- You asked for "a rational justification for killing a late-term
- fetus that would not also justify killing a newborn infant."
- I provided one - removing it from its genetic mother.
-
- You may now claim that you are too stupid to understand this.
- I really don't care. If you continue, however, to claim that
- the justification for late term abortion is the same as the
- justification for infanticide, I will remind you of your
- support for late term abortions which result in fetal death
- in this thread. (Not that I think that your credibility can
- be further damaged.)
