Abortion IS brutal. It is intended to kill a fetus. Period. I don't understand why you think this method is particularly more brutal than say, a D&C or Suction Aspiration whereby the killing of the fetus is done inutero. The brutality and the result are identical!
MOST people are averse to partial birth not because it is more brutal but because it is more commonly performed later in the pregnancy. A D&C can be performed quite early.
Your logic is faulty.
And for this reason alone do I believe that the complete ban is wrong. Just like millions of other people, you equate "partial birth" with killing a full term baby. This is not necessarily the case.

Platitudes like the one you offer are no different - and no less incorrect - than the jackass part-time Christian who says, "I'm going to heaven because I'm nice to people." It so misses the point.~Impugn
