Read your history book. The answer is simple: the ban is enforced against providers, just like it always was up until the 1970's (a little earlier in a couple states). The business about women being prosecuted is a strawman.

This is true, although it ultimately needs to be changed as well. We don't allow people to hire hitmen to murder their children and then only punish the hitmen. That would be outrageous.

But I do agree, Rootys ship is sunk. Not a moment too soon, either.

I hear what you're saying and used to hold that view. But the women in most cases are pawns. The Sarah Weddingtons and Kate Michelmans of the world represent only a very small fraction of angry, shrill, gung-ho pro-abortion women. Most women who choose abortion do so sadly and reluctantly, because it's the "hip" thing to do (i.e. everyone is doing it), because of peer pressure, etc. Most women, I think would rather be accepted with their full womanhood, which includes motherhood.

No, let's attack the malignant cells in the tumor, not the healthy tissue. Let's go after those who seek to profit from the misfortune of others.
