Abortionist has "contempt for feminism"

In an article of the OC Weekly, the author talks about the political beliefs of Edward Allred, an abortionist who owns a chain of abortion clinics. He describes his “contempt for feminism”:

Although his gambling and abortion practices may not publicly fit today’s “family values” GOP, Allred calls himself a Reagan conservative. He has proclaimed nothing but contempt for feminists and lesbians, and he opposes women getting equal pay for equal work. And while he has unabashedly supported the continuation of Medi-Cal payments for abortions (government funds that go directly to him and other abortion doctors), he favors the elimination of Aid to Families with Dependent Children (which goes directly to poor patients). The government has a fundamental obligation, he has said, to pay doctors for abortions to prevent overpopulation.

This abortionist is not a fan of feminism or champion of women. He also says:

Population control is too important to be stopped by some right-wing pro-life types. Take the new influx of Hispanic immigrants:their total lack of respect for democracy and social order is frightening. I hope I can do something to stem that tide; I’d set up a clinic in Mexico for free if I could. . . . The survival of our society could be at stake.

R. SCOTT MOXLE “The Abortionist Who Funds Pro-Life Republicans” OC Weekly JUNE 25, 1998

Allred’s contempt for feminism, disdain for women, and racist view of Latinos show that he is no champion for human rights.

Fetus is not "blob of jelly" as newspapers claim

Author Mary Kenny wrote:

“Looking back on the newspaper cuttings of the great abortion debate, the editorials in serious newspapers such as the Observer and the Sunday Times constantly referred to the foetus as “a blob of jelly”, “a piece of tissue”. But in the years in between the science of embryology has developed extraordinarily, and the “blob of jelly” is now known to have human organs all in place after eight weeks and an entire nervous system after ten weeks. I have watched many abortions taking place, and in the early stages the operation is so swiftly destructive that nothing can be properly perceived by the naked eye. Into the second trimester (after thirteen weeks) however, it is evident that this is a very tiny human being. Once past twenty weeks, the baby begins actually to try to resist the needle, which draws away its amniotic fluid.”

Men sometimes weep when women go in for abortions

“The Project Rachel office in College Park is in the same building as an abortion mill. In fact, says Julia Shelava “At their College Park office, she said, they often see men in the waiting area while their girlfriend is getting an abortion.

“They look so sad,” she reflected. “My heart just aches for them. I approach them, and often they say, ‘I really didn’t want her to have this abortion.’

“I say, ‘Did you tell her?’

They say, ‘I told her I would support whatever she wants to do.’ That’s what the world tells him he should say. “We’ve had men in our office weeping while their son or daughter is being aborted.”

Nurse pressures woman with kidney stones to abort baby

A woman named Valerie Finnegan told the following story in a comment on a Live Action article:

They lie about what abortion really is- routinely, and sometimes they do worse. I was in the ER for kidney stones when I found out I was also pregnant. First thing that happened when the pregnancy test came back wasn’t treatment for my kidney stones. No, a nurse came back and did nothing but badger me about aborting. I demanded to know how that was going to help me, and she shrugged and said that it might relieve the pressure of passing my kidney stones. I had enough medical knowledge back then to figure that was horsepucky. I asked her (already suspecting the answer was no) if I was going to die without an abortion. All she did was shrug and say that I was at high risk for miscarriage and abortion would be “easier.” She didn’t treat me. She didn’t even examine me. All she did was push abortion. I asked her if she was going to help me with my kidney stones and save the baby, and if she wasn’t, to leave, not bother me, and get someone who will actually help. She left, but came back later, once I got the treatment I needed complete with ultrasounds of my kidneys, my kidney stones, and my baby at six weeks. I said that no thanks to her, I managed to get the help I needed. She said, “You’ll have a miscarriage anyway.”

The kidney stones broke up in passage. I went home with some safe pain relievers. In about a week, I felt better. Thirty four weeks later, I gave birth to a baby girl.

How many women are pressured like this by medical personnel, and give in?

If Valerie gave birth to her daughter at 40 weeks, she would have been six weeks pregnant when the nurse encouraged her to abort her baby. This is what her baby would’ve look like then::

Doctor Removing miscarried child: every finger could be counted

Pro-life doctor Melissa Ogle, MD, describes using a suction machine to complete a miscarriage on a woman at the end of her first trimester. This was not an abortion because the baby was already dead. However, she was using the same equipment that is used for an elective first trimester abortion.

