New York Fails to Inspect Abortion Clinics for Over a Decade

[Clementine]

This is your government in action. Abortions clinics have often been found to have low standards. The left would like non-physicians performing abortions. They don't even like to bother them with inspections. Even though many other medical clinics don't do surgical procedures, they are held to a higher standard. Abortion is surgery. It needs to be done in a sanitary place where standards are just as high as other medical facilities. Of course, the left doesn't see it that way and they are more concerned that women get abortions, regardless of how safe the clinic is. As with any surgery, things can go wrong. When they do, a doctor needs to be there and a hospital should be a fairly short ambulance ride away. The left is fighting against abortion clinics being 30 minutes away from a hospital where the abortion doctor has admitting rights. The left also fights against the abortion clinics meeting the basic safety guidelines for clinics. What the hell is wrong with them?

I know they want population control, but they could at least think about the safety of the women. Hard to do when they refuse to acknowledge that abortion is an invasive procedure and that is is a big deal. Anything that can affect your health is a huge deal and yet they make abortions sound as simple as getting a manicure. Of course, nail salons probably get more inspections, like tanning salons do.

We keep hearing that abortions are just part of normal health care. Without getting into an abortion debate, can we discuss the fact that abortion clinics need to be safe because women are at risk if we allow the same conditions found at Gosnel's clinic. It's just unacceptable to skip inspections for something this important. I just want everyone to get real here. Save your opinion on abortions and just focus on the standards required for the safety of women's health.

According to The New York Post, the Department of Health in New York has, for more than a decade, failed to inspect a number of abortion clinics that it is charged with monitoring.

The Post reports: “Eight of the 25 clinics were never inspected over the 2000–12 span, five were inspected just once, and eight were inspected only twice or three times—meaning once every four or six years.”

In comparison, the Post notes, other industries, like tanning salons and restaurants, are inspected every year or every other year.

That's how they took em' down in Mississippi and elsewhere.

The abortion clinic run by the monster Dr. Kermit Gosnel who murdered children who were accidentally born by slicing off their heads wasn't working in some Russian gulag, he was operating in Philadelphia and there was no oversight by elected officials because they were afraid of the power of the abortion mafia. Only when a mother didn't come home after the botched mess did the Police investigate. Democrat administrations fear the abortion lobby more than they care about enforcing the law.

How about reading the NY Post article and refuting it with facts instead of your typical bullshit.

NYC’s tanning salons inspected more regularly than abortion clinics

This isn't even about debating abortion. It's about holding ALL medical people to the same high standards. Who in their right mind would have a problem with that?

After Gosnel caused that woman's death, it was discovered that his clinic hadn't been inspected in a very long time. He was using instruments that were rusty, had unclean conditions and was using outdated equipment. Safety clearly was not a priority. With inspections lacking, how do we know other clinics aren't just as bad?

 

[R.C. Christian]

Reasoning with that leftist skank is impossible you know.

 

[Clementine]

The questions are simple:

Should clinics meet standards to ensure safety?

Should government conduct regular inspections on all business or just some?

Should abortions be performed by doctors and other qualified medical people or anyone with a quick
course in abortions?

Should clinics have a plan in place to obtain emergency treatment right away, meaning close to a hospital where patient can be admitted?

 

[Mr. H.]

Who gives a shit as long as women are guaranteed their "choice"?.

It may be a choice clinic but it might not be a choice clinic. .

Damned abortive ghouls.

Perhaps they should bring back back-alley abortions again.

On the other hand, if abortion clinics could get the reputation of being unclean, unsanitary places where women get infections regularly, perhaps that would lower the abortion rate.

There seems little difference between that and Gosnel's clinic. The whole point of having it done at clinics was to ensure safety and that the procedure was done by doctors. Now we're going backwards. Speaking of the back alley abortions, people were getting a coat hanger pendant for donating to some abortion place. Strange that they would use that symbol as a thank you for supporting today's abortion clinics. Might be quite fitting in light of recent discoveries.

Somehow I doubt it. Some of those places had to look scary, yet the women showed up. Of course, if the liberal media refuses to report on this, many won't find out?

And you would have thought that alone would have spurred on more inspections, yet it obviously didn't. What does that say?

The left just doesn't want to look too hard at things they support. Normally, they are quick to sound the alarms and create more regulations for the slightest infraction. A handful of people get hit by cars backing up so they want cameras in all cars. They don't apply that same logic here even though the lives of the women are at risk. Millions of abortions are performed annually and that means a lot of people potentially at risk, yet they refuse to discuss it because they don't want to say anything even remotely negative about abortion clinics. It's like they are scared to confront them. If they address this, they might be afraid that some will think twice about going to the clinics and that might mean fewer abortions. It might cause people to actually think about what goes on in the clinics and that is distasteful, to say the least.

"According to the NY Post" which is a Rupert Murdoch News Corp. tabloid masquerading as news.

It's amazing that the people calling for more big government regulations on abortion clinics are the same people calling to dissolve the EPA. What happens without government regulations? Doctors perform abortions with rusty instruments and an energy company dumps chemicals into a river.

Which is it, Republicans?

Is the best you can do is come up with bullshit false choices. You ignorance never ceases to amaze.

 

[S.J.]

The GOP spent a few years torturing POWs to death in secret prisons. Tell us all about "evil".

Name one person who was "tortured to death" by the GOP? Do it or I neg your ass.
