Proposed state law would protect women's reproductive health | lohud.com | The Journal News
Mr. Mehldau's reliance on long-discredited scare tactics and junk science, like the fictitious link between abortion and breast cancer and the supposed dangers of abortion, makes it clear that his argument is not with the substance of the proposed legislation, but rather with the legality of abortion itself. Abortion is one of the safest medical procedures available. Since abortion became legal, maternal morbidity and mortality rates decreased drastically. In fact, recent studies show that the rate of abortions is actually higher in countries where it is illegal or severely restricted as where it is legal. The only difference is the impact on women's health and lives.
When my religious and personal rights are denied to me because I'm going to be forced to finance the murder of unborn babies,etc. then everyone will understand haow we have been manipulted. Someone should check statistics! There are now MORE women's deaths due to this so called the "safe" abortions then there ever were before it was legal but of course those facts will be suppresssed.
what a nightmare!!!!!!!!!!!
