The Urban Myth that Facilitated the Gosnell Murders Has Not Yet Been Stopped

TORONTO, Canada, -- "The Gosnell tragedy carried on for decades, because the medical community, media, and government actually believe the urban myth that abortion is the healthiest solution for the mother. Those who oppose it are 'religious zealots,' not scientists," according to a documentary filmmaker. He adds, "it was the police looking for illegal prescription activity, not medical authorities who had issued prior reprimands, who ended Gosnell's business. 'The Pennsylvania Department of Health abruptly decided, for political reasons, to stop inspecting abortion clinics at all.'"
