KS Attorney General finds illegal late-term abortions

According to the Operation Rescue Website:

Wichita, KS – Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline told news talk show host Bill O’Reilly that the medical records that were produced by two Kansas abortion clinics all indicate that later-term abortions were done for reasons other than exceptions found in Kansas law.

K.S.A. 65-6703 states that there are only two exceptions to the Kansas ban on post-viability abortion. “(1) The abortion is necessary to preserve the life of the pregnant woman; or (2) a continuation of the pregnancy will cause a substantial and irreversible impairment of a major bodily function of the pregnant woman.”

Kline indicated that none of the abortions in the 90 medical records currently under review by his office were done for the two exceptions listed in the statue.

O’Reilly indicated that he had an “inside source” that has given documentation to The O’Reilly Factor program proving many late abortions done by Tiller and another Kansas abortion mill were done for “depression,” in violation of Kansas law.

This is one of the many reasons why "health exceptions" in abortion laws render abortion legislation virtually useless. Doctors either find their way around them, using a very broad and subjective definition of "health", or they just ignore them outright, and everyone involed in the abortion acknowledges there's no real health issue, but they keep it hush to keep their racket going.

George Tiller is an absolutely notorious and brutal killer of unborn children. Last summer, I documented a case where he killed Baby Tess for the "crime" of having Cystic Fibrosis.

Liberal MP Paul Steckle is seeking to render legal protection to this vulnerable population of unborn children through a late-term abortion Bill C-338. I don't know if it'll see the light of day in this Parliament. It'd be too bad if we couldn't at least have a debate. It's about time people were made to realize that unborn children are people too, and deserve legal protection. Just because a baby is sick doesn't give his mom the right to kill him.
