Missouri could soon become the first American state without a legal abortion facility

IN 2009 George Tiller, an American doctor and abortion provider, was shot and killed while attending church in Wichita, Kansas. The gunman, an activist with a history of mental illness, testified that he had to kill Dr Tiller or else “babies were going to die”. Today the battle over abortion in America is fought less with guns and explosives than with laws hammered out in the country’s statehouses. This year Alabama, Ohio and Georgia passed laws to restrict access to abortions.

It would be a momentous decision. If the St. Louis clinic shuts down, Missouri would become the only state in the country without a legal abortion-providing facility for the first time since the Supreme Court legalised the procedure in 1973. Even if the clinic is allowed to continue providing abortions, it will face a slew of new restrictions. These include a ban on abortions after the eighth week of a pregnancy—an unusually early date.

This sounds like good news to me. The unborn is a human organism which is what a human being is by definition. All human beings deserve protection and they definitely don’t deserve to die because they are unwanted by the parents.

Stop acting like women are stupid .that having a baby is horrible and they lose some kind of rights if they don’t murder their own children.

Hey hey GOP

They know what causes pregnancy, you know that, right? Look and address the root cause, fellas.

Women in the state will still get abortions. Those with money will go elsewhere and get excellent care. Those without money will find someone to do it, and many of those will be harmed or die. The state is not stopping abortion.

Founders spelled Misery wrong.

Women's rights trampled again.

Have any of you ever considered the irony associated with the anti-abortionists and the high probability of the fetuses, that they 'save', growing up and, one day, becoming members of the opposition party?

Here we go... Next it’s going to be you need permission from your husband to get birth control. Welcome to Gilead

You spelled license incorrectly.
