Uh..the poor are the ones getting most of the abortions. Over 80% of all Planned Parenthood clinics are within walking distance of minority neighborhoods.

You make no sense. How will they die? By having the babies instead of killing them?

Then stop having them

abortions will continue whether theyre illegal or not. so if you ban them, this will be the outcome.

got hired by another govt healthcare provider today or rather it was my first day of work. our lpn teacher said the govt is in the process of nationalizing all the privately run long term care facilities. i asked why. he said they only care about cutting costs and the quality wasnt that good. so now we will make $23 or so an hour plus pension plus more unpaid time off than we can afford im assuming OR benefits.
