Parents Should Know About Surgery
How can we expect parents to care for their teen if they don't even know their teen has undergone surgery?

Absolutely Agree
The Mere fact that we have to vote on a proposition such as this means that Legislators who left out this HUGE minor detail of not telling Parents are INSANE!

Rebecca Gomperts Abortion Boat
Francis: Incredible - This is way we need Garabandal! Dr Gomperts bring the worst of humanity to shores around the world.
It was a stint as resident doctor aboard Greenpeace's Rainbow Warrior II boat that inspired Gomperts to set up WoW (Women on Waves).
Rebecca Gomperts is the sort of pioneer the left would despise. A white European, she seeks to circumvent laws, trample non-Western cultures, and overturn indigenous customs throughout the Third World. While she’s at it, Gomperts will actively try to curb the growth of various non-white populations and impose Western attitudes over local religions and values.
If Gomperts were exporting blue jeans or Big Macs, liberals would roundly condemn her for the crime of cultural genocide. But instead, she is exporting abortion, for which the left’s enthusiasm exceeds its disdain for cultural imperialism.
She is a 42-year-old Dutch abortionist. She is also the founder of the Women on Waves Foundation—an effort to literally ship abortion to the one-quarter of the world’s nations that enshrine the right to life in their laws. Gomperts’ plan is to charter a 150-foot ship, christen it Sea Change, and convert the boat into a floating abortuary that would anchor itself just outside the territorial waters of countries that ban abortion. From that safe distance, Women on Waves would not only expand the abortion industry to untapped markets, but also spread the worldview that sustains it. The Sea Change would deliver euphemistic utilitarianism, amorality, women’s exploitation, and lawlessness—all hallmarks of the culture of death.

Abortion Boat Part 2
Preparing for a voyage
“We are not intending to commit any crime,” Gomperts insists, because “in international waters, abortion is not a crime.”1 In fact, because the Sea Change would fly under the Dutch flag, Dutch law—abortion on demand after an initial consultation and a five-day waiting period—would prevail. The Sea Change would come into port and offer consultations, distribute contraceptives, and operate a dockside museum on sexual education. After picking up about 20 prospective customers, the ship would sail to international waters, where Gomperts would ply her trade. “An abortion performed by trained providers is a very simple and safe procedure which can take no longer than 5-10 minutes,” Gomperts explains.2 She estimates that the Sea Change could rid about 100 mothers of their unborn children each week. Depending on local demand, the ship would stay in port for up to six months at a time.
The Sea Change puts a feminist spin on the Rainbow Warrior’s brand of activism-piracy. The ship would have an all-female crew, consisting of one or two doctors, a nurse, a captain, and deckhands. It would be equipped with all the usual tools of modern seafaring, like satellite communications and navigation equipment, plus some less conventional amenities: an ultrasonograph, a suction machine, hospital beds with stirrups.
Designed by Dutch artist Josep van Lieshout, the “treatment room” “is aimed at transforming a clinical environment into a friendly and comfortable place.”3 Or, put less euphemistically, it seeks to create a cozy atmosphere that conceals the efficient brutality that takes place inside. To that end, the interior is painted in a placid “duck eggshell white.” The blueprints note that to “make this small place agreeable, sharp edges and straight edges are avoided.” Outside the abortion chamber is the reception area, “a friendly warm space where the client can speak to the doctor and have a drink or a refreshment,” just like Jiffy Lube
