re: Gun-control comparable to abortion

Quoting ~~My Pet Wussy~~:" If you are going to be anti something it's probably wise to atleast understand how the thing you are against is actually performed."

My SIL believes that the fetus (even early fetuses) looks like a tiny full term baby and the doctors rip it to shreds and cause a slow, painful death.

I've told her she's incorrect, but she doesn't care.

Facts don't seem to matter to some people.

Major facepalm moment.

It doesn't even start looking fetusy till a good ways in.

People are so uneducated when it comes to abortion. They picture this gruesome procedure where a conscious baby is ripped to pieces screaming silently and wondering why mommy doesn't love it. In reality it's a fairly simple, quick procedure... not to mention, at the gestational age legal abortions take place, the fetus is not conscious, viable, or even able to feel pain. It's more or less like killing a shrimp... except I'm pretty sure even shrimps have some form of consciousness.  

I get the general idea of what she is saying and i understand her point. But, her point is poorly made.

I saw someone post this. I de-friended instantly. Even if I were pro-life, it's just in bad taste and disrespectful to the people who lost children.
