The tragedy is that these politicians absolutely refuse to hear from their constituents on this issue.  

We wonder why there is violence and abuse in the world.  Late term abortion is child abuse at its most violent -- yet many politicians .. including a local Federal legislator .. are "proudly pro-choice" even when it comes to late-term abortions.    

It is just disgusting.

(CNN) -- The husband of an Indian dentist whose death sparked anger over Ireland's
abortion laws told an inquest on Monday that her requests for a termination for her miscarrying
fetus had been denied.
Praveen Halappanavar told the hearing in Galway that he was told that because Ireland is a
Catholic country, an abortion could not be done while the fetus was still alive.
He was one of the first witnesses to give evidence at the inquest, which is expected to last
several days.
The death of Savita Halappanavar at University Hospital Galway on October 28 prompted
anger in Ireland and elsewhere and sparked demands for Ireland to introduce new abortion
laws.
Doctors and nurses from the Galway hospital are also due to testify at the inquest.
Praveen Halappanavar said as he arrived at the courthouse that he hoped the inquest
would get to the truth.
He has previously said that his wife was advised her unborn baby would likely die, and
that she was in extreme pain.
Savita, 31, went into the hospital on October 21, complaining of back pain. She was 17
weeks pregnant at the time.
Three days after the request for a termination was made, the fetus died and was removed.
Four days later, Savita died of a blood infection.

The scathing grand jury report in 2011 on Dr. Gosnell’s clinic, the Women’s Medical Society, on Lancaster Avenue, detailed how despite complaints and malpractice suits, no inspector had visited in 16 years. The clinic was raided only after a tip that it operated as an illegal prescription mill. A month after the report, Gov. Tom Corbett fired six employees of the Health and State departments.

In the witness box, clinic employees said live births occurred regularly, and they believed Dr. Gosnell’s explanation for snipping necks with surgical scissors — to “ensure fetal demise” — was accepted practice in late-term abortions. An abortion doctor who testified for the prosecution said such practice was unheard of.

One witness, Steven Massof, testifying under a plea agreement to avoid first-degree murder charges, instructed jurors to feel the backs of their own necks and said, “It’s like a beheading.”

Another former employee, Adrienne Moton, sobbed as she described the death of Baby A, aborted when his teenage mother was about 29 weeks pregnant. Ms. Moton was so upset she took a cellphone photograph of him, which was shown in court. She said Dr. Gosnell had joked that the baby was big enough to walk to a bus stop.

Ms. Moton, who also testified under a plea agreement, said she cut the neck of Baby D, who was delivered into a toilet while its mother, given a large dose of a drug to dilate the cervix, waited for Dr. Gosnell to arrive.

Another clinic worker said she followed Dr. Gosnell’s instructions and cut the neck of Baby C after it moved an arm. The doctor told her was an “involuntary movement.”
