From what I understand, late-term abortions generally happen for one of two reasons:

1) The person couldn't get one earlier (due to money, distance, etc.)

I will never for the life of me understand why people think that "mental illness trolling" is an actual thing that people actually do. In a society that stigmatizes mentally ill people as badly as we do, people don't just have fake breakdowns for Twitter followers and The Lulz. Stop being so damn cynical. Actual…

OMG it really is!

BABY NAME THREAD. Time to post your best guesses.

You sound like a pro-lifer:

Hi! I'm the co-chair of Oxford's new campaign against sexual violence (ithappenshereoxford.co.uk) and would love to talk with you. Also Jagger misspoke on the statistic. It's actually 1 in 4 undergraduate women have been sexually assaulted.

I once shouted out "WHO THE FUCK IS FARTING" to get the jerk in front of me to stop befouling business class (it totally worked, by the way). I would definitely not have stood for this perv's behavior.

LUDACRIS!

Wow... just wow. I hadn't pegged you for a troll before this but I have to assume that saying that being raped was the best thing to happen to anyone has to be trolling. You pretty much sound like an ethnocentric prick.
