Guam is now abortion-free as no doctor is willing to commit abortions
Live Action ^ | July 2nd 2018 | Cassy Fiano

The last abortionist on the island of Guam has retired, leaving the island completely abortion free. There had only been two abortionists committing abortions on the island for decades; in 2016, the first abortionist, Dr. Edmund Griley, retired. Dr. John Chiu took over the facility, the Guam Poly Clinic, but does not commit abortions. That left just one remaining abortionist: Dr. William Freeman.

Before retiring, Freeman committed abortions at the Women’s Clinic, and a doctor who worked under him, Dr. Jeffrey Gabel, has now taken over the facility. Unlike Freeman, Gabel refuses to commit abortions. The facility has also been renamed, and is now called “Dr. Gabel’s Clinic Obstetrics & Gynecology Para Famalao’an.” Gabel said that word got around quickly that Freeman had retired and Gabel had taken over, halting all abortions. “I’ve always been against it,” he said.

Abortion still remains legal in Guam, a United States territory. There are no restrictions at all for a woman to have an abortion if she is less than 13 weeks pregnant. But if the preborn baby has a birth defect or disability, or the pregnancy is the result of rape or incest, then it is legal to have an abortion up through 26 weeks — when the procedure is especially violent, and the baby is considered viable, or able to survive outside the womb:

"The most common abortion procedure during the second trimester is a dilation and evacuation, or D&E. The mother’s cervix will be dilated using laminaria, and then she will be sent home for 24 to 48 hours. When she returns to the abortion facility, the abortionist uses anesthesia, and dilates her cervix further using metal dilators and a speculum. He then uses a large suction catheter to empty the uterus of amniotic fluid, and then uses a sopher clamp to tear the preborn baby apart, limb by limb. The child is alive at the time of dismemberment unless a feticide is used beforehand (usually later than 18 weeks or so) to bring about a cardiac arrest in the preborn child. The abortionist finishes by scraping the uterus with a curette, to make sure nothing of the baby is left behind, and to remove the placenta."

Despite the legality of abortion on the island of Guam, there are evidently no doctors willing to continue to commit abortions there. This seems to be in line with what abortionists in the United States have reported; they have complained that they “get no respect,” especially from the medical community, who look down on them as the “lowest of the low.” Medical students are frequently choosing to deliberately avoid abortion training, and medical students who do opt to get training in how to commit abortions are reportedly shunned.

That is awesome.

Some abortion proponents have tried to make it mandatory to train all medical students to commit abortion. The abortion advocates’ premise seems to be that once they force students to commit murder, they will love it.

Perfect.

I have often thought that Guam might be a nice place to retire.

If only I could convince my wife.

The trouble is that most of the medical students can’t stand the smell of the black candles.

Global warming could never tip over Guam,

but God’s red-hot wrath against abortion certainly could.

I find it interesting and instructive that the more “primitive” the people, the more on-point they are about this type of thing.

WHO IS THE PRIMITIVE ONE, HMMMM...????

Something in us has DIED, and we need to bring it back.

Just the graphic description of the murder makes we want to throw up. And to think that women here call it a choice. Disgusting.

I hope God doesn’t punish us all for this.

With all of the non-aborted babies being born, Guam could capsize at any moment.

Once you kill your conscience, you are usually open to any kind of evil. It goes with the territory.

Mother Theresa , whose death was overshadowed by that of princess dianna, once said that Nuclear war will be the punishment for abortion, as I recall.

May God have mercy on us.

Probably a good idea, actually. Take matters firmly in hand and don’t be selfish. Man up and take your stuff with you.
