On the one hand, a favorite argument for abortion goes something like this:
History shows that women have always tried to terminate unwanted pregnancies. When safe medical procedures are banned by law, they have resorted to dangerous–sometimes deadly–“back-alley” abortions.
(socialistworker.org/2005-2/562/562_06_Abortion.shtml)
And:
Those who push for more restrictions on abortion access – really, those who push for abortion to be made illegal – seem unwilling to acknowledge the disastrous alternatives.
…
Women would be left injured, ill, sterile, or dead.
Then on the other hand there’s the horrific news about the trial of abortionist Kermit Gosnell’s horrific murder of babies and mothers.
For those who can stomach it, you can read the 281 page Grand Jury report in PDF form HERE and it literally comes with this warning: “Warning: This Grand Jury Report is very explicit. Read at your own risk.” One thing is clear: Readers will notice that Kermit Gosnell’s abortion business is the epitome of the back alley styled dangerous abortionists that advocates of legalized abortion like to invoke to defend their position.
Pro-abortionists talk about how legalized abortion means safer abortion. Yet their response to regulations is not often favorable, since advocates commit the slippery slope fallacious argument that regulations would infringe on the rights to abortion when clinics are shut down for failing health and sanitary standards by officials. But is abortion to be allowed and legalized…at any cost? Would we legalized coat hanger back alley abortions? Should regulators do their job? And where’s the officials regulating Kermit Gosnell?
According to the Washington Post,
This nightmare facility had not been inspected in 17 years – other than by someone from the National Abortion Federation, whom he actually invited there. For whatever reason, Gosnell applied for NAF membership two days after the death of the 41-year-old Nepalese woman, Karnamaya Mongar. Even on a day when the place had been scrubbed and spiffed up for the visit, the NAF investigator found it disgusting and rejected Gosnell’s application for membership. But despite noting many outright illegalities, including a padlocked emergency exit in a part of the clinic where women were left alone overnight, the grand jury report notes that the NAF inspector did not report any of these violations to authorities.”
The irony of all of this is that in order to make sure women do not resort to dangerous “unsanitary,” back alley coat hanger style abortions, authorities and medical officials have to look the other way so as not to close down abortion clinics with the result that this unregulated medical environment foster the very thing the pro-abortionist say we need to prevent: dangerous unsanitary shady and murderous abortion centers.
History tells us that any time any industry or line of work that foster a culture of looking the other way, it only makes things worst: Crooked cops now become the gangsters, soldiers now become the terrorists and the abortionists becomes…well, still the abortionists. But now as one who operates in an unsanitary murderous house of horror.
Kermit Gosnell is the coat hanger argument against the rhetorics of current pro-abortion advocates, the abortion industry, their governmental regulators looking the other way, our Federal government and the nation as a whole.
I pray the Lord has mercy, for our nation as a whole to repent, turn to Jesus as Lord and Saviorf, and end this abortion holocaust.

Amen.
Indeed brother Justin!
Excellent article brother. This truth needs to be preached from the house tops.
Blessings.
And praying that many would repent!
I’ve been following the trial somewhat and also noticed that other abortion atrocities are also coming to light.
Yeah, there has been more of these recently coming to light. I suppose no sin can be hidden forever…
I wonder how long this case will drag on for.
The case is now in jury deliberation stage. I just prayed for the jury to do what is right.
I’m Thanking God for the exposure of this great evil. i pray many hearts will be aggressively pricked and turn back to God. Sin is ugly and brutal but so was the cross. No wonder many flee. i pray that by seeing our great depravity that we will recognize our great need and turn to Christ to save our sin sick souls. God have mercy on us in Jesus name.
Indeed Veda! I hope the Lord will use this for bringing sinners to Christ as people’s conscience get convicted of the sin of abortion and they see their need for a Savior in Christ Jesus.

Pro-abortionists are truly conflicted. You said it all when you wrote:
“Pro-abortionists talk about how legalized abortion means safer abortion. Yet their response to regulations is not often favorable, since advocates commit the slippery slope fallacious argument that regulations would infringe on the rights to abortion when clinics are shut down for failing health and sanitary standards by officials.”
Excellent article and I reblogged it today.
