California's brown signs bill permitting non-physician abortions [W:307]

Re: Liberals war on women takes big advance

Poor women are less capable of making a decision on abortion? That's what I got out of this article. Who is manipulating them? If anything, this increased competition will serve to protect these women more. Yeah people will benefit from liberalizing these laws, people always make money off of liberalizing laws. Look, if you are against abortion being made more available, because you see it as morally objectionable, I take no issue with that. I would generally disagree, but I see your point. This talk about "protecting women" on the other hand is ridiculous, unnecessary (yes abortions have risks attached to them, but so do all medical procedures), and very condescending. These "mental health issues" are also in the same vein. You don't think that the vast majority of women who obtain abortions don't think about the pain of what they're doing? Nobody wants to need an abortion. Everyone agrees that they suck, but these implications that women can't make this decision themselves really irks me.

the central question is over liberalization and if this represents such an instance. For example, I'm sure we agree that regulation shouldn't require a women to get counseling prior to an abortion with the intent of talking her out of the procedure. But I am sure we equally agree that surgical abortion clinics should be subject to stricter health standards than a nail salon, that inspections should occur and that violations should be rectified, and that reports of physician caused injuries and deaths should be investigated. Recently in PA the later three all contributed to the gosnell case, due to the misplaced idea that liberalization should be pursued at all cost, regardless of the effects it had on patient safety

Such liberalization is inexcusable, because it only hurts the patients, who are way to vulnerable to abuse in the patient/medical practitioner relationship
 
Re: Liberals war on women takes big advance

more access to healthcare to people who need it under the SAME medical regulations/rules/protocols that we have been using

good job cali thats always a bonus!

A part of the manipulation is that if you make it easier to get abortions, this will lead to more people not worrying about the risk and therefore, as you put it, more women allowing themselves in situations to get themselves in this situation that sucks, more often to have the need to want an abortion... or at least think that is what they want.

You have these situations, especially with younger women, as over half are from the ages of 15-24, women without much life experience yet, women who in many cases have been abandoned by the guys that got them pregnant, therefore probably thinking they are left alone to solve this mega problem... http://www.prochoice.org/about_abortion/facts/women_who.html


What is rarely brought up, but was tangentially in this article, is just what a money maker this is for abortion clinics. If you figure the average is about $500 per abortion and there were 1.2 + million abortions in 2008...that comes out to a six [6] with eleven [11] zeros behind it in dollars...that means its a $600 Billion a year, more than half a trillion dollars just in abortions, business...no wonder Planned Parenthood wants a shot at all those nice little honey pots...

So you wanna talk about irk, irks me that your side tries to pretend they are just helping these women out... they have a big, HUGE, financial stake in the whole deal. What is the Pro life stake? ONLY helping these ladies out and saving babies... add to that all the trash talking they have to endure from your side.

Give me a break.

no the real manipulation was it was harder to get than the FDA and other medical orgs required it and that is ending

they set the rules and other laws were put in place requiring more based on peoples feelings and opinions and not medical/science requirements

now people have greater access to something they should of had the whole time, that is helping in reality
 
Re: Liberals war on women takes big advance

Funny. It's you and the other murder supporters. Bad enough you want to kill off babies, now you don't much care what happens to the woman.

If it costs lives to figure out what a bad idea this is, it might not be all bad that it is women who are getting abortions. That sounds bad, but if they don't listen to morality maybe the threat of death will help.

Even if there is no God taking account and settling up at the end, that is just one bad, sad, set of morals...

And to think you are not encouraging more abortions [ with funding assured by government this is bound to be a growth industry even beyond the mega bucks already pouring in, even now sufficient to successfully lobby, perhaps actually purchase, influence ] sick...obscene when you factor in those cases like were allowed with Gosnell, or an industry wide atrocity along the lines of 20 Holocausts in any event...

Cannot decide if the problem is with hard hearts on the other side, a profound lack of intelligence... or is it just the $$???

D) All of the above?

8) All of the above?

1.) actually millions of people are driven by and feel obligated by their morals to have an abortion. Their opinion is no better or worse than yours

2.) nobody is "encouraging" more abortions. What you fail to understand is stuff like this is already going on else where because its regulate by the MEDICAL COMMUNITY, the laws that were in place in California made the restrictions tighter. In other places those laws dont exists.

so there is not going to be any significant growth abortions have been pretty stable (technically declining) for a while hitting thier peak in the 90s and staying about the same eventhoguh populationg is going up they are extremely rare percentage wise.

