CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) -- The only abortion clinic in West Virginia is no longer performing abortions as of Friday.

Katie Quinonez, executive director of Women’s Health Center of West Virginia, said the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling issued Friday that allows states to ban abortion is making an immediate, hard-felt impact.

Thousands of miles to get an abortion? Nice try. As bad as California saying they are looking at an influx of a million abortions this year. More than in any year in American history.

These are Biden numbers. 700 million people died of Covid!

So the American taxpayer will no longer be subsidizing Planned Parenthood at an annual cost of over $500,000,000. There’s no way they can survive if they’re no longer providing abortion services in 26 states. I’ve been praying/hoping for this day for decades!

Let them relocate to Hell. NY isn’t Hell. Only certain parts of it are. And now the poor people stuck in Hell have concealed carry to see them through it.

And the FJB junta can suck it all up. Stolen elections have consequences of hahahaha losing bigly.

Yep. The solution is simple, don’t have unprotected sex. Can’t help yourself with sexual desires? Tough cookies.

Unless Deep State has lost control of the SCOTUS, this is a Pyrrhic victory.

I can’t believe the number of people here who think that the same SCOTUS that helped Deep State end our republic now gives a tinker’s dam about the unborn.

Either Deep State has lost control, which I doubt, or this is a feint.

It’s not that simple.
Abortions allow drug addicts and alcoholics to continue the habit without worrying about hurting the baby.
Abortions are all about being selfish.
Get ready for the birth defects.

Abortion also allows for incest to be covered up. It happened in West Virginia by this abortion clinic.

HUNTINGTON, West Virginia July 18, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) – A West Virginia man convicted of raping his own 11-year-old daughter will finally see time in prison, with a judge revoking his probation due to a subsequent offense.

Michael Joe Adkins impregnated his daughter in November 2010 and took her for an abortion in March 2011, as LifeSiteNews reported in 2014. He claimed the girl had miscarried and simply needed any fetal remains removed. He was charged with incest and, along with his then-wife Amanda (the girl’s stepmother), child neglect for “put[ting] her in extreme danger by letting her go through an unnecessary procedure,” West Virginia State Police Cpl. Marlene Moore said at the time.

As part of a plea agreement, Adkins avoided jail time and was instead sentenced to five years’ probation and 50 years’ supervision, as well as mandatory therapy and registration as a sex offender. His now-estranged wife was sentenced to 18 months’ probation and 10 years’ supervised release.

This past Monday, The Herald-Dispatch reports, Cabell Circuit Judge Paul T. Farrell revoked Adkins’ probation and restored the original five to 15-year prison sentence that had been suspended by the plea deal.

Farrell made the decision after a string of offenses, including Adkins getting kicked out of his sex offender counseling program, multiple instances of driving without a license, failure to pay court fees, and allegations that he struck his girlfriend at least once. Probation officer Chris May confronted him about the assault claim in April and jailed him for five days.

West Virginia currently bans abortion after the 20th week of pregnancy unless a patient’s life is in danger, or they face “substantial and irreversible physical impairment of a major bodily function.”

Most EU countries are 12 weeks

How does that explain the headline?
England only allows abortion up to 15 wks

Roe v Wade was almost singlehandedly responsible for the explosion of the sexual revolution. Over time, women may be more cautious about jumping into bed on the first date. Young girls will turn to agencies like Catholic or Lutheran homes for unwed mothers, and adopting out their babies. (Although, the government is more than willing to pay for “fatherless” children, the 2nd factor that helped fuel the sexual revolution).

Maryland and Pennsylvania are thousands of miles from West Virginia. Who knew? Wonder what’s in between ... “there be dragons”??

Was unaware of WV’s abortion laws and I’m only 30 mins away.
Another reason to think about moving there.

Winning.

But there’s a lot of work to do.
