We cannot shut down abortion clinics. This will lead to unsafe abortions with the deaths of women.
The rules in place for the abortion clinics are ludicrious and were not recommended by the medical community. It is really outrageous that office colonoscopies, plastic surgery procedures, vasectomies and other operative produces using anesthesia, not to mention dental procedures, which have much higher complications rates than abortions, are not viewed as hospital procedures the way Virginia characterizes abortion. This is just all politcal. It has nothing to do with the safety of women.
