A thirty state ban would only help the Greyhound Bus Company.

If this were to happen the "buffer zones" for abortion mill entrances in my state would increase to about a mile and a half.

Not if states that ban abortions forbid out-of-staters from coming there.

"A thirty state ban would only help the Greyhound Bus Company."

I understand your point, but it's just not so. People who have been doing sidewalk-counseling for years say that the word most accurately describing most abortion-bound women is not "determination," but "ambivalence." In fact, ambivalence is so common in newly-pregnant women that it's practically a symptom of pregnancy.

This being the case, any delay, even of a day, will turn a lot of women around (which is why abortion lobbyists fight like hell against a legislated one-day waiting period).

Women who can't take off "on the Greyhound" because of family, school, or work responsibilities, will often find, once the initial inner turmoil of pregnancy has settled down, that they can actually accept the baby and plan for childbirth accordingly. If there's a prolife pregnancy center on this side of the State Line and an abortion clinic on the other, they'll often end up at the prolife center.

Every restriction on abortion saves lives. This is a truth learned by long experience.

NO, I don’t think it would. It might be a great start that could pick up steam over a period of years as the CCW has done.
