You know what? I don't believe one word of it. You're just another leftist making stuff up. These kinds of fairies tales are so old they are petrified but that's all you've got.

I wouldn't send my dog there .
If they have the means to do so (parents helping with costs) they can always self pay for a visit with a private doctor as a cash patient. On average, they would pay $100 once a year for that annual exam. Or they could get the free exam at the County Hospital. It's not that bad of an option, imo.

Oh, I get it! Only pro-lifers have a right to line up anecdotes from women who've had abortions that they later regret and parade them in TV ads. But people who have first hand knowledge of back alley, illegal abortions gone wrong don't count in your bias brain and shouldn't be a part of the dialogue.

We all know that Planned Parenthood is not the only place to get birth control.

New video out. Mention of "intact fetal cadavers". Sorry, but this is disgusting. And that blob of goo tissue argument is bs at this point. There is zero defense of this

Why would you close a clinic that provides education and birth control, isn't that counter productive. Also I don't believe many of these women at the low end have easy access in their areas.

It's common sense. They are one of the largest providers out there. So it's going to affect womens access for a time until something else fills the void.

I imagine a lot of them do self pay, that's true. I still self pay my primary care doctor because she doesn't even take insurance. I was just pointing out that medicaid doctors are few and far between.

We get it.

Except for the very few EXTREME fundamentalists, your "what about the incest victims" line isn't credible anymore.
The same can be said of the "late term abortion" lines from anti abortionists.

And you are any different ? Seems to be that you lack any ability for independent thought yourself.
