Hey, Kate, wandered over from the Pleasure Pastures and saw this. Very very upsetting! :(
That's just wrong. The doctor'll probably only get 2-5yrs for it. Poor baby! :(
But actually, at 23 weeks its not a late term abortion. That's still second trimester. Florida abortion law doesn't regulate abortion until 28 weeks.
And the presidential ban that Obama reversed was over giving funding to international groups that provide info on abortion. Article here. As far as I know the Partial-birth ban is still in effect.
