Why Polish women are travelling to Germany for abortions
The Local (Germany) ^ | 6 March 2017 | DPA/The Local

Poland only allows abortions in a limited set of scenarios. So for many women faced with unwanted pregnancies, Germany has become a safe solution.

The cell phone of doctor Janusz Rudzinski is almost constantly ringing.

The native Polish medic is head of the gynaecological branch of a hospital in Prenzlau within the scenic Uckermark region of Brandenburg. And many women from his native land seek him out when they decide to have an abortion.

“Every woman has the right to self-determination, and can decide for themselves about their bodies,” Rudzinski says.

“But in Poland they’re denied this.”

Poland has some of the strictest regulations on abortion in Europe: the procedure is only allowed in cases where the life of the fetus or mother is at risk, or in cases of rape or incest. The Polish government reports that the annual tally of abortions in the country is about 1,000.

A proposal to make the restrictions even greater - including by sending women and doctors to jail - was halted last year amid widespread protests.

Poland knows that birth control and abortions are leading to the suicide by attrition of Europe.

You can always count on Germans to be willing to kill Poles.

There is nothing new under the sun.

Germans killing Poles. They did a lot of that in earlier times.

At least in the 1939-1945 era, when Polish children were killed, the Polish next-of-kin were not accomplices.

Isn’t it grand how the Catholic Church has managed to normalize vice in its people. Destroying virtue in the masses is not only done by the State, it is also being done by the mainstream religions. Once promoting true Christian Ethics, they have now caved to normalize vice in the masses.

How evil is a culture that kills their own genetic offspring? At least Poland still has a remnant of true Christianity (virtue) in their “Justice” (virtue) System. The homosexualized Germany is a complete sodomite hellhole-— as much as it was during the Weimar Republic. Germany was the birthplace of the irrational evil modern movements of Marxism, Postmodernism (moral relativism) and “homosexuality/ pederasty” all to destroy Christian Ethics in the masses. They are succeeding.

This is how "rule of law" works in the USA these days as well:
While abortions may be performed legally in Germany, the procedure is actually technically defined as “illegal” under the criminal code, and the circumstances under which it can be performed are labelled as “exceptions”.

In my day, we called self-determination saving yourself for your husband. I know, I am so old-fashioned....

Ponce Pilates would be proud indeed... washing his hands off the “decision “ of women... abandoned by their boyfriend....

I suppose in 50% of cases such women specifically chose the abusive abandoning boyfriend for this very reason of acting innocent once forced to do away with the baby because of “economic circumstances”...

The incapacity of the Church to understand or research the language of the devil is indeed an absolute failure. The church is all empty suit, not capable of setting up a defense of Christ and His values to this day, still afraid of facing the accusers and Potius Plilates.

Why is it prosecutions do not see the irony of ignoring the woman’s testimony in favor of the boyfriend in domestic abuse but do not see the irony of a boyfriend or pimp abandoning a pregnant woman , urging her to kill her baby?
