Doctors Rip Claim Abortions Needed for ‘Mental Health'

2018-05-18

[Breitbart] Irish psychiatrists are condemning the claim that the repeal of Ireland’s Eighth Amendment prohibiting most abortions is necessary for women’s mental health.

"To use ’health’ as a justification for abortion, when the vast majority of abortions do not take place on any kind of health ground, inverts the true purpose of medicine and doctors who value their calling should have nothing to do with this," write 24 Irish psychiatrists in a letter regarding the upcoming referendum on the amendment. "Our Minister for Health, for his part, must defend the true purpose of medicine."

The doctors get immediately to the core of the way in which the Left uses media to advance its narrative in the area of abortion.

#3 I suspect a lot of lefty activists would go insane if abortion were no longer legal. They've built decades of self-worth around the issue.
