Should abortion clinics be regulated like other outpatient surgery facilities?


 
I've seen some activity by various states to push for this legislation.

On the one hand, I can see how this could be problematic for states where pro lifers are at the helm and enforce it with such overkill that some clinics would be forced to close or undergo extreme hardship.

On the other hand, if I'm going in for an abortion, I want to make damned sure they are staffed with competent, certified personnel, are enforcing strict sanitation guidelines and have the available equipment on hand and procedures in place should something go terribly wrong.

What do you think?

Every abortion goes horribly wrong.

1. They already are.

The problem with the horrible case in PA was that those regulations were not enforced.

Sounds like an NRA talking point about guns.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Abortion clinics are not outpatient surgery facilities. They are outpatient surgery fallacies.

Change "pro lifers" to democrats and "clinics" to utilities, gun rights, business, etc and, well, you know the rest...
"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

5. New safety rules are a ruse...

...to make abortions difficult to get despite being ostensibly legal.

This is known as the Barry strategy:

But.......unicorns, right?

It's alright.  It's just an inconvenient blob of cells that gets in the way of you getting your freak on.  I mean, it belongs to the government anyway, doesn't it?

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

Wonder how many DUmmies are wishing they hadn't been so strident in their glee for increased gun regulations. Just like the argument for gun control - If we can't outlaw abortion, we can certainly make it so expensive that few can afford it.  If the argument follows the gun grabbers' line, everyone who has an abortion must go through safety classes and testing, pay for a license to confirm they understand everything that will happen, and register in a national database.  We must also heavily regulate and tax abortion providers.  In addition to malpractice insurance, they must carry insurance to cover those who are affected by the tragedy of abortion. There are many people, beyond the mother, who are affected by the decision to terminate the life of the family member.

Quite simply, if they are going to argue that abortion is a valid medical procedure then they don't have any wiggle room in regards to abortion clinics being looked at just as stringently as any outpatient clinic.
