Why Handing Out Abortion Pills On California State Campuses Is A Horrific Idea
The Federalist ^ | APRIL 2, 2019 | Bernadette Tasy

Posted on 08/11/2019 5:55:05 PM PDT by Morgana

I recently addressed a California state assembly committee to talk about Senate Bill 24, one of many abortion experiments legislators are considering in my home state. It would mandate that all California public universities distribute RU-486 abortion pills in their student health centers.

These pills cause abortions for women who are up to 10 weeks pregnant, well after which the baby has developed a heartbeat. Tensions were high as my colleague and I began our very short allowance of two minutes each to explain our opposition. Given the risks to my peers and fellow Californians, I had to try.

Providing abortion on school campuses is already a ridiculous concept, but the bill, which is expected to go before the full California Assembly by summer’s end, contains numerous flaws. My testimony consisted of three main points.

First, the bill author, state Sen. Connie Leyva, continuously argues that the bill is about “access” to abortion and that public university campuses are not in close proximity to abortion pill providers. Most campuses, however, are within just a few miles of these facilities. The bill places the mandate on all 34 campuses, costing millions of dollars for a completely unnecessary program.

Second, although the bill is supposed to save students money for car service transportation to off-campus abortion appointments, the public university systems have stated repeatedly that they will need to raise mandatory student fees to fund this on-campus program. And in California, Medi-Cal patients receive free transportation services to these appointments.

"When a pro-life legislator questioned how the universities are expected to handle the biomedical waste that would be left in campus bathrooms and sewage system after the abortions, the author and her expert witness struggled to respond, ultimately pushing aside the question."

I was in a college dorm, several of them. I remember going in the bath room and hearing girls in the stalls praying to the porcelain god for hours upon end. The stench, the mess, the time as it took for all of it to come up. Then the girls had to sit in the shower and get vomit of them and their hair.

So lucky back then there was no abortion drugs can only imagine going into the bath room and seeing that! It was bad enough hearing a girl moaning from too much drinking but the screams from a miscarriage? The blood everywhere? Yes this is a very bad idea.

Also never mentioned is the extra legal liabilities the schools will take on when things don’t go exactly right with the pills. I’m sure local lawyers are looking forward to big paydays from that.

Words cannot express how sick this is.

ALL they think about is the many ways the life can be snuffed out of a child, no matter how grotesque. It is vile and evil, no question about it.

This is so disgusting, handing out murder pills so cavalierly to random people on campus who want to absolve themselves from the responsibility of unprotected sex, at the expense of a small human being. And of course, what of the medical complications to some of the women taking these pills? Who will be responsible for attending to them or paying off the parents should the mother-to-be have a fatal complication from taking the pills? Dumb idea, entirely par for the course for California.

It is heartless. Why should an innocent pre-born child be done away with because of the politics of the mother?

Yeah. I know it’s heartless. I have to fight the hardening of the heart. Sometimes you get so frustrated at the insanity of the times.

“Hey baby. Don’t make me use a condom. If anything goes wrong you can always take the pill. “

In all truth a 10 week fetus is very small, less than an inch and a half long. Women flush bigger miscarried babies than that sometimes, not knowing what else to do.

Unless a woman hemorrhages, the bathroom and is a non-issue.

Exactly.

If the little whores want to whore around, fine. Sterilize them afterward and tell them: “you want to whore around fine; you’ve just been sterilized so you can whore around all you want.”

Of course the law would immunize them from any lawsuits relating to complications.
