In New York City, there are a number of abortion clinics competing to catch the eyes of abortion minded women. One of these clinics is Early Options. Their tagline reads “Early Abortion & Miscarriage: a Revolutionary Medical Practice.”
When a woman goes to a clinic to end her pregnancy and kill her unborn baby, it’s not really called a “miscarriage,” but since the word “abortion” still carries stigma, redefining the word “miscarriage” for their patients is apparently something this abortion clinic is happy to do.
This clinic has apparently pioneered an abortion method called the “SofTouch.” According to the site:
SofTouch® is the safest, most noninvasive method. The doctor simply inserts a soft flexible tube through the natural opening of your cervix, and applies gentle pressure. This quietly “releases” your late period and induces a miscarriage. Because it is a natural release there is immediate recovery and you can rest assured that when you are ready, you can become pregnant again.
The clinic’s website does not say what is actually providing this “gentle pressure.” Perhaps it is a hand-held pump syringe. Either way, they are advertising these abortions as “natural” and “gentle.” But are they really natural and gentle to the baby?
The clinic instructs prospective patients to:
Let go of your worries, and let us care for you. You will leave feeling supported and confident that you can get pregnant when the time is right.
They say:
We have spent over 15 years developing our approach to patient care. It is transformative to be in an environment that is welcoming, respectful, and non-judgmental. You will not feel like you are in a traditional “clinic” but in a truly therapeutic and warm doctor’s office. A companion is welcome to be by your side.
On another page Early Options describes an abortion at seven weeks. They’ve even included a nice little picture for us:
The text next to the picture says:
Ending early pregnancy doesn’t need to be any more complicated than getting your yearly pap test.
You have an early pregnancy if you have only missed one or two periods. At this stage, it’s more like having a miscarriage. It’s comforting to know that you’re ending the pregnancy before you would even know if it may be viable. An early pregnancy consists of tissue similar to your menstrual tissue and a “bubble” of fluid, called the gestational sac. The pregnancy itself is invisible.
Seven weeks. An empty sac. A pregnancy that is “tissue similar to menstrual tissue.” Nice and easy. Right?
Unfortunately, this is not the reality.
The Endowment for Human Development, a site not affiliated with the pro-life movement or any religious group, has photographs of unborn babies at different stages of development. It also has fetal development facts and information.
Here are some of the things that an unborn baby has at seven weeks:
Here you can see the beating heart of a seven-week-old child.

The clinic workers and abortionists at Early Options know what these babies look like. They know that these children are not “tissue” or “a late period” or “fluid” or “an empty sac.”
The language they use is meant to be misleading. Women are not supposed to know what is inside them – they are not supposed to know the reality of what their baby looks like or what he or she can do, they are not supposed to know the truth about what the abortion will do to their child. (Warning; graphic images). The picture on the website can’t be seen as anything other than a blatant lie. The empty sac that it shows is not a seven-week-old baby or even a four or five-week-old baby.
This is the information that’s out there aimed at abortion minded women. This is what the clinics are telling them. We need to tell them the truth.
These ghouls would have happily greeted the arriving trains at Auschwitz and told the Jews that they were just being given a "shower" after their long journey.

So, semantics and the obfuscating feelings of ‘language’ have taken the place for what it really is - a slow-motion explosion that forcefully dislodges a human embryo from its attachment. Nice going - did a bunch of women dream up this language?
The prisons sometimes gently terminate inmates also.
Technically, the word “abortion” covers both natural abortions (miscarriages) and induced abortions.
The term is still widely used that way in veterinary medicine.
“Gently removing tissue” to describe abortion is like saying “giving a sleeping pill” to describe shooting someone in the head.
Killing softly is still killing.
They left out the little detail of the BABY growing inside that gestational sac. Abortionists following their father the Devil, who was a murderer from the beginning, a liar and the father of lies.
I heard the Charmin company provided the actor who played Mr Whipple with a lifetime supply of TP.
And if the gentle approach doesn’t work, we have the backup giant shears.
OK , this is in NY so nothing will happen ... but when do we start suing over incomplete and intentionally misleading information like this, surely we can find a litigant to back ...
Informed consent needs to start with informing the potential customer/patient that they are speaking with a salesperson on their initial call ... and the pre-op must include mental health , real fetal development , infertility and cancer information.
Meanwhile NYC is attempting to shut down crisis pregnancy centers with the cities own false claims.
