Not sure what the real underlying reasons leading to the new Texas abortion law are all about - can't be about saving lives because Texans believe in shooting/electrocutions and other forms of doing away with people. Can it only be about getting votes? Displaying Texas macho manliness? Whatever - it goes hand in hand with other forms of political hypocrisy. The pols claim they're doing this for women's health.....and where did they get their medical degrees? (Guess they don't know that pregnancy comes with its own problems and it means nine months of disturbed body functions - certainly not a picnic of wellness.)
Doctors have to perform in surgi-centers? Have hospital privileges? How come these rules don't apply to all the doctors/staff at free standing emergency type set-ups in Texas?
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists took a full page ad in the Austin, TX newspaper - basically saying to the pols - get out of our exam rooms - what goes on there is strictly between patient and doctor.
Problem is that abortions have been performed since antiquity - and will always continue. Against your religion? Fine. Don't opt for an abortion, and/or have all the babies you want. But don't impose your choice on the women who don't want to carry a pregnancy to term. It's their bodies, their rights and their choices - not to bring an unwanted child into this world.
BTW: is it possible that eliminating legal abortions is just what the underworld ordered? Mafia-like criminals standing in the wings - ready to collect mucho dinero performing risky procedures under unsafe conditions? Crazy? Far fetched? Hmmmm.
