Feb 16, 2012 Dangerous Abortion Drug Abused Anissa Borchardt Last year a Maryland woman Sandra Craine, gave a highly potent drug knows as RU-486 to a 16 year old girl Life Site News reported. Craine obtained this highly dangerous drug overseas via mail and gave it to a young girl who was already 20 weeks pregnant. The package clearly stated this drug was to be taken under a doctor’s supervision and in the first 10 weeks of pregnancy. The young girl took the drug and quickly ended up in the hospital in massive pain; her baby was born shortly after, but quickly died. Assistant State’s Attorney Kevin B. Urick said, “The packaging stated that a prescription was needed to obtain the medication and that it should According to News 11 Craine pleaded guilty in December to reckless endangerment by giving the teen a dose of RU-486. However Craine was not held responsible for the death of the unborn child Cecil Whig newspaper reported. Due to a plea agreement Craine has been sentenced to six months of home detention. This isn’t the first incident that has occurred since RU-486 became available to consumers. “The FDA released a report in 2006 that received widespread attention for showing more than 1,100 women had been subjected to “adverse effects” resulting from their taking the abortion drug mifepristone, commonly known a RU 486.” Then last April, FDA issued a more recent report that shows deaths and injuries to women who have taken this drug; 14 women in the United States have died from taking this drug and 2,207 women have been injured by it which varies from significant blood loss resulting in a transfusion and severe infections, yet many women are unaware of these reports "despite mounting evidence that the abortion drug continues to kill and injure women across the globe." The FDA report continues to outline the severity of this drug which forces many to be hospitalized for at least 2-3 days and often administered intravenous antibiotics. Others developed infections in the womb, reproductive organs such as the ovaries or fallopian tubes and there is a risk that the infection can spread beyond the reproductive organs. Despite all these findings, Planned Parenthood is still found misusing this abortion drug. “Administration of mifepristone and misoprostol is contraindicated in patients with confirmed or suspected ectopic pregnancy (a pregnancy outside the uterus,” the abortion drug was given to women in 58 cases where they had an ectopic pregnancy.

Feb 8, 2012 University in Pennsylvania Sells Plan B In Vending Machine Lucy Feil
A Pennsylvania university has decided to make aborting your baby as easy as putting money in a vending machine. According to Time’s Healthland blog, Shippensburg University has a vending According to the Associated Press, Shippensburg decided to install the machine after a survey of its students found that 85% of respondents were in favor of it. Peter Gigliotti, a spokesman for the college, told the AP that only students and university employees can access the machine, which is in the school’s health center. Students must check in at the lobby before being allowed in. Dr. Roger Serr, Vice President of Student Affairs, said the machine’s primary purpose was “for privacy,” to make it more comfortable for the students to buy the pills. He told CBS that the school’s female population buys somewhere between 350 and 400 doses each year. Exactly how “comfortable” it should be to buy these pills which can cause early abortions and may pose medical risks for the takers? Not only does dispensing them through a vending machine make abortion seem disturbingly casual, but it raises the likelihood that young women will take them without first seeking medical attention or receiving information about the risks. Kristan Hawkins of Students for Life of America spoke out against the machine, as reported by LifeNews: “What I and thousands of the students SFLA serve find most outrageous about this story is that Shippensburg University has placed a higher priority on what they perceive to be politically correct than on the safety and well-being of their female students.” “Shippensburg University’s decision to sell Plan B – an emergency contraception that results in the murder of pre-born children and one that touts a slew of harmful effects on women – in a vending machine on campus is reflective of how dangerous the disease of abortion has become,” she added. Rather than dispensing a quick-fix which is both dangerous and life-ending, there are better services the school could be providing, which would be actually helpful to women in need. As Carol Tobias, National Right to Life president, pointed out to the AP, “It would be a much more productive use of funds if universities would partner with local pregnancy resource centers where students can get real help if they need it.”
