Students Sign Petition To Legalize 4th Trimester Abortion


Recommended Posts

Several students at George Mason University (GMU) signed a petition on Wednesday demanding lawmakers legalize “fourth trimester” abortions.

The petition, which was circulated on GMU’s flagship campus in Fairfax, VA., just outside Washington D.C., by Media Research Center reporter Dan Joseph said it was aimed at sending “a message to our lawmakers that women have the right to choose what to do with their bodies and babies” even “after their pregnancies.”

“If you don’t know what fourth trimester is, it’s after the baby is already born,” Joseph added in a video showing him collect the signatures.

“Currently fourth trimester abortions are illegal in all 50 states,” he told students before asking them to sign his petition.

Most student responses varied from “okay” to “cool.”

One concerned student asked if the procedure would “cause harm to the child.”

“Well the child wouldn’t be there anymore,” responded Joseph. “It’s abortion.”

That student then signed the petition.

Joseph said that after one hour he was able to garner fourteen signatures.

“That is a lot for the summer because there aren’t as many people on campus,” he said in the video.

Some smart College kids right there.

Just for the record a lot of people walk around Philly asking for people to sign petitions all the time. They are so annoying and petitions are so meaningless I often just sign them quickly with a smile to speed up the process if I have to. Sometimes I don't even use my real name given the fact that all they want is a signature with no traceback.

I think abortion is sick and wrong under most circumstances, be it in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or "4th" trimester. If you dont want to be pregnant and have a baby, get your fella to wrap it up or take other precautions before you do the no-pants dance.

This is the future of USA?

really?

a bunch of students who can´t fu##$¨#& without using a condom?

really. if you want fu#¨$#& that´s super BUT if you don´t want babies after use a dam condom or similar method...

fake or not this petition is a demonstration of how "students" are doing their "things", being too worried to legalize cocaine and crack, now 4th trimester abortion. what´s the next point? declare Kim Jong Ill a national hero?

I´m 100% against abortion with very dew exceptions such as rape victims or babies without brain or any desease that will not allow them survive outside the uterus. other than this no way...

it´s the woman´s body but from the point she is pregnant the baby has rights too so any abortion must be considered a murder since the baby cannot retaliate/protect him/herselft from the "mother"

thank God this thing will never happen here. our military simply will not accept...

I'm not saying this should always be done, I'm saying it's preferable to abusing the child or letting it slowly starve to death because you can't afford to feed it. This mostly applies for 3rd world countries who don't have the same access to resources to adopt out babies that we do in Canada.
