Aren’t partial birth abortions “morally bankrupt”?

May 31, 2019

Stephanie Murphy recently decried pro-life legislation as “morally bankrupt.”

But—wait—what about the Illinois state house’s plan to legalize partial birth abortions? Doesn’t Murphy think killing partially born babies is “morally bankrupt”?

As voters continues to turn their backs on these disgusting policies, perhaps she should speak up.

BACKGROUND ON PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTIONS

To Conduct A Partial-Birth Abortion, The Abortionist Must Puncture The Base Of The Baby’s Skull With A Sharp Surgical Instrument. “Partial-Birth Abortion is a procedure in which the abortionist pulls a living baby feet-first out of the womb and into the birth canal (vagina), except for the head, which the abortionist purposely keeps lodged just inside the cervix (the opening to the womb).  The abortionist punctures the base of the baby’s skull with a surgical instrument, such as a long surgical scissors or a pointed hollow metal tube called a trochar. He then inserts a catheter (tube) into the wound, and removes the baby’s brain with a powerful suction machine.  This causes the skull to collapse, after which the abortionist completes the delivery of the now-dead baby.” (National Right To Life, www.nrlc.org, Accessed 5/31/19)

Once The Skull Has Been Punctured, The Abortionist Inserts A Suction Machine Into The Wound To Remove The Baby’s Brain. “Partial-Birth Abortion is a procedure in which  the abortionist pulls a living baby feet-first out of the womb and into the birth canal (vagina), except for the head, which the abortionist purposely keeps lodged just inside the cervix (the opening to the womb).  The abortionist punctures the base of the baby’s skull with a surgical instrument, such as a long surgical scissors or a pointed hollow metal tube called a trochar.
