The editorial staff of the Peoria Journal Star continues to amaze me. Unfortunately, it is an amazement based upon the proposition that they continue to support the unsupportable. I guess it should not be a surprise. They support the murder of unborn babies so why wouldn't they support any method to continue that murderous behavior. On August 4, 2005; an editorial was printed in support of selling abortion pills over the counter with almost the same ease as buying aspirin.

Here is a quote from the editorial. "Two months later Barr Laboratories proposed a solution so easy you'd think even the feds could have thunk it: Require pharmacies to limit sales to those 17 and older. That was in July of 2004." Either the editorial writers are terribly naive or they think we are!

A few reasons why such a policy should not be enacted include the following. Some pharmacists are now objecting to dispensing the abortion pill with a prescription. Does the editorial board believe they will change their position if it is now sold over the counter? It is just as likely that a small town owner who is opposed to the abortion pill will not carry it at all. They certainly have the right to carry the over the counter medicine they choose to carry. Do they plan on forcing all pharmacies by legislation, executive fiat as in Illinois, or by judicial tyranny to stock over the counter abortion pills? I love their concept of choice. Some want the choice to murder the unborn while trying to deny anyone who opposes such murder any choice in the matter. The only choice that is proper is their choice!

Next, you have the problem of pharmacies policing the sell of over the counter medicine--checking to insure that the buyer is 17 or older. We have already started that process in relation to some cold medicines; let's continue it with abortion pills. Soon, store workers will be spending more time policing the distribution of products than serving the customer.

Another quote from the editorial is "Presently it requires a prescription, which isn't always easy to come by in emergencies, particularly those which occur on weekends, and more so when the woman or teen needing help (what an obscene use of the word!) has no doctor to call." What happens if, in this great emergency need for an abortion pill, the customer doesn't have proper identification? Deny that poor person the opportunity to possibly murder an unborn baby? Another question, why is someone who has no doctor having unprotected intercourse? I'm sure Planned Murderhood would not hesitate to provide a prescription. Their goal in life seems to be to murder as many unborn babies as possible. Do you think caring adult males will stock up on abortions pills to help his partner out of her predicament? Will women select the abortion pill as their "birth control" method of choice since she only has to pop one pill as needed? No need; no pill!

What is the legal age to become an adult in this country? To our editorial writers it must be 17. If anyone sold or provided my minor child abortion pills without my permission, I would sue them in civil court and file criminal charges of contributing to the delinquency of a minor. Why is it that this editorial board, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the United States Supreme Court think they have the right to replace the decisions of a parent with their own warped opinion of right and wrong?

Finally, probably the most egregious problem with this ludicrous proposal is the obvious one--obvious to any one who gives it two seconds of thought. At the present time, age restrictions apply to both the purchase of cigarettes and alcohol. Yet, any 16 year old can get cigarettes if he wants them and the most prevalent drug problem in high school is the illegal use of alcohol. No one can really expect that a law restricting the use of abortion pills that are purchased over the counter is going to prevent the use of them by those who are too young. Nobody!!!

The fact is that the unborn baby murderers have been worried for thirty two years that the people of the United States would regain their senses and the Supreme Court decision that allows the murder of unborn babies will be reversed. The fact is that the country is finally moving in that direction and the libertines are scared to death. The fact is that they want to flood the country with nonprescription abortion pills so that abortions can continue even after the 1973 decision is trashed by a court that doesn't rewrite the Constitution with their decisions. The fact is that they fear the power of the American people to overturn the decision of nine men. Prayerfully that will happen!
