Would you (even the serious anti-abortionists among you) find this testimony compelling?

That is one hell of a reach even for a whack job.

Anti abortionists have been making up a lot of stories about fetuses in the trash in Washington DC.

This reminds me of the author who wrote that some people’s deceased relatives communicate with them by causing the porch light to blink. Except that they were not trying to turn stomachs.

I notice, though, that people behind this speaker are wearing masks. So a little crossing of political boundaries there as they ward off, er, infection. Or maybe it’s because they couldn’t keep a straight face.

Many states and even Canada burn medical waste which does include aborted fetal remains. The BC Health Ministry admitted it.
Her delivery is rather dramatic which is I’m sure the intent, most Pro-Lifers already know all that.

Again with the late term abortion tactic, sure am glad I am a Canadian!
This woman is as crazy as that M Green.

Technically it’s legal in most places, or was, as incineration was an approved method of disposal. In the UK they got a ton of backlash and stopped including that fetal tissue.

Why do they always come up with grisly 3rd trimester abortion scenarios???
Nut case.

What’s wrong with burning medical waste @KNOWITALL?

KNOWITALL's avatar

@Dutchess_III I guess people were unaware of all that includes and were offended.

@Dutchess_III – 3rd trimester abortions are the most gruesome, so they like to put that out. Nevermind that they are the most rare, and usually only needed to save the mother’s life.

Exactly @RocketGuy. By law you can not have an elective abortion in the 3rd trimester. Why keep bringing it up.
