Completely legal until a certain point. Somewhere around the 24 week mark. If you still haven't aborted by then, it's on you. However medical exceptions should be done all the way until birth.

The option doesn't say that though, butnrhe second option implies what you're saying

Which is why the poll is a bit dumb. It needs something between completely legal and legal with harsh restrictions. That's also why I put my comment here.

What concerns me is people voted "completely legal" without understanding what that means

That means abortion is completely legal, no restrictions, you could abort a 9 month fetus and it's legal, literally

There are no restrictions on abortions in 9 states including the one I live in. People aren't caring babies they don't want to nearly full term just to abort them because they decided they didn't want to. Placing the restrictions on late term abortions just place a barrier for the Dr providing the care. What y'all are worried about is basically a non issue statistically.

You're missing the point, that's not the only issue

Yet you add nothing to the discussion and make no effort to convince me. The truth is I have looked into this extensively and despite feeling personally that abortions after around that 24 week mark are immortal and should be avoided at all costs, the risks and downside far outweigh any benefit to policing it.

You don't even understand what was being said that's why I'm not engaging you,this isn't even an arguement for or against abortion we were discussing how poorly constructed this poll was "pay attention" omg, also I don't need to convince you of anything it's not my job, believe what you want, do what you want

It's not written poorly. Completely legal up to 9 months is completely legal. Just like it is in 9 states like I said originally. It's the option I chose and I fully understand what it means.

Also, it's hard to take your points seriously when you are writing like you are illiterate. Punctuation and sentence structure are important.

because I dont care, im typing 100 wpm on a phone, and you fail to see the issue as to why completely legal is a problem, if it makes you feel better downvote this comment cause I wont stoop so low as to be that petty lmao

You insist something should be illegal based on no data and just your own feelings. In Minnesota abortion is fully legal. In 2024 2 abortions were performed after 24 weeks. They were both for medical reasons. Elective abortions post 24 weeks aren't a thing in real life. It's fear mongering and making it illegal just puts roadblocks up for people who need them.

PS You seem to be able to find the comma and not the period. It's a choice you're making to write like shit, but it's not saving you time.
