FDA APPROVES HOME ABORTION KIT

NEWARK, NJ, Sept 3 (LSN) – Yesterday the US Food and Drug Administration approved sales and marketing of a do-it-yourself abortion kit including a “morning after pill.” According to the Associated Press, the “PREVEN” kits are being advertised by Gynetics Inc. and will be available by prescription by the end of September.

American Life League President Judie Brown condemned the decision, but said it “does not surprise those of us who understand that government agencies will go to any length to pander to the sexually irresponsible. The fact that women will suffer various physical and emotional complications — and the fact that preborn children will be destroyed — never stopped the FDA before. So why should it now?” Proposing a constructive response to unplanned pregnancy, she said: “It’s called chastity. It requires no prescription.”