In this situation, the cervix is forced open with an instrument called a dilator. A suction tube is then placed within the uterine cavity. The suction is turned on, the amniotic sac is ruptured, and the fetus is removed. As our bodies at this stage are well-formed, it was necessary for me to identify each body part as it was evacuated. Despite the knowledge that the baby was no longer alive, it was indeed the most difficult procedure I’ve ever performed as an obstetrician. As each portion of this little person was accounted for, my heart sank deeper and deeper. Many tears were shed during the procedure – both mine and those of others in the room. I imagine that every individual present in that operating room was taken to a deep place within their soul as that little one was removed limb from limb from its place of security. Each finger could be counted, each rib clearly seen

Woman delivers live baby after abortion

Nola and Anders had no qualms about abortion, When Nola’s boss told her to abort or quit her job, they decided to have the pregnancy aborted. Nola was told by the abortionist that she would pass the “discharge” at home, and she should flush it down the toilet.

Nola describes what happened::

“Nothing to it, right? Only it didn’t work out that way. I was laying down on the sofa trying to relax. The kids were here, sitting on the floor, watching TV. All of a sudden, blarp! This huge gush, blood all over the place. I tried to move, but I couldn’t. Right there, right there in front of me – in front of the kids, for God’s sake – this little baby. Alive. I could see his heart beating. A little baby boy.

Anders didn’t know which way to go. The kids were screaming, I was screaming. I think he shut them up in the powder room. I couldn’t touch it, but I couldn’t stop looking at it. Its heart was beating until, slowly, it stopped. I didn’t know it would be like that. Nobody told me it was a baby.”

Nola was rushed by ambulance to a hospital - she was hemorrhaging. She had a “lengthy” hospital stay.

Show tunes whistled by abortion doctor

This is a story told by Heather, from Tennessee. She describes how the abortionist whistled show tunes as he did her abortion:

“I already had two daughters. Neither was planned, and it never, ever occurred to me to terminate those pregnancies. I was brought up with a very religious background. Now I’ve had two abortions…. My husband and I were having financial problems and considering separating. I just had to shut my conscience down. The doctor was grotesque. He whistled show tunes. I could hear the vacuum sucking out the fetus alongside his whistling. When I hear show tunes now, I shudder. Later, he lost his license. A few months ago, I got pregnant again. My in-laws have been helping us out financially, so we have no choice but to involve them in our decisions. They gave us $500 cash to bring to the clinic. I felt very forced. I felt like I was required to have an abortion to provide for my current family. Money help is a manipulation. I’m crazy in love with my daughters – imagine if I did that to them? It’s almost too much to open the door of guilt and shame because it’ll all overcome me. In the waiting room, there was a dead silence that was hard to describe. Everyone was holding in their emotions to a heartbreaking degree.”

Teenager had 3 abortions, parents never knew

Abortion clinic worker Brenda Pratt-Shaffer she took care of a teenage abortion patient. The teenager had 3 abortions:

One of the things that really bothered me that day [At the abortion clinic] was a fifteen-year-old girl having her third abortion. Her parents did not even know that she was there. She was laughing the whole time she was in the clinic. I wondered if this was a nervous laugh or if she truly just did not care….I just kept thinking about my fifteen-year-old daughter that I had to sign for to have her ears pierced. But here was a fifteen-year-old having such a horrific procedure for the third time that her parents didn’t even know about.

David Ferguson does 25 Year Study

Pro-life doctor Marissa Ogle, M.D wrote about an abortion study that pro-abortion people tried to repress,by Dr. David Ferguson:

“A reputable research scientist attempted to publish results of a well-designed study that concluded, to his surprise, that abortion has a negative impact on the psychological well-being of women. This study by Dr. David Ferguson, a New Zealand pro-choice researcher who was attempting to disprove abortion’s psychological effect on women, found that 42% of women who have had abortions had experienced major depression within the prior 4 years – almost double the rate of women who never became pregnant. The study also indicates that women who have had abortions are twice as likely to drink alcohol at dangerous levels and 3 times as likely to be addicted to illegal substances. The study also found that the risk of anxiety disorders was doubled.

