Texas Abortionist Announces in Op-Ed that He’s Purposefully Broken State’s New Anti-Abortion Law
In an op-ed for The Washington Post titled “Why I violated Texas’s extreme abortion ban” Texas baby-killer, Alan Baird has announced that he has purposefully broken Texas new anti-abortion, which bans most abortions after six weeks, explaining that he slaughtered a baby in the womb (our words) in order to challenge its constitutionality and possibly be the first test-case for the Texas heartbeat law.
Describing it as “1972 all over again” before Roe v. Wade became law, Baird recounts how the new law bans any abortion beyond about the sixth week of pregnancy and shuts down about 80 percent of the abortion services they offer, something he finds intolerable. Furthermore, anyone who suspects him or any abortionist of violating the new law can sue them for at least $10,000, as well as sue anyone who helps a person obtain an abortion past the new limit.
He explains
“I fully understood that there could be legal consequences — but I wanted to make sure that Texas didn’t get away with its bid to prevent this blatantly unconstitutional law from being tested.
…I have daughters, granddaughters and nieces. I believe abortion is an essential part of health care. I have spent the past 50 years treating and helping patients. I can’t just sit back and watch us return to 1972.”
In response to these alegations, John Seago, legislative director for Texas Right to Life, said that his organization is looking into these claims in order to assess whether they are true, or if this is just an attention grab, noting that they have 4 years to bring a claim against him if true
“It definitely seems like a legal stunt and we are looking into whether it is more than that.”

I don’t understand how anyone can’t see abortion as anything less than murder. It boggles the mind.
