"In this case it was the very people who were going to arraigned for the killing of the "Baby""

Are you OK?? Maybe you should see a doctor? I'm serious.

That site had nothing to do with anyone being "arraigned". It was a counselling site concerned with how to assist parents and prospective parents in dealing with an abnormality found in the fetus.

"I suppose you didn't read it before you posted it"

The reason I posted it was because I read it and determined that it showed that D&C's are generally done on what were WANTED fetuses--which were discovered (late-term) to have tragic abnormalities. Most D&C's are done for the best and most compassionate of reasons. The fact that some people in late-term abortions have sometimes become sufficiently attached to the fetus to (inaccurately) call it a "baby" simply makes it more poignant. It has nothing to do with whether or not the mother has the right to abort the abnormal fetus. That counselling site does not contradict the common knowledge that a pregnant woman has rights like all other people. Hell...it speaks frankly about terminating the pregnancy; so, my "source" certainly does not support your position in any way! They support the right of the mother to make the choice and they counsel how to support her in that choice--and how to understand the pain it always entails.
