Pro-Abortion Activists Callously Compare Babies To Tumors, “Cancer Is Live Tissue Too”

Wielding coat hangers, a coalition of sixty abortion rights groups organized a rally in Warsaw, Poland, over the weekend to protest a proposed law that would further restrict legal abortions in the country.

One of the protesters, Anna Jakobic, said that the right to an abortion must be defended, especially if one has a baby with disabilities. “No government can decide this. Maybe they also want to prohibit oncological operations? Cancer is also live tissue,” she said.

Poland’s current legislation, dating back to 1993, bans abortions except when the pregnancy is a result of rape or incest, poses a “health risk” to the mother, or if the fetus bears an anomaly, such as Down Syndrome.

The Prenatal Life Protection Law, backed by the prime minister, Beata Szydło, would ban abortion outright. The new bill, which has been submitted to the Polish parliament, acknowledges that rape is an evil act, but prohibits “punishing the child” for the crimes of the rapist.

According to opponents, the Law and Justice party (PiS), which was voted into office last October, carries “an agenda of nationalist conservatism, Euroscepticism and Catholic propaganda.”

Abortion activists reportedly organized “solidarity protests” in several other European cities as well, and a few hundred people demonstrated in front of the Polish embassy in London, shouting “my body, my choice.”

The weekend demonstrations underscored the tremendous impact that the American abortion lobby has had on Polish society and the abortion debate in particular. It was the American feminist Ann Snitow who first brought modern abortion technology to Poland in the early 1990s.

The use of coat hanger imagery by protesters was also imported into Europe by U.S. abortion-rights groups as a symbol of illegal, “back-alley” abortions.
