And she was 7 months pregnant. I’d say that is definitely too late for an abortion in the minds of an overwhelming majority of Americans…
Tf does it matter? 2 weeks, 28 weeks, what's the difference?
Abortion is legal in Nebraska, where this occurred, through the 20th week.
Fetuses are viable outside the womb at 24 weeks.
She even still went through labor and gave birth in this situation. She just took medicine to kill the fetus first. At that point is it really absurd to say she could have just not taken the meds and given it up for adoption?
Well, the difference is about 26 fuckin weeks.
