U.S. Supreme Court upholds late term abortion ban
Most press just call it ‘the controversial abortion law’. Why is it controversial?
Because most big media are complicit with the abortion industry and therefore against any restrictions on abortion whatsoever. But the Texas law bans abortions after 20 weeks, which means killing five month old babies in the womb. We should at least be able to agree on that.
But instead, we’ve had high drama and intense, pitched battles over the legal ‘right’ to kill five month old babies. ‘Choice’ and ‘termination of pregnancy’ and ‘a woman’s right to an abortion’ have dominated news stories, still. After the Kermit Gosnell trial, most or many of us thought we wouldn’t go back there again, to that dark place of disguising the horrible truth of what the abortion logic really is.
So the Texas battle reached the Supreme Court and they ruled this week. Here’s how it played in the press that should have grown more mature in its reporting by now.
A sharply divided Supreme Court on Tuesday allowed Texas to continue enforcing abortion restrictions that opponents say have led more than a third of the state’s clinics to stop providing abortions.
What kind of lead is that? Tendentious.
The justices voted 5-4 to leave in effect a provision requiring doctors who perform abortions in clinics to have admitting privileges at a nearby hospital.
Which…what?…sounds at the very least logical. Especially given the number of times and cases across the country when an ambulance has had to pull up to an abortion clinic to rush a woman off for critical life-saving medical treatment after a botched abortion. So…
The court’s conservative majority refused the plea of Planned Parenthood and several Texas abortion clinics to overturn a preliminary federal appeals court ruling that allowed the provision to take effect.
Note that these stories never report how ‘the court’s liberal majority’ ruled on other opinions that meet media approval.
