Soapbox – In Phoenix,
Ruth Ann Burns sued two local physicians because she did not find out she was
pregnant until it was too late to have an abortion. She stated that her son,
Nicholas, is keeping her from her career goals and financial independence. The
boy’s father, David Gomez, stated that he resents the financial impact that
raising Nicholas has made. In the past, they had aborted three other children
to avoid that obligation. The jury sided with the physicians.

Impacting the Medical Community
1. Future
of abortion provision is not in free-standing mills. The pro-choice goal is to
mainstream abortion.
2. Doctors
think abortionists are scum but they will use them.
3. OB-GYNs have been known to use abortion as a way to cover up
mistakes they have made during the pregnancy. The example given is of a Virginia
woman who was pressured by her obstetrician into aborting her baby because he
had given her medication while she was pregnant that could cause severe birth
defects.
4. It
is much easier to impact the much smaller medical community than it is to
influence the nation.
5. Direct
mail sent to physicians is very effective and totally legal.
6. There
is nothing legally that the pro-aborts can do about direct mail and there is no
counter attack they can make against the mailings.
7. National
Abortion Federation and Medical Students for Choice have launched initiative to
force residents to perform abortions.
8. There
reasoning for this is that even if the doctors won’t be providing abortions,
they do need to know how to treat the complications from them.
