The only surprise in the new abortion debate and rules [View all]

Is how quickly the men have gotten on board. Pharmacist not giving medication to girls of childbearing age. Doctors, health and wellness people, Teachers policeman and others couldn’t wait to impose the new rules on women.
I am 72 when I was 26 years old I had a safe, legal, and uncomplicated abortion. The details are unimportant. But today I would not be able to do that if I were pregnant and didn’t want to be. I thought after the handmaid’s tale, and all of that other that people were awake to what could happen to women. But apparently unless you’re a woman there’s not anybody that’s gonna take up for you.
I’m afraid of what is coming if we don’t get a stop on this now.
