re: #505 The Vicious Babushka

Can someone in #ImWithHer #UniteBlue #HillaryBecause crowd tell me why killing a term baby is preferable over inducing labor,C section?

Well, for one, your question would be better directed to an OB/GYN doctor, rather than political committees.

Secondly, delivering a viable baby IS usually what doctors do - when it is feasible without killing the mother.

Third, “killing term babies” isn’t, AFAIK, anybody’s preferred practice - which is why is is done so rarely as to be a statistical fluke, and usually only in case #2 above.

I was going to close the comment with a rhetorical question about anti-abortion nuts being idiots, but the answer is just too obvious.
