What exactly do abortion supporters mean by "safe" abortion? A woman suffered a perforated uterus and a lacerated colon in a botched abortion in Florida. After the botched abortion, local Pro-Life advocates helped the injured woman file suit with the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA). The AHCA found no violations and an attorney for the agency wrote, "Egherman (referring to abortionist William Egherman) did not breach the standard of care. Perforation of the uterus is a known and common complication of an abortion. Egherman acted timely and properly when he realized that the perforation might have occurred." Those facts establish that abortion is definitely not safe, and we already know it is certainly not rare, since it is the most common surgery performed. We can only conclude that the slogan, "abortion should be safe, legal, and rare" is a fantasy. In real life, abortion is dangerous, unregulated, and frequent, so why is this assault on women still legal? Maybe we need some post-abortive women on the U.S. Supreme Court!