Dr. Ferguson’s study was well-designed, spanning the course of 25 years… The study was undertaken with the position of validating the viewpoint that abortion did not increase mental health problems, but to confirm that these problems were preexisting. Much to the surprise of the researching team, the exact opposite was true. When Dr. Ferguson’s results were presented to New Zealand’s abortion supervisory committee, which ensures that abortions in the country are conducted in accordance with legal requirements, Dr. Ferguson was discouraged from publishing the results. Fortunately, despite his political beliefs, Dr. Ferguson felt that this would be “scientific irresponsibility.” Ferguson himself stated that he remains pro-choice and is not a religious person. The findings were surprising to him, however in his opinions were very robust. He went on to say that abortion is a traumatic event, involving loss and grief that may, in fact, predispose women to mental illness.

The doctor found:

“The fact is that abortions are the most common medical procedure that young women face – by the age of 25, one in 7 have had an abortion – and the research into the costs and benefits have been very weak. This is because the debate between the pro-life and the pro-choice has, in a sense, driven the science out. It verges on scandalous that a surgical procedure that is performed on over one in 10 women has been so poorly researched and evaluated, given the debates about the psychological consequences of abortion.”

Quote is from Ruth Hill “Abortion researcher confounded by study” The New Zealand Herald January 5, 2006

The pro-life author says:

Ferguson then went on to experience a great challenge in finding a journal that would publish the study, very unusual for a research team who typically has research published with the first attempt. A subsequent study by Ferguson reiterated his findings.”

A human being at an embryonic age and that human being at an adult age are naturally the same. The biological differences are due only to the differences in maturity.

Lawyers comment on Roe v Wade

Two lawyers comment on Roe v Wade, the decision which legalized abortion:

“The clerks in most chambers were surprised to see the Justices, particularly Blackmun, so openly brokering the [Roe V Wade] decision like a group of legislators. There was a certain reasonableness to the draft, some of them thought, but it derived more from medical and social policy than from constitutional law. There was something embarrassing and dishonest about this whole process. It left the Court claiming that the Constitution drew certain lines at trimesters and viability. The Court was going to make a medical policy and force it on the states. As a practical matter, it was not a bad solution. As a constitutional matter, it was absurd.”

Dangers of termination of pregnancy according to OB/GYNS

The following is from a paper by three British OB/GYN’s, which shares their views about the dangers of termination of pregnancy:

“If the termination of pregnancy were as safe as so many advocates of liberal abortion maintain, a patient suffering as a result of the operation could claim that professional negligence was responsible for her subsequent distress or disaster. Such claims would be grossly unfair. There would be great sympathy for a 16-year-old girl whose uterus was torn beyond repair; for the married woman with gut resection and peritonitis; for the mother in monthly distress following hysterotomy because of implantation endometritis in her abdominal wall, vagina or bladder; for the anxious infertile wife who knows the tubal damage now denies her the baby she desires is the delayed price she is paying for her teenage abortion. But the fact remains that none of these situations may be the result of negligence. They are complications which, though well-known to, and well documented by, those with wide experience of an operation which is neither simple nor safe, are seldom mentioned by those who claim that abortion is safe and merely an extension of contraceptive techniques.”

Quoted by Jeanne Head, RN in Alex Barno, M.D. Proposed Constitutional Amendments on Abortion “Hearings before the Subcommittee on Civil and Constitutional Rights of the Committee on the Judiciary, House of Representatives, 94th Congress” (Washington DC, US Government Printing Office, 1976) 934

These are only some of the dangers of termination of pregnancy.

Adverse events reporting is voluntary for pill

Marissa Ogle, M.D, wrote the following about the abortion pill, RU-486 and the adverse events connected to it:

“… There is a voluntary reporting of severe adverse events to the manufacturer. This leaves it up to the provider to decide which events are significant enough to report to the drug company, who in turn determines if it is reportable to the FDA.…

Considering the potential adverse events can be life-threatening or even fatal, the voluntary status of reporting is medically irresponsible. A 2006 analysis of adverse event reports (AER) released by the FDA described 5 deaths, 42 life-threatening hemorrhages, 46 serious or life-threatening infections and 17 undetected ectopic pregnancies… This same group of 607 cases required 513 surgical procedures for follow-up, 235 being emergent in nature with 93% of those performed to control hemorrhage. The AER’s discussed in this study relate to the use of mifepristone in otherwise healthy young women and document a significant risk of severe, life-threatening, or even lethal adverse effects.”
