Clinic worker “uncomfortable” about repeat abortions

From an clinic worker:

The patients who have had more than three abortions are few and far between. But, the fact of the matter is there are women who will present in a clinic five, six, seven times for a procedure.

This makes a lot of people, myself included, uncomfortable on some level.

It makes one wonder – pro-choicers insist that abortion is not the killing of a baby, merely the removal of some cells or the termination of a pregnancy. A fetus is not a child, they say. If this is true, then why do so many clinic workers get upset when women have repeat abortions? If abortion is benign, and does not harm women are kill children, why is it wrong for woman to have five or six or seven or eight abortions? Or 20 abortions? But the clinic workers know that abortion is bloody, dehumanizing, and results in the dead body of an aborted baby. And so do many other people, deep down. This is why so many pro-choicers as well as clinic workers are troubled by repeat abortions. To more read quotes from clinic workers expressing distress at women who have multiple abortions, go here

On the making of pro-choice commercials

What a pro-life bill (About tax money going to fund abortions)was being considered, NARAL (a major pro-abortion group) developed two commercials to sway public opinion. This was after they conducted a major survey to see what would have the most impact. The commercials that were made misrepresented the facts. They decided to show them to reporters:

“The first commercial was too crudely dishonest to parade before reporters, so she [the woman running the press conference) showed them the second. It opened with a chastely dressed girl walking home from school with books under her arm. “Imagine,” said the male narrator. “Your fourteen-year-old child, your own sweet daughter, is raped and pregnant. She’s frightened, confused, and so are you.” On the screen, the girl sobbed in her mother’s arms.

The narrator went on: “Imagine , too, the government says they’ll make the decision. Never mind Never mind the circumstances. You, your doctor, your preacher, your daughter have no say in this personal, private tragedy.” As he spoke, this panel of authorities appeared on the screen. The girl sat between her father and her mother as a gray-haired physician explained that he couldn’t help them end the pregnancy.

As the narrator enumerated the people excluded from the decision- parents, doctors, preachers- the visual image switched from a wide shot of the family and doctor to consecutive close-ups of the dismayed father and mother. The nightmare dissolved as the narrator concluded, “Don’t let this be a bad dream. Vote against Amendment 65.”

….Pro-lifers called the ad “a straight out lie” noting that the amendment didn’t ban abortions. But Hickman [the pollster] had calculated correctly. With a week remaining and just $24,000 available for their own commercials, pro-lifers had no chance to launch an effective rebuttal.”

Later, a representative of NARAL:

“She admitted that her second commercial, which had portrayed Amendment 65 as a threat to Arkansas preexisting ban on abortion funding, was designed to confuse voters.”

“I Gave In” to an Abortion

From one woman who had an abortion and regretted it.

“The more I thought about being pregnant, I realized there was a life in me, and I wanted to give birth to it. But my husband told me, “Either you have an abortion, or leave you. You can raise it by yourself, because I don’t want any more children.” Not being strong enough to do what was right, and to afraid to go it alone, I gave in.”

David C Reardon Aborted Women: Silent No More (Westchester, Illinois: Crossway books, 1987) 31

A survey of women who had abortions done by Reardon showed that well over half felt pressured into having an abortion by someone else, most commonly the baby’s father.

Post-abortion Chaplain: “I am the mother of a dead child”

“I remember the first time I heard someone say, “Having an abortion didn’t make me any less pregnant; it just made me a murderer, too.”

Oh how that ripped at my soul, and still does as it makes me come to the understanding that I am the mother of a dead child.”

NOW Ignores Complaints about Dr. George Tiller

“Luhra Tivis was disturbed at events at Dr. Tiller’s clinic. “When I went to the leaders in NOW in Wichita, and told them what was going on, they said, we agree with you, but we can’t rock the boat.” She says that a woman from the local chapter of NOW wrote a piece for the newsletter criticizing Tiller, but they pulled it. They said they were not going to rock the boat. NOW is not normally known for being reticent about rocking the boat where women’s welfare is concerned.”

National Abortion Federation opposes regulations to make abortion safer

Sometimes pro-choice groups oppose commonsense regulations that would make abortion safer. Rachel MacNair described the following in her book:

“When 60 Minutes ran a piece about Hillview abortion clinic in Maryland, showing the women who had been killed and maimed, they made the suggestion that perhaps greater regulation was necessary. To this the head of the National Abortion Federation, Barbara Radford, said, “We want to make sure that women have choices when it comes to abortion services. And if you regulate it too strictly, you then deny women the access to service.”

On the same report, when pro-choice Maryland State Senator Mary Boergers wanted legislation to regulate clinics because of this scandal, she lost pro-choice support. When she acted for all the world as if she believed that “safe and legal” really meant safe, she was called on the carpet. She said that if you ask questions, “they then treat you as if you’re the enemy.”

Arguments for Slavery, Arguments for Abortion

In an anthology of essays by African American pro-life activists, Reverend Walter Hoye compared the arguments used to support abortion to the arguments used to support slavery.

For example:

“In 1867, Buckner Payne, Publisher: “The Negro is not a human being.”

In 1984, Rabbi Wolfe: “A fetus is not a human being.”

*****

In 1900, Professor Charles Carroll: “The Negro is… one of the lower animals.”

In 1985, Dr. Hart Peterson on fetal movement. Summarize that it was: “Like… a primitive animal that’s poked with a stick.”

*****

In 1903, Dr. William English: “The Negro race is… a heritage of organic and psychic debris.”

In 1980 Dr. Mariti Kekomaki: “An aborted baby is just garbage… just refuse.”

*****

Southerners during the time of slavery: The black slaves are property.

In 1986, attorney Lori Andrews, summed up the abortion argument with this statement, “People’s body parts [embryos] are their personal property.”
