This is face value sensationalism.

From a responsible ethics standpoint, this is thin ice for either side.

If the law remains existing as it is, the first doctor would be forced to terminate the fetus, in womb.
This would nullify physician #2's role entirely. The second doctor would never have anything to save. Unless the mother is birthing Broly, Thanos, or some mystical being so powerful they are able to fend off death, as a fetus.

Why would you save a ridiculously and I am sure permanently damaged fetus?!!
Why would someone want to intentionally bring more people who will only intensify suffer..
who the hell is just pro-abortion? It's called pro-choice because we believe in the mothers right to choose rather than some #ty government telling us what to do. I personally think anything late term is disgusting. But maybe I should get educated enough to tell others what to do with their bodies. Or maybe just some religious indoctrination will do.

I always thought the pro-abortionists were just uneducated and naïve, maybe a little stupid with no education towards the sciences.

I just feel as if I don't need to dictate what others do. That is all.
