Both of my kids were basically 2 months early and they are now perfectly healthy teens. I cant even imagine what goes through the heads of people that think its perfectly reasonable to slice and dice a baby in the womb at that age or even greater. And I'm no militant pro-lifer either but barbaric is barbaric.
Babies born two month premature are at the third trimester, and it is very difficult to get an abortion at that time without a very pressing medical reason. There is no "slicing and dicing", this would be a surgical procedure through the abdomen that would remove the fetus whole. And since at the third trimester the fetus would likely be viable, there would be an attempt to bear it live, not "sliced 'n diced." No woman who's seven months pregnant just waltzing into Planned Parenthood and getting an on-demand abortion. That's just not what they or any licensed abortion clinic would do. There is such a thing as a medical ethics board, and performing a late-term abortion without a highly justifiable medical reason would get a doctor's license pulled almost immediately.
Even during the first trimester, when it's referred to as an embryo and has no chance of viability outside the womb, or near the start of the second trimester, when it's referred to as an early fetus and has very little chance of surviving, abortions are performed not with D&C (dilation and curettage, ie "slicing 'n dicing") in the vast majority of cases here in the US, Canada, and Europe, but are drug induced. The embryo is expelled due to uterine contractions and is whole, but not at all viable. Don't forget: good ol' nature is the biggest abortion doctor, in the first couple of weeks of a normal pregnancy, only about one out of four embryos survive without being miscarried. Even at ten weeks it's about a 1-2% chance.
But I'm sure you knew all of this, or could at least made the attempt to research it before blowing off with your bit of ignorance.
