"...will make it very, very difficult for any person with any political aspirations to defend against common-sense regulation of the abortion industry.
What Gosnell did, is probably just the tip of the iceberg. My guess is you could go into any abortion clinic and find in your face blatant violations of the law as well as health dept. violations.
Between, Lila Rose and several books I've read from people who left the abortion industry, you could pretty much bet I'm right on that. If you ever get a chance read the book Lime 5. Even the CDC covers up abortion related deaths of women.
Will not stand up in court, the grandfather clause, would say this is a taking, therefore illegal.

Excellent. If abortion can't be defeated outright by one way, it can be defeated roundabout by other ways. Many ways. And public sentiment is turning towards life.
It’s very clever, even brilliant.
How can anyone possibly object? They are boxed into a corner.
I hope so, but I distrust them.
Thanks. It’s a screenwriters effort, judging from the
OP.
“decipio” is first person singular. “nos” == “we” is
first person plural.
I don’t understand how tightening health and safety regulations could be construed as a taking. Please explain further.
You cannot set new standards for existing buildings. And yes it has already been to the supreme court.
Glad this happened in my beloved Commonwealth.
I think it’s constitutional. So long as the standards are not applied more harshly than they are to any other hospital, then the pro-aborts will have a hard time in court.
The nice part to savor here was the parliamentary ruse that got the bill through. Most good bills go to the VA Senate to die. This one managed to squeak through.
Under the legislation, any physician's office performing five or more first trimester abortions a month would be classified as a hospital, subject to special regulations established by the state Board of Health within the next 280 days.
The regulations will require abortion clinics to retrofit their operations. The retrofit could mean everything from widening hallways to additional employee training, according to the Associated Press. The Dispatch reports that most of the state's abortion clinics will be forced to close because of the "lengthy and costly certification process that most clinics could not afford."
Great idea!
I love that it was done within days of Dr. Bernard Nathanson’s passing .. maybe God’s way of letting us know Dr. Nathanson is still working for the pro-life movement. And I am so very proud of our Virginia legislature.
