Not too long ago a young lady came in to our pregnancy center in Queens and quickly opened up to me about a number of things in her past.
She was mostly interested in the free pregnancy test - which turned out to be negative - but as we began talking she revealed that she had committed two abortions in the past and they have caused her a great amount of pain and agony that continue to this day.
One in particular was fairly late term - she was about 20 weeks pregnant. She walked into the Planned Parenthood on Bleecker St. and they began to start the procedure. The woman takes a pill first in order to dilate her cervix in these later-term procedures. However, this pregnant woman then decided after taking this pill that she actually wants to keep the baby.
The Planned Parenthood personnel informed her - falsely - that it was too late and she had to undergo the abortion at this time.
At a time when EMC is being accused of lying to women with Bill 371-A, here is a clear case of a lie that led to the demise of a tiny, innocent baby and the emotional distress of a young woman.
In order for a woman to have an abortion she has to be deceived on some level. It is always a lie that an abortion is the best thing to do and so we should expect that those who perpetuate such a lie on a general level will also lie on a more personal level. The Prince of Lies has found so many ways to trick women into abortions - but rarely is the lie as obvious as in this case.
