This lengthy story about how urgently and fervently Planned Parenthood wants to be able to kill babies without any accountability or consequences is grotesque. At least there is one piece of morality in the piece.
Sen. Leah Vukmir, R-Brookfield, argues that informed consent is “pretty much standard operating procedure” for any medical procedure. While Vukmir, a registered nurse, was raised to oppose abortion, she says her health care background has played a large role in her approach to the issue. She recalls a moment in the 1980s, when a colleague expressed disbelief that Vukmir could be “a nurse and … pro-life.”
“It’s precisely because I’m a nurse that I’m pro-life,” she says. “This is what we do; we save lives. There never was a question for me whether or not I would support legislation to protect human life, because it’s professionally what I’ve always done.”
Headline: Inside Planned Parenthood: Doctors, patients struggle to navigate Wisconsin’s restrictive abortion laws. Sad. Reading the article, the bias is obvious. Near the end, there is mention of a bill to bar people from following, photographing or recording people going in an out of an abortion clinic.
I am pro-life and support informed consent but I also think harassing a woman during what I assume is most certainly a difficult time is just wrong.
Maybe Rep. Allen can add his well informed opinion to the discussion ?
