“Doctors for Choice” Event is an Oxymoron – Students for Life of America Protests Chicago Doctors Who Betrayed Their Oath
Students For Life ^ | May 13, 2024 | Jordan Estabrook

Abortion supporters nationwide make contradictory statements daily. Usually, it sounds something like this:

Life is valuable – except in the womb.

It’s ok to kill a preborn child up until nine months, but when it’s born, then it can’t be killed.

It’s a baby when they want it to be – otherwise, it’s a “fetus.”

It’s more startling and concerning when trained medical professionals not only accept contradictory statements such as these but go directly against the oaths they vowed to take. The heart of the Hippocratic Oath is to “abstain from all intentional wrong-doing and harm.”

Or, a similar phrase stated by Thomas Inman, says more descriptively, “Practice two things in your dealings with disease: either help or do not harm the patient.”

Some medical personnel threw away their morals, along with dignity for all patients – born and preborn. Illinois’ biggest pro-abortion lobbying group, “Personal PAC,” held a fundraiser in downtown Chicago in Dearborn for “Doctors for Choice.” Students for Life of America (SFLA) mobilized alongside the Pro-Life Action League of Illinois to protest the event and showcase to the community the horror of abortion.

With Illinois being one of the most pro-abortion states in the nation, this pro-abortion PAC needs public disapproval, not more funding. They have already wreaked havoc on life, having funded the Reproductive Health Act, which made abortion legal through nine months, and helped repeal the Parental Notification Act, which allows abortionists to perform abortions on minors without parental consent or notice. Not to mention, women from neighboring states travel through Illinois borders to obtain an abortion. With more funding, this PAC could do even more damage in Illinois.

“Chicagoans deserve to know what is happening in their city and how lives are legally being ended through abortion in their city and state,” stated Shawna Weber, SFLA’s upper Midwest regional coordinator. “Continued funding for abortions in this state is devastating news for everyone. When the abortionists get more money, they use it to end more lives and wreak more havoc on the pro-life movement in the state.”

“As a young pro-life activist, it is essential that we disrupt the corrupt abortion industry that does not care about women but wants to kill children,” says Sarah Carter, a recent graduate and an SFLA alumni at Wheaton College. “Healthcare is supposed to heal, not kill.”

We exposed Chicagoans to the messaging about what was happening inside Dearborn – death and destruction from doctors who are supposed to protect. While we received both positive and negative feedback, overall, we were able to mobilize with other pro-lifers on such a crucial issue for the state.

“Doctors for Choice” is an oxymoron. Women in Chicago, neighboring states, and nationwide deserve doctors who inform and take their oath to protect life seriously.

The murder of 60 million babies obviously meant FICA tax payments got greatly reduced, which has greatly harmed the financing of Social Security.

Combined oral contraceptives—Also called “the pill,” combined oral contraceptives contain the hormones estrogen and progestin. It is prescribed by a doctor. A pill is taken at the same time each day. If you are older than 35 years and smoke, have a history of blood clots or breast cancer, your doctor may advise you not to take the pill. Typical use failure rate: 7%.

Progestin only pill—Unlike the combined pill, the progestin-only pill (sometimes called the mini-pill) only has one hormone, progestin, instead of both estrogen and progestin. It is prescribed by a doctor. It is taken at the same time each day. It may be a good option for women who can’t take estrogen. Typical use failure rate: 7%.

Implant—The implant is a single, thin rod that is inserted under the skin of a women’s upper arm. The rod contains a progestin that is released into the body over 3 years. Typical use failure rate: 0.1%.

Levonorgestrel intrauterine system (LNG IUD)—The LNG IUD is a small T-shaped device like the Copper T IUD. It is placed inside the uterus by a doctor. It releases a small amount of progestin each day to keep you from getting pregnant. The LNG IUD stays in your uterus for up to 3 to 8 years, depending on the device. Typical use failure rate: 0.1-0.4%.

Also let’s not forget one of the primary goals of PlannedParenthood is to murder the babies of the inferior races. That is why black families are pushed towards abortion as much as possible — this is what PP was designed to do. This is why the DNC ensures that funding for PP is never threatened.
