Louisiana’s intersection increasingly at the cutting edge of policy-making refreshingly continues with its pursuit of a suit designed to show deliberately designed unfettered access to chemical abortions can be dangerous to more than just the unborn and to reinstate rules to prevent that outcome.
The use of mifepristone as the second agent to kill in the womb (following misoprostol) the state has led the way in trying to have through the courts reimposed a Food and Drug Administration ban against doling out the drugs except during a doctor’s office visit. The Democrat Pres. Joe Biden Administration embraced the dictates of leftist abortion-on-demand advocates to remove that requirement in the wake of the Supreme Court decision that ruled unconstitutional federal government attempts to regulate abortion.
That move became a key element in the left’s strategy to prevent individual tighter state regulation from reducing abortion. The left celebrates the practice not only because of its assertive ideological-confirming performance that also counts coup over conservatives who largely favor pro-life restrictions, but also because of its background unspoken eugenics-based racism that doesn’t mind in a country that even as whites comprise almost 70 percent of the population that almost 70 percent of abortions are achieved by non-whites.
The campaign to dilute the ability of states to limit severely abortion availability within their borders has succeeded to the point that the number of abortions nationwide actually has increased since that 2022 decision despite many states imposed greater restrictions shortly thereafter. Remote prescribing largely is blame with a sharp increase in that, now making the deadly pills easily obtainable through the mail in almost an over-the-counter fashion with no guarantee that the requestor is the receiver of these, or even is legitimately asking.
Precisely as intended. The system was concocted specifically to thwart state bans and making the dispensing as easy as buying candy. And why, if the Republican Pres. Donald Trump Administration as it may do soon doesn’t return to rule to its previous form, the courts should because mifepristone, as Louisiana argues, reveals itself as an inherently dangerous drug.
Leftist media always evade the growing evidence of this, where women are being tricked, if not coerced through the use of violence, into swallowing the dangerous substance that often causes them health complications and usually killing the unborn they harbor. Almost always it’s the sperm donor who perpetrates these crimes, and frequently they obtain the pills through exploiting the now hardly-regulated system set up to fail.
A reality against which pro-abortion views have no defense. After all, pro-abortionists admit humanity to an organism genetically human only when it’s “wanted,” making the validity of human life and the individual involved contingent on somebody else’s emotions. Yet in these abuse cases the women involved look forward to giving birth but pro-abortion attitudes by permitting lack of restrictions in essence put these females in positions where they have no choice, which ironically the pro-abortion crowd alleges, to shield themselves from the moral implications of what they advocate, that “choice” lies behind their advocacy.
Simply, by nature the drug is dangerous, but pro-abortionists redefine that away when it’s used willingly to kill the unborn. But in the current regulatory regime where anything goes, those who don’t want to kill the young humans they carry cannot be protected adequately from others who wish their unborn charges dead. Only by restoring the regime to its previous state can that risk be minimized adequately.
That’s why it’s important that Louisiana continue its legal quest to have restored, one way or the other, the old rules. Lives and women’s desires depend upon that.
