I know, but abortion in general is legal is what I was saying. I didn't think 3rd term abortions were legal in any state for any reason other than medical necessity, but I could be wrong about that.
EDIT: Did some research, and it is complicated. 36 states only allow 3rd term abortions to save the life of the mother, 4 only allow them to save the life of the mother or to prevent significant health problems in the mother, and 10 of them allow them for any reason, but require at least two physicians to approve and be present to keep the baby alive should the aborted baby come out alive (a la Gwahir's idea). What I read was worded funny in terms of the number of states which fell into each category, but US state abortion laws stand something like that.
