Edit: The video has been changed to the full length account of Dr. Levatino.
I think my previous thread on this was moved due to not having enough content in the OP. (Only thing I could guess after looking at the forum guidelines).
Looking to see what pro choice advocates think when they see what this doctor is describing. I think people tend to think that this kind of an abortion is a myth or isn't really as bad as it sounds. I think for lots of people hearing it from someone who performs them is eye opening.
I can think of little justifications for this type of "procedure". Only very rare and very extreme cases should ever need something like this as far as I can tell. Perhaps the baby isn't going to survive and is likely to kill the mother. Something like that. Otherwise I feel strongly this should be illegal. It would be nice if the majority could agree on clear common sense guidelines here. I would prefer that all abortions are very rare because people view any human life with much respect. The unborn should have rights that the mother can't just take away because the circumstances aren't great for her.
This topic tends to bring up other issues like sex education in America and access to birth control. I am completely on board with making all of that better. Anyone who isn't interested in helping young girls make better decisions is part of the problem. Same goes for young men who act wrecklessly and get these girls pregnant. Thanks and let me know what you think of the video.
