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

Posted on 07/05/2018 6:36:00 PM PDT by Ennis85

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.

There are many movements to force medical students to do abortions.

Some wealthy Guamanian will recruit some clip-haired dyke nurse practitioner from New York to provide this these “health care” murders.

If we can get that wonderful Judge Barrett on the Supreme Court you will see Doctors not risking freedom to kill babies.

Shared this article with my middle school daughter and the discussion led to that video.

She was incredulous over his stupidity.

From a spermjacking / cild support view, yours is an excellent idea.

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

I recall reading an account of one medical student who had signed up for a rotation with an abortionist. As part of the rotation, he was supposed to commit abortions. He described the experience as feeling an electric shock over his whole body when he killed his first baby. He quit that rotation and never killed another baby.

He no doubt was being caressed by a demon.

I can only imagine that an abortorium would be packed full of demons every day and that an abortionist would be packed full of demons as well.

Have you ever listened to the sound of a suction aspirator?

It is a sound straight from the depths of hell.

Sounds – Noises that resemble those overheard during the abortion time frame can trigger Abortion PTSD pain. Music that she enjoyed during that period in her life can remind her of this choice. Vacuum cleaners and dentist’s drilling noises can leave post-abortive women in deep anxiety. For those who endured medication abortion, the swish of a toilet flushing can produce pain and trauma, particularly if they flushed their aborted children after they passed from their bodies. - ramahsvoice.com

I do not understand doctors who do this for a living.

What you have there is the suffering of the mother.

The abortionist does not experience any of that.

He collects his fee, gets in his BMW and goes to the corner bar and drinks his fill.

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...????

Where's the FR "all cultures are equal" crowd?

And to think that women here call it a choice. Disgusting.

Notice that it's called a "choice," without describing what it is that people are "choosing."

Well that makes sense to me. Isn't the whole point of health care supposed to be to heal? A whole little poem/oath about doing no harm? An abortionist is the complete opposite of all that.
