Wanted: Women who have had an abortion in Kansas


Now that the Johnson County grand jury investigating Planned Parenthood has completed its work without issuing any indictments, the anti-abortion group Operation Rescue seems to be moving on to a new investigation.

Operation Rescue sent out an interesting email this morning asking women who have had abortions in Kansas in the past five years to contact them.

The email doesn't say why, but that five year period is significant - that also happens to be the statute of limitations for many crimes, including abortion-related crimes.

"We are looking for girls who had abortions at any age of gestation who were under the age of 15 at the time of their abortion," the email says. "We are also seeking women who had abortions in their 22nd week of pregnancy or later."

The group asks that women who fall into these categories contact them. "We would love to speak with you," the email says. "Your communications will remain confidential and your identity will be protected."

3. we want to help you...

Operation Rescue is operating a little too close to Fred Phelps territory to not have some of it rub off....

11. Weird obsessions.
Other people's abortions definitely qualifies as a weird obsession.

12. This is the ultimate goal of the anti-abortion forces...punishment & silencing us all.
More who think of reproductive rights as some sort of "wedge" should read this and think long and hard about what exactly it means!
