I know that the fetus is alive during the process most of the time because I can see fetal heartbeat on the ultrasound.

Share on FacebookAn abortionist was asked under oath whether or not he told women considering abortions that their babies would be dismembered in the abortion procedure.
THE COURT: So you tell her [the woman] the arms and legs are pulled off. .. Do you tell her?
THE WITNESS: We tell her the baby, the fetus is dismembered as part of the procedure, yes.

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said in an interview that she was surprised at a 1980 court ruling that prevented the restoration of Medicaid funding for abortions, because, in her opinion, when Roe V Wade was decided:

It’s interesting to speculate who these people are who, according to Ginsburg, “we don’t want to have too many of.” It doesn’t take a big leap of logic to assume that most of “these people” are in fact minorities.

“Now this little person, at 12 weeks, is a fully formed, absolutely identifiable human being. He has had brain waves for at least six weeks; his heart has been functioning for perhaps eight weeks; and all the rest of his human functions are indistinguishable from any of ours.”

Share on FacebookIt is, in my experience and my opinion, less risky to put a hole in the base of the skull. Because the contents of the skull are liquid the skull contents may often drain out spontaneously as soon as there is a hole in the skull.”

Abortion supporter David Lykken supports preventing the inner city poor (who are often minorities) from having children:
“If you live in the projects on welfare, then you can’t have a baby. And that sounds awful. … But the question is, if you live in a plague area, have you a right to bring a child into a plague area?”
David Lykken, professor of psychology at the University of Minnesota Quoted in William Norman Grigg. “Are You Fit to Be a Parent?” The New American, January 23, 1995, pages 12 to 14
