I agree a) and b) can be reasons for a late term abortion and the decision should be left up to the woman and not dictated by government. But I'm not sure this guy wasn't strecthing the limitations to third trimester abortions under the Kansas law. Either way it's a very sad situation for the unborn and the family of Tiller.
