Resignation of pro-life health official is just a start April 2, 2007 Jill Check out my latest at HuffPo. It’s about Eric Keroack and crisis pregnancy centers.
If I were to follow up with the suggestion I made here, I would probably go to “A Woman’s Concern.” But after reading your article, I’m not sure I want to expose myself to an unnecessary ultrasound at the hands of incompetents.
hard to find actual data, but … pregnancy and childbirth cause mental illness trauma after giving up a baby for adoption by comaprison, abortion is a cakewalk

Don’t be silly. You don’t go to a CPC, you go to an abortion clinic, pretend you want one, and then collect $500 for not having the abortion you didn’t want anyway. Hey, easy money, so long as you don’t get shot on your way in the door. Can I just say that, were I pregnant, I would luuurrrrrrve to go to a CPC and fuck with their heads? Maybe bring a tiny tape recorder or videocamera and get footage of them lying their asses off. You could always say ultrasound is against your religion or something. Pretend to be a pagan, and then they’ll buy it. Fundies rarely know anything about less common religious traditions, and they’ll just amp up the rhetoric because if you ain’t going to hell for supposedly wanting that abortion, you’ll sure go there for unacceptable religious beliefs. Okay, in all seriousness, congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Raincity girl, I do, in fact, own a small digital recorder. I’m seriously considering visiting A Woman’s Concern. I’m a little timid though, and have trouble with receptionists in general. Anyone wanna come with me?
I’m three time zones and a border crossing away from Massachusetts, but HELL YEAH! Seems like a plane ticket would be a worthier use of my renovation funds than fixing the damn floorboards. I’ll be there in spirit? Alas, much as I would love to, the floor really needs work. However, I’m sure there are Feministe readers in the northeastern US who’d have a similar reaction, and would be much better placed geographically to go undercover. I know there’s a regular commenter at Pandagon, Dr Kate, who’s in greater Boston (she may also be a regular commenter here, I just can’t remember off the top of my head), and I’m sure there are others as well. I hope that you’re able to attract some evil minions to assist in the wicked plot. I mean, DAMN, talk about efficient multi-tasking: here you are simultaneously repopulating the planet, building a red-diaper baby who’ll surely be indoctrinated from birth, AND fucking with the pond scum. Er, that should be ‘holding the pond scum accountable,’ I suppose, but ‘fucking with’ has such a bracing sound to it.
The greatest destroyer of peace is abortion because if a mother can kill her own child, what is left for me to kill you and you to kill me? There is nothing between. \Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat. Love begins by taking care of the closest ones – the ones at home. The greatest poverty is to kill your own child for convenience. Mother Teresa
Ree, the greatest destroyer of peace is being forced into pregnancy against my will. Having a child I don’t want to bear is mentally more tortuous to me than having an abortion. Sorry, never going to convince me it’s about the widdle baybees.
