[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The PPs above sound like nazis rationalizing the killing of Jews. [/quote]

Trying to equate the Holocaust with abortion is one of those tired, crazy anti-choice arguments. The Jews were full on persons. A fetus does not receive legal recognition until viability. [/quote]

3rd trimester fetuses are viable.  [/quote]
And no one is having 3rd tri abortions for funsies. It's anti-woman, anti-choice propaganda. [/quote]

Given that the third trimester starts after 28 weeks, I think it's fairly safe to say that almost no third trimester abortions happen, period.  If a woman's health is at stake after 28 weeks then the baby is removed by c-section or induced (because it has reached the point of viability).  If a baby has died in-utero, then the woman is induced, but that is not an abortion.

Late-term abortions -- abortions after 21 weeks to the point of viability -- are almost without exception because there is something catastrophic happening with the pregnancy. And if a woman seeks an abortion at 29 weeks with a pregnancy that is not viable, it's almost certainly because she didn't have access to an doctor who would do an abortion earlier.
