They’re not suing because the baby died, but because the woman claimed that she would have had less pain if they had offered her an abortion.

No thank you. That would be just what they’d love to provoke, so Catholics can be labeled as a terror group.

Whose side are you on?

First do no harm. This oath alone should preclude 99% of abortions.

"...so the ACLU is arguing that the 1st Amendment is unConstitutional?"

Actually, the Obama regime is arguing that the First Amendment is UnConstitutional and the ACLU is trying to argue the point from an angle that puts the fascist view in the news before the case is argued before the USSC on grounds the fascists know is far less likely to go their way.

It's a prelude to arguing regulatory rights for the sake of uniform treatment availability supersede individual rights should King Barry lose by arguing that BarryCare doesn't violate the First Amendment. I was expecting the ACLU to file a suit against a physician or group of physicians for not prescribing contraceptives or some kinds of contraceptives first but apparently the Barry crowd is more worried than I thought they were about how they'll fare in the USSC meaning they're actually worried industrial scale infanticide might be interrupted or greatly reduced.

I should have known that just like the Third Reich keeping the trains to the camps running while hard pressed combat troops were rationing artillery rounds due to a lack of rail transport, our own democrat fascists would put the highest priority on keeping the ghoulish abortuaries running even if that leads to rationing contraceptives available to hard pressed tramps.

JMHO

Who pays the ACLU to do this? I can’t believe they do it for nothing!

What gives with the ACLU? Catholic hate, is that it?

Expecting a Catholic hospital to perform abortions is like expecting a Cadilac dealer to have new Fords on the floor.

Why didn’t she go to one of the Muslim, heathen or Quickie Lube (CA only) hospitals.

No ... just for Catholic doctrines.

One of my neighbors is a female Presbyterian minister. When her daughter graduated from Berkley last year, she helped her obtain a volunteer internship with the ACLU! My jaw dropped .. I was totally dumbfounded.

IIRC...YOU DO....there is a provision in Federal Law that allows them to be paid by Taxpayers when they win a case.

The Hyprocritical Oath (Oath of Hipprocrates) ALREADY prohibits abortions, and has, for more than 2,000 years!

She wanted an abortion at Mercy Health? I want a bacon cheeseburger from the Cedars-Sinai cafeteria. Good luck with that.
