   Any time a child is abused, it’s a commentary on where we’ve   
   collectively gone wrong in our society. This is why we heave a   
   communal cry of grief when we learn of situations like the one   
   shared this past week when Indiana abortionist Caitlin Bernard,   
   MD, MS, revealed to The Indianapolis Star that she’d treated a   
   10-year-old Ohio girl who’d become pregnant due to rape, after a   
   colleague from that state contacted her due to a perceived   
   abortion limitation in Ohio state law.   
      
   The story was shared by mainstream media and was discussed by   
   politicians and pundits on social media. It made waves, to say   
   the least.   
      
   We have no way of knowing whether it’s true without potentially   
   violating a little girl’s privacy further, which no one wants.   
   However, when it comes to abortion, we are weighing the balance   
   between two human lives, so while our protective response is   
   appropriate it must be tempered by seeking the truth, which can   
   sometimes seem insensitive.   
      
   Expecting a child to be violated in order to satisfy a need for   
   answers is not an option. We can question the motives of the   
   physician who possibly broke the law by disclosing information   
   about the sexual assault of a child, because she is more than   
   just a doctor caring for her patients. Dr. Caitlin Bernard has   
   filed at least one lawsuit in the past, challenging Indiana anti-   
   abortion legislation. She has testified at legislative meetings   
   regarding abortion pill reversal – claiming a law requiring her   
   to tell patients reversal is possible would be unethical, citing   
   a discontinued study which supposedly proved the reversal   
   protocol was dangerous (it’s not- Dr. Donna Harrison shares the   
   real reason it was discontinued in THIS interview). She has   
   written content for Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky.   
   She provides pro-abortion soundbites for the ACLU, and as   
   recently as last week was providing pro-abortion commentary for   
   mainstream news sources like NPR. She is a political activist   
   who also happens to be a physician.   
      
   And she is not the only one.   
      
   In 2019, Amy Addante, MD, MSCI, an OBGYN who specializes in   
   reproductive health (i.e., abortions) shared a claim that one of   
   her patients was held hostage in a pregnancy resource center.   
   Her Twitter thread was almost 5,000 words long — over twice as   
   long as a typical news related article (800-1200 words). Because   
   it was a Twitter thread, there was no pushback; no fact checking   
   from any major media source. Portions of the thread were shared   
   tens of thousands of times, not including screenshots which made   
   their way onto Facebook. As quickly as the thread rose to   
   prominence it sunk into obscurity. At least online — we have no   
   way of knowing how many people were influenced by her unverified   
   — and unverifiable — story. Dr. Addante is also not just a   
   physician, but an abortion activist. She too was in the news   
   just days after Roe was overturned, providing commentary for   
   CBS, regarding how abortion restrictions put women suffering   
   through ectopic pregnancies at risk.   
      
   READ: FACT: Treatments for miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy are   
   legal in every state   
      
   Neither of these anecdotes are (currently) verifiable. Both of   
   them are terrifying. And both may dissuade women from seeking   
   care for pregnancy related emergencies.   
      
   When coupled with reports from Missouri questioning the legality   
   of birth control, the arrest of Lizelle Herrera in Texas for her   
   “self-managed abortion,” and breathless accounts of doctor’s   
   presenting cases of ectopic pregnancies to hospital ethics   
   boards before treatment, post-Roe America seems to be the scary   
   place Planned Parenthood has warned us it would be, all along.   
      
   Except it’s not.   
      
   Missouri anti-abortion legislation doesn’t outlaw birth control,
