Hyannis, MA (LifeNews.com) -- The abortion practitioner responsible for killing a young woman in a botched legal abortion has seen a state health board revoke his medical license. Laura Smith, a 22-year-old from Honduras, died in September after getting an abortion from Rapin Osathanondh at the Women Health Center abortion business.

Better to lose one woman during a botched abortion than to not allow millions to abort.

When conservatives stay home on general election day and allow Hillobama to become president, then abortionists who perform botched abortions will be given special dispensation from the white house.

Hey - he's not in jail, is he?

He lost his license to practice infanticide, like Teddy the K lost is license to be President.

It is actually so COMMON! Botched abortions. Parts of the baby left in the womb, infections, punctured wombs. The doctors who have to later work on these girls are lucky to save their lives, and the girls are lucky if they are not sterile now. It is a tragedy.

LifeSite is hopeless. Why are they relying on “Laura’s mother” as the sole cited source for their headline claim that this doctor’s medical license has been revoked? Medical license revocations are a matter of public record.

Of course the MSM would never say a word about that. Abortions are safer then pregnancy don’t cha know /sarc

Sad. Prayers to the poor girl’s family.

Its common because life is being violated.

It is like the candy chocolate scene in “I love Lucy” where one bad move wrecks the whole thing.

People are preventing a natural cycle and the human body is naturally reacting to the new change.
If you don’t want the baby give him/er up for adoption.
Abortions should only be allowed for rape victims or to save the mothers life(i.e car accident)
Crap happens
A baby isn’t a car you just simply throw out because it is “inconvenient.”

But - but - but...

Abortion supporters told us women that when abortion was legal it would be SAFE, and this kind of thing would never happen!

Surely they wouldn’t LIE to us!

Abortions put a huge strain on the body and there are psychological consequences as well.

"The abortion practitioner responsible for killing a young woman in a botched legal abortion..."

Wouldn't a "botched" abortion be one in which the child lived? This sounds like a wildly succesful abortion.

It looks like he inadvertantly aborted the wrong patient.
