Horrified and Enraged

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-54160638 



This article showed up on my FB feed with a threat that anyone who calls themselves "Pro Life" should be horrified and enraged.

Let's start with the obvious, it's still an unverified/unproven allegation about one ICE detention center.

So, IF this proves to be true, I'll be horrified and enraged and support those responsible being punished to the fullest extent of the law.   If not, I guess it'll be one more instance where somebody raised a big stink before all the information was available.

"In statements released on Monday, ICE said it was taking the allegations seriously and was "firmly committed to the safety and welfare of all those in its custody"."

 

Again, actions speak louder than words, and we'll see, but at least ICE is saying the right things.

 If we dig a little deeper in the article, it sounds like it's literally ONE Dr, doing more hysterectomies that  someone thinks are appropriate.  

So, yes if this turns out to be true, I'll be appalled and fully supportive of whatever corrective measures are taken.   Of course, I'm not sure what it has to do with being "Pro Life".  Especially since, in some locales,  abortion providers aren't required to meet the same health and safety standards that other outpatient medical facilities are.    Yet, I don't see the Pro Choice folks too horrified or enraged about that.
