Last week, Girl Scouts of the USA posthumously bestowed upon Amerie Jo Garza, 10, of Uvalde, Texas, one of the highest honors in Girl Scouting: the Bronze Cross. The Bronze Cross is awarded for saving or attempting to save life at the risk of the Girl Scout’s own life. 1/3
Thinking back to when I was in med school & asked my (male) GYN for an IUD. He told me it wasn't for women like me (No kids not married). I knew he was wrong but didn't feel I could argue. If I had been given that IUD I would not have needed an abortion.

C’mon guys.
BOOM: Connecticut REFUSES to cooperate with any investigators who try to hold out of state residents liable for traveling there to get an abortion.

He cites, as historical authority, Sir Matthew Hale.
Let me tell you about Hale & his views toward women.
