So what I expect to see is a massive influx of panicky teenagers from those areas who never learned to keep their knees together (parents fault, I'm guessing) into VA to take advantage of the lack of abortion laws here. Because of that circumstance, I have no doubt that congress will soon make a reaching attempt to legalize abortion nationwide under the "interstate commerce clause" like they did with civil rights and are still trying to do to infringe the Second Amendment.
It may not be as bad as many think. This new lot of younguns are a little smarter than those that came before.
I have had patients tell me they had already taken Plan B, before they even reported their assault. On more than one occasion the assailant is the one that purchased the Plan B and gave it to the patient.
Plan B, STD prophylactic antibiotics, and HIV medications, are provided, free of charge, to all patient that request services, whether they are reporting the assault or not. If they don't want the police involved then we don't report to the police, unless the person is under the age of 18. If under the age of 18, it is a case of mandatory reporting, and the police will then have to get involved.
Some of these young guys are caring Plan B just in case they get lucky, the same way my generation carried condoms. A lot of our young folk are in touch with what is going on in the world, they are just not mature enough to understand the repercussions or the possible consequences they may have to deal with for a lifetime. They don't understand what it means to live in a world that is "me" centered, when everyone is the primary "me" in the situation.
For every one person that read this post. About 7.99 billion have not.
Yet I still post.
