of Family-Planning Workers:

Another counselor grievance concerned doctors’ interpersonal style with patients. Certain doctors were accused of being too abrupt or “insensitive” with patients… Bernice [a clinic worker] recalls that when “Dr. Stuart first came, he did a very racist number on a couple of patients. I called him on it, and he has changed.” Some specific accusations of insensitivity were related to the rejection of obese women for clinic abortions.… [These patients pose “special difficulties” in an emergency] Counselors felt that some doctors handled this admittedly difficult situation in a particularly mortifying way.

Prochoicer says abortion rights are more important than free speech and freedom of religion

Reproductive freedom is vital to humanity. It is even more vital than all the other freedoms that we cherish – freedom of religion, freedom of thought and speech, and the freedom to live our lives as we see fit. Humanity has these freedoms, or should have them, because they add to human happiness and make for a better world. So does reproductive freedom.

Alexander Sanger, the grandson of Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger

Alexander Sanger Beyond Choice: Reproductive Freedom in the 21st Century (New York: Public Affairs, 2004) 70

So in his mind, being allowed to have an abortion is more important than being allowed to choose your own religion, being allowed to criticize the government, or even being allowed to think your own thoughts. A society with mind control, religious persecution, and political oppression is preferable to one with pro-life laws.

This child is 14 weeks old and legal to abort in every state. Is the right to kill this baby more important than the right to free speech?

Former abortionist says unborn babies feel pain

Former abortionist Dr. Robert Siudmack.:

The baby has a brain. It has a nervous system. It has nerve endings. And it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to put the dots together that obviously the baby has the capacity to feel sensation and pain. In fact, when we do ultrasounds on many of these babies, when we want to try to get it to move, we’ll jostle the woman’s abdomen and the baby does feel the sensations of movement and encouragement to move, and it, in fact, responds to that. Studies have also shown that the baby responds to music, it responds to sound. This is all a function of the baby’s nervous system. So yes, the baby does feel, and can feel pain.

Abortion nurse: I tried to “detach myself”

Shelley Mehigan, 42, is a clinical nurse who has specialised in family planning for 18 years. She says that watching abortions was hard at first, but she became hardened:

The longer I work in this area, the easier it becomes for me to cope with the issues.

I’ve taken part in some terminations, but I try to detach myself so I don’t feel so bad.

Princeton professor supports abortion and infanticide

“[T]he location of the baby inside or outside the womb cannot make such a crucial moral difference” and that to be consistent, there are only two possibilities, namely, “oppose abortion, or allow infanticide.”

Princeton professor Peter Singer, who supports both abortion and infanticide.

Clinic owner decides not to tell women if they’re pregnant with twins

Abortion clinic owner Norma Goldberger:

“One doctor told a patient she had aborted twins and she replied that had she of known she would’ve continued the pregnancy. My clinic coordinator at the time said to me, “That makes no sense. She didn’t want one but when she found out there were two she wanted them?” We elected not to tell patients after that on the basis that the information would not be helpful.”

Or they could’ve told the women before their abortions, when clinic workers saw the twins on the ultrasound.

Prochoicer: we are more compassionate than prolifers

A pro-choice woman who had 2 abortions said the following:

“We must go on with our heads held high. During the April ’89 March for Women’s Lives, I felt real strong, real sure in my beliefs, I felt wonderful. I looked at those anti people and they were missing the point, they were ignorant, they were not as compassionate as we were, as human, they were so blinded… Women have choices in life and women cannot keep bringing children into the world that are going to starve and be a drain on the system or turn them into alcoholics. It’s just not fair to the child…. Children are too special.”

Patricia Launneborg Abortion: A Positive Decision (New York: Bergin & Garvey, 1992) 63

Apparently, pro-lifers are not as compassionate as prochoicers because they want to protect women and children from abortion. according to this pro-choicer, babies deserve abortion because they are too “special” to be allowed to live if circumstances are less than perfect. I wonder if this child could talk, would be be grateful to the ‘compassionate” prochoiers who did this to him?

Abortionist on stigma

Dr. Nancy Stanwood, abortionist:

There still persists to this day almost 40 years after Roe this perception that any doctor who would do abortions on a regular basis — not the casual, four patients once a year, but those who make it a part of their integrated practice — that they must be quacks or bad doctors. There’s this stigma of the abortionist that — two generations later — still looms large.
