Of course, my heart goes out this young girl that was raped.<BR/><BR/>Nonetheless, I can't condone your rage and senseless recomendation of an obortion.<BR/><BR/>In my opinion, the girl did not deserve to be raped and you had no right to influence her so heavily about getting an abortion.<BR/><BR/>I'm sorry but I think you like the rapist are a bad person.<BR/><BR/>Ignorance is bliss (is seems to me that it fits you and the rapist)!<BR/><BR/>You think that by emphatizing with her you are doing a good job (making you a good person), but you were just messing things up even more.<BR/><BR/>Rethink you Options<BR/>Reevalute your motives<BR/><BR/>ITS NOT ABOUT YOU LADY <BR/>It's about life and facing it <BR/><BR/>You can pretend all you want, that you knew what was best for that girl.

The rapist should be killed for what he did, but the child has done absolutely nothing, and is therefore innocent: death is not just in this case...<BR/><BR/>Um, should't you stop trying to use emotional appeals to convince people that abortion is murder then? Practice what you preach much?<BR/><BR/>Even better, you are not this girl, therefore, you don't dictate what happens to her body. Simple as that.<BR/><BR/>The victim didn't do anything either, so why should she be forced to endure a pregnancy that she didn't ask for? Because it makes people like you feel better?

I can't even begin to imagine what she is going through as she waits for her period. <BR/><BR/>I'm at a loss for words regarding the inaction of the hospital staff as they skipped over what should have been a no-brainer with the emergency contraceptive. What were they thinking? If it's just something they overlooked, they better update their checklists. If it was purposely overlooked, they should just do their jobs and get over themselves. I am sick and tired of people forcing their idea of 'morality' down our throats.<BR/><BR/>I hope they catch the monster that did this and he does some serious jail time. And I wish you luck with your sit-down with with hospital. If she is pregnant, they should pay - big time. I usually steer away from law suits since it seems that everyone is doing it, but maybe suing them might be the only way to teach them a lesson. <BR/><BR/>You are one strong woman, and that young lady is lucky to have you around.

Do you have any idea what happens when you go to an ER and say that you've been raped? Do you really think that there are women who will go the lengths of having a humiliating and painful examination of their bodies, complete with swabs, scrapings, combings and <I>photographs</I> and the barrage of questions and interviews in order to get a dosage of a medication that is available over the counter for less than the cost of dinner out?<BR/><BR/>And are you under the impression that ER visits for rape victims are free, so that this would somehow be more economically feasible than buying EC?<BR/><BR/>And do you believe that there are no ramifications for filing a false report for rape, so that any woman who wanted to do this could, for kicks?<BR/><BR/>To be kind, you're nuts. And no woman should be denied EC after a rape on the basis of nonsense "what if" scenarios dreamed up by people who have no grasp on logic.Amadihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00220291142358494634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-77325138175912535152007-05-15T17:26:00.000-05:002007-05-15T17:26:00.000-05:00I came in late on this one...I know this is a mess...I came in late on this one...<BR/><BR/>I know this is a message about contraception. blah blah.... But one thing about these kinds of stories that pisses me off is the lack of reporting...or seemingly, the lack of even an instinct to report it. <BR/><BR/>This is why so many of these cases go unreported/unsolved....and lets the Monster know that "well.... I was not caught this time... I can go ahead and do it again to someone else". In fact, he probably did this to someone else prior to attacking this 14 year old.<BR/><BR/>While everyone was doing all the running around mentioned above, did anyone think to contact Police?<BR/>The offender is now free to come back and do it again. And God forbid if the suspect is an adult who she has to listen to or live with or put her trust in... THIS WILL KEEP HAPPENING...if that's the case.<BR/><BR/>Did the Doctors do a crime test????? WTF!!!!!!!!!!!<BR/><BR/>Why no police report? I think in cases of a minor...any adults involved in the response (including the Doctors) <B>should be required</B> to contact police for an investigation. And I thought that was already required for hospitals... <BR/><BR/>But these kinds of stories raise my blood pressure.... <BR/><BR/>The beginning of the message said that she went home afterwards... and later decided to take action after complications???????<BR/><BR/>Why didn't she call police?<BR/><BR/>Then the first thing she was asked (i'm assuming) by a trusted adult was if the hospital offered her emergency contraception & if she knew what that was?????? WTF!!!!<BR/><BR/>Yes...that's a very important question...I will concede that.. But it should not have been the most pressing issue at that very moment.<BR/><BR/>Why wasn't she asked if she reported it to police so that something more could be done about the asshole who raped her? Why wasn't she asked if the suspect was under arrest or whether anyone was looking for him? That should have been the first question... then we could move to the contraception and all the rest.<BR/><BR/>Or will she be one of these young women who doesn't press charges when they are raped????? <BR/><BR/>*Now I have a migraine*Brian https://www.blogger.com/profile/07872444863142531165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-80843341020504514622007-05-15T15:30:00.001-05:002007-05-15T15:30:00.001-05:00What an abhorrent failure of our medical system. ...What an abhorrent failure of our medical system.
