I mean, you either value the life of the mother more than the fetus or you don’t. For most people this is an easy choice.

You did catch the part where it was for protecting the mother’s health in high-risk situations, right?
:adios:

I get it now, I don’t really believe that’s what they’re passing tho. I think it will be a loose law like medical marijuana. Find the right doc and they’ll hook you up. I would obviously feel differently if my wife’s life was on the line, but I don’t trust that will be the case.

adds a provision for abortions at any time if the baby would not survive the birth. Additionally, the act permits abortions at any point if it is necessary to protect the mother's life or health.

Jesus, Wacky, think about what you're saying. If a woman lives in a state where abortion is legal and she keeps the child until labor is imminent, then it's pretty obvious she wants the kid. And if it gets to that point, there's not a single rational argument that isn't predicated on a life or death situation that would be able to dissuade her keeping the child. It's how we are wired biologically.

I think many of the sober voices in this thread are mischaracterizing the changes to the law, a bit.

I guess there really are weirdos out there that thought that people were carrying babies to full term and then just deciding they "didn't want them" and getting a doctor to abort the baby, not just using this absurd scenario as a cynical rhetorical device.

Am I to believe that prior to this law doctors in NY were being forced to let mothers die in order to ensure their children lived?

That's not even a remotely common occurance - it's a total 6- to 8-sigma event. It's in our mythos precisely because of how bonkers it is.

Man, you don't want to go down this road of eff everyone else because it hasn't happened to me.  I wish you all the best but the fact you are both older than normal child years puts your risk of complication higher.  I know in my heart of hearts everything will go well but man, just think about what you said here.

Technically, NY prosecutors previously had the OPTION to prosecute doctors who performed late-term abortions necessary to protect the health of mothers. My guess is that section of the penal code was rarely if ever enforced. This change simply removes the discretionary mechanism.

So the law is about protecting doctors then I guess.

Technically women could have been subject to the law, as well.

you’re a single bachelor. You have no rough ridin' idea how this effects anyone. However, since you love inserting yourself into every discussion that has nothing to do with you or your current situation, let me tell you, having sex, which hopefully you get to do sometime soon in your life makes choices. I hope that when you eventually have the opportunity you take care of things either way.
