The Abortion Rate

Why haven't we seen brave medical doctors going to prison for performing illegal abortions? 

A few doctors are openly breaking anti-abortion laws, and they are not being arrested. 

Roe was overturned in 2022. Since then the abortion rate in the USA has increased. 

About half the states have laws imposing penalties on doctors who perform abortions. Doctors are often unsure what is legal and what is not. 

Before death with dignity became legal, some doctors helped desperate patients die, but they did it surreptitiously. It seems likely that some doctors are secretly disobeying state anti-abortion laws today. 

We also have doctors who will stand around and watch a young woman die rather than risk breaking an anti-abortion law. These medical watchers are cowards.

I wonder if district attorneys are reluctant to risk their careers by trying abortion providers. 

This is what happens when a Supreme Court loses touch with reality.
