Planned Parenthood and other "pro-choice" -- meaning pro-babykilling -- groups have always maintained that one of their major goals [apart from ZPG? Ed.] is promoting "women's health". They want to save women, so they say, from the horrors of brutal and unsanitary back-alley abortionists.
Well, Virginia's legislature has just passed a bill that will impose new safety standards on abortion clinics. And guess what? Abortion advocates are screaming that the legislation will force most of the state's abortuaries out of business!
The bill requires abortion clinics to meet the same safety standards as hospitals. Nothing wrong with that, surely. After all, abortion providers have always been concerned about safety standards, right?
Turns out most of Virginia's existing abortion clinics do not currently have the equipment, staff, and facilities necessary to respond adequately to emergencies that could arise. An Associated Press account, generally biased in favour of the abortionists, observes that "the clinics resemble dentists' offices."
"Democrats and abortion-rights supporters said the change would put an estimated 17 of the 21 clinics out of business," the AP story reports. The abortion advocates evidently considered this a criticism of the new bill, rather than a reflection on substandard conditions in abortion clinics. But what does this reveal about their true motives?
Yes, killing babies is a business, and a good one too if you don't have to spend too much on safety.
