    Midepristone?
    Okay, I just learned about midepristone.

    It's "A steroid hormone used to end a pregnancy during the first seven weeks. This medication is available by prescription only."

    Is this legal in the USA/Canada?

    Just wondering...

    Personally, for my own reasons... I don't like it.

    Now, I'm not one of those who believes that life begins at conception, that's another topic for discussion, but it's still abortion nonetheless... and by poisoning at that!

    Hmm.. have you yourself been around women whom have taken this pill? Would you say it's more dangerous than other methods of abortions?

    To be honest, I'm not that informed when it comes to abortions..

    All I know is the suction method and now this pill.

    I also have a question:

    Is this legal? This type of abortion shouldn't be!

    Partial-Birth Abortion
    Five steps to a partial birth abortion:

    1.Guided by ultrasound, the abortionist grabs the baby's legs with forceps.

    2.The baby's leg is pulled out into the birth canal.

    3.The abortionist delivers the baby's entire body, except for the head.

    4.The abortionist jams scissors into the baby's skull. The scissors are then opened to enlarge the skull.

    5.The scissors are removed and a suction catheter is inserted. The child's brains are sucked out, causing the skull to collapse. The dead baby is then removed


    That makes me really sad...

    No that is not legal!

    And it makes me very mad that back alley abortionists do this.
