WATCH: Students sign petition to legalize abortion after childbirth
Campus Reform ^ | July 25, 2013 | Oliver Darcy

Posted on 07/25/2013 4:52:39 PM PDT by Kaslin

Several students at George Mason University (GMU) signed a petition on Wednesday demanding lawmakers legalize “fourth trimester” abortions.

The petition, which was circulated on GMU’s flagship campus in Fairfax, VA., just outside Washington D.C., by Media Research Center reporter Dan Joseph said it was aimed at sending “a message to our lawmakers that women have the right to choose what to do with their bodies and babies” even “after their pregnancies.”

“If you don’t know what fourth trimester is, it’s after the baby is already born,” Joseph added in a video showing him collect the signatures.

Students Sign Petition to Legalize 4th Trimester Abortion

“Currently fourth trimester abortions are illegal in all 50 states,” he told students before asking them to sign his petition.

Most student responses varied from “okay” to “cool.”

One concerned student asked if the procedure would “cause harm to the child.”

“Well the child wouldn’t be there anymore,” responded Joseph. “It’s abortion.”

That student then signed the petition.

Joseph said that after one hour he was able to garner fourteen signatures.

“That is a lot for the summer because there aren’t as many people on campus,” he said in the video.

Amazing how the choice of words can confuse some mental midgets.

“Fourth trimester abortion” is a deliberate attempt to hide the reality, and some people with their heads up their a$$ fall for it.

Pregnancy is 3 trimesters, not 4. It’s like saying the eighth day of the week. You can put the words together, and some a$$holes think you are describing a new reality.

Not surprising, tho. “Social Security” fooled a lot of people. “Affirmative action” fooled as many. “Patient protection and affordable care act”

Feminazis will stop at nothing to avoid being burdened by a child.

Even more deadly and sickening is that this is the youth of America, and they can vote. They are not just low-info, they are less then low intelligence.

Hence “trimester”. If there were four time divisions, they’d be “tetramesters”, and college students are supposed to know stuff like this.

I think that there are people who will sign any petition you give them, and you will find these people on college campuses. I remember that Penn and Teller got signatures on a petition to outlaw Dihydrogen Monoxide by informing potential signers that the military made great use of it

All this proved is that the 14 who signed the petition either didn’t actually think about what they were being asked or did it as a laugh.

What ever happened to the great books and the Liberal Arts, included in curricula to teach the great thinkers of history and with luck refine the student?

Watch idiots on Leno. Last night a woman said she’d pay $150 for a pair of 3D sun glasses. This was after she tried them on and said everything looked more in focus. I guess the dummy normally sees everything flat. These people vote.

After a plane crash on the Mexican/US border, where do we bury the survivors?
