During D&E abortion, the baby ‘bleeds to death as it is torn limb from limb’

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy once quoted abortionist Leroy Carhart in a dissenting opinion for the high court. Carhart was a party to the case and had given testimony regarding what happens during a D&E abortion procedure — the most common second trimester abortion done in the U.S. Justice Kennedy directly quoted Carhart and summarized other portions of the abortionist’s explanation, keeping it brief and pointed so the reader could understand what happens:

Dr. Levatino’s video has been viewed over 31 million times, on Facebook and YouTube. After seeing the video, many viewers react in this way:

States continue to ban D&E abortion, which is also called dismemberment abortion — for good reason. However, in the vast majority of states, D&E abortion is allowed and remains the most common second trimester abortion procedure in the United States.
