Another comment by the anti-science left. This is truly a monstrous view that allows for infanticide both before and after birth. In Ms. Perry's eyes, it's ok to smother an infant if Mommy & Daddy don't want the child.  For many on the pro-choice side, this is ultimately what abortion is all about; not cases of rape/incest, not the mother's life, but rather they do not want anyone to be inconvenienced by the consequences of their actions and are prepared to snuff out the most vulnerable among is to achieve that end.

Kyrie eleison

If a pregnant women thinks that giving birth to the child will be an incovience to her, that is just as a valid excuse to have an abortion as rape, incense and her health. I applaud the great Melissa Harris-Perry on this segment , she is always brilliant and thought provoking.

But apparently life begins when the mother says it does Roll Eyes This isn't even about abortion. This is about infanticide outside of the womb. For the record do you support a woman's right to smother an infant in it's crib as Ms. Harris-Perry?

Anti-science left? Yeah, you're not going to be able to flip that one around, nice try though. The abortion argument needs to stop, pro-lifers need to get a life and get over it.

A sound argument. I especially liked the part where you addressed my argument instead of just stating you are correct and going ad hominem.... Oh wait.

When you start off by LYING and trying to state she is in favor of a mother smothering her infant in a crib you should expect that kind of response.

The implication of Ms. Harris-Perry's views* is support for post-natal infanticide, but trust me, I have no illusions about Ms. Harris-Perry's mental gymnastics abilities.

2) Parents can believe that the child isn't alive/isn't wanted long after birth
3) Ergo, infanticide is morally acceptable so long as the parents don't feel the child is wanted and/or alive.

There is no implication of any kind.  You are simply making crap up.

At least try to address the logic I stated. Sticking your fingers n your ears and going "La La La La La" isn't doing anything. What exactly about my argument is incorrect?

We all know when life begins. It begins the same time our lives began - when we were born. The time and date on our birth certificates.

And yes, before that time, whether or not a fetus qualifies as life should be left up to families. Your alternative is to leave it up to the government and to a bunch of old men who've never been pregnant and never will be. Who is really being inhumane here?
