Abortion advocates frequently claim that the majority of Americans support Roe v. Wade<\/em>, and want abortion<\/a> to remain legal and unrestricted, even through all nine months of pregnancy. But many people also are not familiar with what an abortion actually entails. When they see it for the first time, what happens?<\/p>\n

One woman was interviewed on the street about her views on abortion. “I personally wouldn’t do it, but I wouldn’t restrict anyone,” she said, smiling. “I wouldn’t tell anyone that they couldn’t do it.” She was then shown a video of a first-trimester surgical abortion<\/a>, known as an aspiration or D&C (dilation and curettage) abortion. The video, a 2D animation of the procedure narrated by former abortionist Dr. Anthony Levatino, shows how the abortionist forcibly dilates the woman’s cervix, and then uses a suction catheter, 10-20 times stronger than a household vacuum, to suck the child from her mother’s womb. He then uses a curette to scrape the lining of the uterus to ensure nothing is left behind.<\/p>\n
