Hey Jess,

Great video column. I agree with your definition of "disgusting proceedure" in relation to this subject. Thx for putting it out there.

From your old babysitter and a good friend of your mom's - Debbie

very will made video, the truth on this subject is ugly, does not matter how they packages it! Good job!

plenty of time to get a normal one. and I'm not talking aobut this 4 month stuff, I'm talking 6-7-8 months. It's like buying a new car and smashing. Ah but anyway, we will never be able to properly discuss this topic until people quit having their own agendas.

Wrong and right are subjective. Who are you to say 'what is wrong and what is right" on behalf of everyone?

It also amuses me how people lead themselves to beleieve life is some sort of ultimate gift and death is the worst of things when a lot of you beleive in some loving magic man that takes care of things after you die. Life is not sacred and death is not the worst of things.

That being said, someone that waits until the abortion has to be partial birth is pretty dumb when they have...

@YOYOdaMOOSE You once again said that a fetus can not feel pain. Have you seen a fetus being aborted through a ultrasound. And, new studies researching womb activity have scientist split if they do experience emotions. Considering that babies come out of the womb crying and laughing, well . . . They have video on you tube displaying this. Also, Do you remember crying at 1 years old. Just because you can not remember something, does not mean you did not experienced it.

@lightsoutnow30

the fetus can't feel pain so I was pointing out its wrong to try an up the emotions by pretending abortion is painfully killing babies

[lightsoutnow30]

@YOYOdaMOOSE Did you know studies show that babies not only can feel pain, but can display feelings showing happiness. Also by your logic, an adult that can not remember what it feels like to feel the pain when they were 1, 2 , 3 years old, then they cold have been terminated because they don't really feel pain because they can not remember it when they grow up. come on now. There are many logical fallacies with abortion.

@conservativemama09

Yes i'm serious, the mother doesn't have to let it develop into a living being

[conservativemama09]

@YOYOdaMOOSE

Are you serious?? So, by your logic, if a mother gives birth and decides that she doesn't want to be a mom after all, then it is her prerogative to kill it, as long as it isn't painful. That is disgusting!

[cherylcamargo]

I agree 100% with you..i feel abortions is murder....

[YOYOdaMOOSE]

painfully killed? noooooooo the baby cant feel pain at that point, also the childs quality of life (before birth) is unimportant because the mother, as the giver of life, has the right to deny life
