Strongly support, Michael? You really want to understand, Michael, right? Thank you for using the usual substantial debate technique ever popular here, of tell me what I think.

Your PBA gory detail recitations don't make me uncomfortable. Much worse has been sent my way, in case you haven't noticed. There are innumerable medical procedures that would make most people quite ill, if they saw them. But the line is that "PBA" was invented to make sure the fetus was dead for legal reasons, and that is by all indications ridiculous.

Once more, for the road, and the truly dense people who allegedly "really want to understand".

Table 2. Fetal Deaths, 1992
Gestational age Number
20­23 weeks 8,152
24­27 weeks 4,567
28­31 weeks 3,635
32­35 weeks 4,107

Those statistics make me uncomfortable. They have nothing to do with abortion, but something's got to be done with the formerly living fetus. Whatever procedure used isn't going to be pleasant to think about.
