Feminist attorney Gloria Allred criticized Texas leaders Monday for including elective abortions in their restrictions on non-essential medical care during the coronavirus crisis.
Allred told Your Content News that the decision by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton is “reprehensible” because women may “need” abortions.
“It is reprehensible that the Governor and Attorney General of Texas have used the COVID-19 pandemic to attack some of the most vulnerable women in Texas who need access to a safe, legal and affordable abortion,” Allred said.
But abortions are not being singled out. Texas and a number of other states have limited many medical procedures to help prepare for the pandemic. Doctors and hospitals are concerned about a lack of supplies and equipment to treat people with the virus, and the governors’ temporary restrictions are one way to ensure that medical resources are being devoted to saving lives.
Abortions destroy unborn babies’ lives, and almost all are elective. Texas, Ohio and Louisiana leaders included elective abortions in their restriction orders, though Ohio abortion facilities are refusing to comply.
Ignoring the real reasons for the restrictions, Allred claimed politicians are just using the crisis to “win political points” with pro-life voters.
“It appears that these politicians are acting in an opportunistic manner in order to win political points with their anti-choice constituencies who believe in mandatory motherhood and restricting a women’s reproductive choices about her own body,” she argued.
Responding to her accusations, Paxton’s office told the news outlet: “No one is exempt from the governor’s executive order on medically unnecessary surgeries and procedures, including abortion providers. Those who violate the governor’s order will be met with the full force of the law.”
Allred encouraged someone to file a lawsuit challenging the order.
“Women who are young, poor, and live in rural areas, and women who may have already contracted COVID-19, may be in need of abortions,” she claimed.
But women do not need to abort their unborn babies. Abortions kill unborn babies’ lives and put mothers at risk, too. Common complications include infections, blood clots, hemorrhaging and an incomplete abortion. Abortion risks include future preterm births, breast cancer, suicide, anxiety/depression, and death. And it simply is not true that abortions are safer than childbirth. Mothers who cannot get abortions are not unhealthy as a result. They become mothers of newborn babies.
Texas, Ohio and Louisiana leaders are saving lives by putting a temporary halt to abortions. Their orders protect both the born and unborn by stopping abortion facilities from killing unborn babies and harming mothers in unnecessary procedures. In doing so, they also are conserving much-needed medical supplies for those who really need them.
You could make a creepy Twilight Zone episode where an abortion doctor dies and when he opens his eyes there is a crowd of very angry, scary looking babies leering at him.
Would be fitting if that is what actually happens.
Yep. The Lake of Fire will have a lot of deadwood stoking it.
What’s going to happen is the woman will become further along in her pregnancy and her abortion will take place in the second or third trimester.
Demon cats have really gone over the line
They are truly evil now !
they used to be evil , but now they’re really really really really evil
Or, maybe there will be Divine Intervention and those babies will be spared.
‘Won’t Gloria be surprised when,just after death,she discovers that there *is* a God and that there *is* a Hell.’
why then should we have to wait until she dies to get divine intervention...?
I love it!!
What’s reprehensible is abortionists continuing business as usual, epidemic or no epidemic.
Gloria Allred. Seems like I’ve been hearing that name all my life, and I’ve disagreed with her position on pretty much every issue.
Is she dead yet?
It is ESSENTIAL that those babies all be killed. It is REPREHENSIBLE that they might be forced to survive. Sound about right?
That would be the best outcome but the ghouls have normalized late term abortion as a woman’s “health care right.”
Attorney’s like her make Saul Goodman look like an ethicist.
A tooth abscess can be life threatening. People used to die from them, or more accurately from complications caused by them, in the olden days.
It’s an infection only a couple inches from your brain, and that can be a problem if left untreated. The lower jaw is less a problem than the upper jaw.
I’m not a dentist, but I once toughed my way through a vacation with an abscessed tooth, so I did some research. By the time I got home I could barely open my mouth and I looked like I had half a peach between my cheek and gum. When I finally got the tooth pulled the relief was immediate and I was so happy I almost cried.
No reason things like this should be happening in 21st-century America. Doesn’t seem like dentists spend a lot of time treating viral infections.
Nancy will update her version of the Bill to deal with the Corona Virus to include murdering all children under the age of two and refer to her Christian faith as her guide to doing so.
I call Gloria Allred... Ms AllBrainDead. What a disgusting human.
Another officer in Satan’s Army.
well he just is making them safe, legal and rare.
you know the libtards lying old slogan.
Her brain is dead...
Go back to chasing Roy Moore.
