Summary
From the Paper:
"Partial -Birth Abortion is the unjustified killing of an unborn child in the most gruesome way possible. This is the intentional killing of a child by partially delivering it for the sole purpose of terminating its life. This is achieved by inducing the delivery of a child by allowing the cervix to dilate to only 8 centimeters. The physician vaginally delivers some portion of the intact living fetus until the fetus is partially outside the body of the mother, for the purpose of performing an overt act that the physician knows will kill the fetus.
