The North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services announced Wednesday that it has suspended the license of Femcare, an abortion clinic in Asheville, for two dozen serious health and safety violations discovered during a routine inspection on July 18 and 19th.
This action comes just two days after Gov. Pat McCrory signed a law that will require abortion clinics to meet the standards of an outpatient surgery center. Ironically, it was thought that Femcare would be the only North Carolina abortion clinic to meet safety standards under the new law, but it seems it that thinking was grossly in error. Femcare was last inspected 6½ years ago. The closure is not directly related to the new law.
This is the 42nd abortion clinic to close nationally in 2013. Clinic safety regulations have contributed to many of the closings. This number far eclipses the 24 abortion clinics that closed in 2012. Since 1991, over 70% of all abortion clinics in the U.S. have closed.
“This is a wake-up call for abortion supporters. What they thought was a clinic that could meet high standards ended up being one with practices so shoddy and conditions so dangerous that it is not fit to operate. Many abortion supporters fought to oppose the new law. In reality, they were fighting to keep abortion clinics dangerous,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. “This is the reality of abortion clinics today. We have yet to find one that complies with all laws and safety codes. The public health would be best served if they were all closed.”
I ended it there
I'm incapable of joining two or more thought processes into one reply
YOUR reply could'a shold'a been, "Yeah, yer right, but consider this ; ..... "
imo
I do not want to continue arguing about your offensive remarks, which were wisely deleted.
I think the next step should be to limit abortions to those who are registered Democrats.
Registered Republicans should be prohibited from any abortions.
The the Leftists deal with that.
I think abortions should be limited to postnatal application against aggressive, homicidal post-fetuses.
Ah, I agree, Liberals.
Are you a Christian? This has everything to do with killing humans!
It has everything to do with God, for God is pro-life.
the leftists are the ones getting abortions. The ones on the right are having babies.
They don’t know they are voting themselves out of government in the future, do they?
The children they rear are less than desireable for a thriving and religious society.

THOSE children will NOT be nurtured because they were not wanted.
I know some pretty amazing people who were “unwanted” by their mothers (including a Squadron Commander). It’s a good thing that someone like you didn’t happen by to puncture their skulls and suck out their brains.

I know no people that were unwanted and survived an abortion, but I know people that are and have been treated as throw-away children
Gotcha.
Not sure what you mean by that. The termination of aggressive and homicidal post-fetuses is already provided for in states where first degree murder is a capital crime. Trayvon has nothing to do with it, as I think you’ll agree.
I might be mistaken but he seems to be implying that Zimmerman was the aggressive and homicidal post-fetus.
The complete quote is (as you know);
"I know no people that were unwanted and survived an abortion, but I know people that are and have been treated as throw-away children... " and, yes they need love, but there are some building blocks missing in their make-up. We bring them to church and give them an hour or so. You can't save people that are not lost
You’re not mistaken.
So it seems. I still don’t quite get the point, but I don’t intend to pursue it.
