Good piece on the Gosnell case here:

Column: Illegal Abortion and ‘The Way of the World’ | Tina Dupuy
Who would go there to get a medical procedure? Desperate women. Poor women. Due to increased restrictions on abortion procedures: out-of-state women with no other options.

There were Planned Parenthoods within walking distance.

Good, they are getting the story out about Gosnell.
I'll skip it, but I wish you an enjoyable night at the theater, Janelle.

As far as "back alley" abortions deaths, numbers are inflated, and most deaths were from a lack of antibiotics. After antibiotics were in regular use the number of deaths plummeted, just like every other death rate.

In fact in 1972, when it was illegal in 80% of the US, there were 39 deaths from "back alley" abortion. See:
https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/00001467.htm

Deaths from abortion in 1972 per the CDC:
24 were related to a legally induced abortion

39
were related to an illegal abortion

You were more likely to die from a LEGAL abortion in 1972.

This myth of millions of women dying every year from "back alley" abortions is just that: A MYTH.

As predictable as the 'less government' hypocrites who seek to have government control people whenever it suits their agenda.

I'm providing factual information backed by CDC statistics. I know most who are pro abortion know very little about it.

You're welcome.

As you can see in this thread, some of the resident Leftists see nothing wrong at all with what that monster did. Those that think like that should have been one of his victims.

Bull****. I've grown tired of the inflammatory abortion nonsense that Janelle posts all the damn time. Gosnell's clinic was a horror show, and the case was shocking, but his clinic was nothing like most clinics. I had an abortion at 21 weeks because of nonviability due to profound fetal defect, a story I've told many times at C-D. My experience was nothing like Janelle pretends every abortion must be. Not only was the staff professional, well-trained, and compassionate, but the facility was immaculate. I'm the daughter of an OB. I know the difference. Gosnell is in prison as he should be, but he is not the poster child of abortion providers.

Your point must be really weak when you have to lead with such an obvious lie.
