A popular mantra among abortion supporters, made popular by former President Bill Clinton, is that it must stay “safe, legal and rare.” The idea is that, as long as abortions are legal and kept out of the “back alley,” they are somehow safer.

I am sure that Rasheedah Dinkins would beg to differ. A month after undergoing a “safe” and “legal” abortion, Ms. Dinkins became seriously ill and was taken into the hospital where she “needed blood transfusions and had her uterus removed. She also suffered a stroke due to the serious blood loss and had one of her lungs collapse.”

“I was laying in my bed and I got the cold shakes,” Dinkins told AP about her ordeal. “My body kept going numb. After that, I don’t remember anything.”

Incidentally, this same clinic was recently shut down by health officials. Dinkins and another woman are suing the clinic which has been the defendant in numerous medical malpractice lawsuits.
