    This is in response to Cancer--because for some reason the 'Comment' option is not working for my computer--and I hate her mode of thinking so much I think it is worth the irritation of having me post as an Answer.

    First off, Cancer, you are a tainted, biased fool who feels herself intelligent. I'm not trying to make anyone listen to me--if you look passed your obvious past experiences in this topic--you would see that I am trying to get people to listen to themselves as opposed to someone's biased opinion and someone else's sense of morality. It's obvious you have morals that the issue of abortion goes against--and that you have been tainted by negative experiences with men (since you are so limited in thinking that men are the fault of abortion or that all men push sex). Truthfully, I'm not doing anything but asking others to think for themselves on this topic. If you want the kid, have it. If you do not, abort, adopt, et cetera. In some cases, adopting out will ruin the person's standing with her family--cause more problems--and thus abortion is logical. It's not for you to ask or plead for them to keep a child. Your God's morality doesn't play. In fact, you should abort more.

    No, late-term abortions are still legal in New Jersey.

    The states that have imposed *constitutional* bans on late term abortions (or more specifically, the D&X procedure) are as follows:

    * Arizona*
    * Arkansas* (also allows late-term abortions in cases of rape or incest)
    * California
    * Connecticut
    * Illinois*
    * Kentucky
    * Louisiana*
    * Maine
    * Maryland (also allows late-term abortions in cases of fetal abnormality)
    * Missouri*
    * Nebraska
    * Oklahoma*
    * Tennessee
    * Washington
    * Wisconsin
    * Wyoming


    So the following states have NO imposed bans on late term abortions or have passed bills that have been struck down as unconstitutional:

    Alabama
    Alaska
    Colorado
    Delaware
    Flordia
    Georgia
    Hawaii
    Idaho
    Indiana
    Iowa
    Kansas
    Massachusetts
    Michigan
    Minnesota
    Mississippi
    Montana
    Nevada
    New Hampshire
    New Jersey
    New Mexico
    New York
    North Carolina
    North Dakota
    Ohio
    Oregon
    Pennsylvania
    Rhode Island
    South Carolina
    South Dakota
    Texas
    Utah
    Vermont
    Virginia
    West Virginia

    Generally speaking 3rd trimester abortions are not allowed anywhere unless it is for medical reasons. At which point I would be discussing this with your doctor. Most places will not perform an abortion after the first couple weeks into the second trimester.

    If an abortion is to be considered it needs to be at the early stages of pregnancy. If the only reason someone is looking at late stage abortion is because the child is not wanted than the only real option at this point is to have the child and put it up for adoption. Having babies adopted out is not hard, it is only hard when you decide 2 years after you do not want the child.
