A floating temple of Moloch? Creative!
No really: In connection to a nonprofit called Protecting Reproductive Rights Of Women Endangered by State Statutes (PRROWESS), OBGYN Meg Autry is proposing a floating abortion clinic in the Gulf of Mexico in order to bypass state abortion bans.
Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas have all banned abortions completely. Florida has limited abortions to 15 weeks with exceptions if the life of the mother is in jeopardy or for serious fetal abnormalities.
From Bay Area NBC:
[Dr. Autry] explained that this ship will operate on federal waters โ nine miles from the coast of Texas and three from the coast of Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi โ where it can evade those states' abortion restrictions. PRROWESS will arrange for patients to be transported to the ship, which will vary depending on where they are coming from, once they pass a pre-screening process.
Autry and a team of licensed medical professionals will offer surgical abortions for up to 14 weeks of pregnancy. The PRROWESS team would also offer other point-of-care gynecological services such as testing and treatment for sexually transmitted infections.
"The project is being funded with philanthropy and the patients care is on a needs basis, so most individuals will pay little to nothing for services," Autry said.
Lawsuits have been filed in most of these states trying to stop the bans, but Dr. Autry doesn't hold much hope that the court cases will be successful (let's pray she's right), so she thinks the best bet for the abortion industry to keep killing babies in these states is to have a floating clinic in Federal waters that can be accessed by boat or helicopter because it would still be easier than traveling to another state where abortion remains legal.
I mean honestly, the lengths these people will go to in order to kill a baby are just unimaginable.
Imagine how horrifying that floating butchery would be.