3.) gosnell was a criminal and went to jail like criminals do and rightfully so, this has nothgin to do with him just like Jeffery dahmer and Hitler have nothing to do with christianity, it would mentally retarded to make that connection and only dishonest people would

4.) wow, this is hilarious, see 3, good dishonest comparison thanks, now i get it

5.) i dont know some people simply dont care about legal and human rights so they want to banning abortion or make it totally unlimited

6.) this could be, there are a lot of people that thinkin abortion is only about ONE life, its about two and they are stupid enough to think banning it or making it totally unlimited has no effect on human rights.

7.) well we know its not that for abortion

8.) not possible

good move backing off your manipulation statement though since it was factually false

Their opinion is no better or worse than yours Ah, but you see, I am not killing anybody, not ending a life...or in your limited opinion, a potential life...so in comparison to those who would murder, or advocate murder, for sure their opinion is lesser than mine. Absolutely, of course.

3.) gosnell was a criminal and went to jail like criminals do and rightfully so, this has nothgin to do with him just like Jeffery dahmer and Hitler have nothing to do with christianity, it would mentally retarded to make that connection and only dishonest people would It would be mentally retarded not to make the connection...are you admitting that you didn't you make the connection?

Re: Liberals war on women takes big advance

A nurse practitioner is hardly a back alley denizen.
Considering that most 1st trimester "abortions" consists of a single intravenous injection and nothing more, the law makes a lot of sense.
You don't need a physician to give a vaccination either.
 
Re: Liberals war on women takes big advance

If the goal is to reduce the number of abortions, the best way to go about it is to make sure that women have access to, and knowledge of, effective birth control.

There is no way that abortion can ever be eliminated altogether, none.
 
Re: Liberals war on women takes big advance

California is now the fifth state to allow trained NMW and PAs to perform its trimester abortions.
The other states are Oregon, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Montanta.
 
Re: Liberals war on women takes big advance

Such liberalization is inexcusable, because it only hurts the patients, who are way to vulnerable to abuse in the patient/medical practitioner relationship

No one is talking about getting rid of all regulations on abortions, but there are restrictions that actually protect the patient and those that only seek to restrict abortions. The former, like ones that prevent a Gosnell-like horror-show are beneficial. Others such as requirements that abortion clinics hallways have certain dimensions, the proposed trans-vaginal ultrasound requirement, and Mississippi's requirement that abortion providers must have admitting privileges in a MS hospital do not protect women. If anything, they make women less safe, by restricting competition, which would make a provider think twice about cutting corners. The doctor restriction that was just repealed falls in the latter category of restrictions. Abortion providers would still face the same standards and guidelines that they do now. Women could still see doctors if they wanted to. Repealing this law does not expose women to more danger, but to more choice.
 
Re: Liberals war on women takes big advance

Just a couple of relevant portions from the LA Times article.
Gov. Jerry Brown signs bill to increase access to abortions - latimes.com

So basically it's not "back alley abortions" it's nurse practitioners...and studies have shown that abortions provided by them are just as safe as those practiced by physicians.

By the same token, it's just as safe for me to shoot you in the head with a handgun, as it is for me to cut your throat with a knife.
 
Re: Liberals war on women takes big advance

How is it a war on Women when all this does is give woman a safe and legal choice concering their body. If only every war was this bad.

Approximately half of the innocent victims of abortion are girls, who would become women if they were allowed to live. The “choice” which you defend is certainly not safe for them.
 
Re: Liberals war on women takes big advance

A part of the manipulation is that if you make it easier to get abortions, this will lead to more people not worrying about the risk and therefore, as you put it, more women allowing themselves in situations to get themselves in this situation that sucks, more often to have the need to want an abortion... or at least think that is what they want.

National Abortion Federation: Women Who Have Abortions



I'm not going to act like this is an easy decision, but I will tell you that onerous and anti-competitive regulations, condescension, and paternalism don't make this decision any easier. The fact that many of these people are young does not mean that they don't have the right to come to a decision on their own. If you want to frame your movement as protecting the rights of the unborn, that's completely reasonable, but you are not protecting women.

What is rarely brought up, but was tangentially in this article, is just what a money maker this is for abortion clinics. If you figure the average is about $500 per abortion and there were 1.2 + million abortions in 2008...that comes out to a six [6] with eleven [11] zeros behind it in dollars...that means its a $600 Billion a year, more than half a trillion dollars just in abortions, business...no wonder Planned Parenthood wants a shot at all those nice little honey pots...

Give me a break.

I'm making zero dollars off of this. I'm also a libertarian. I don't see how adding money to a situation automatically makes an organization nefarious. I never denied that people would make money off of this. You never explained why this is bad. You're a conservative, you do like capitalism and the profit motive, right?
