>A California doctor is proposing a floating abortion clinic in the Gulf of Mexico as a way to maintain access for people in southern states where abortion bans have been enacted.
>The idea is to provide a clinic aboard a ship in federal waters, and out of reach of state laws, that would offer first trimester surgical abortions, contraception and other care, said Dr. Meg Autry, an obstetrician and gynecologist and a professor at the University of California San Francisco.
>“There's been an assault on reproductive rights in our country and I'm a lifelong advocate for reproductive health and choice. We have to create options and be thoughtful and creative to help people in restrictive states get the health care they deserve,” she told The Associated Press.
>Autry said the idea is only in the fundraising stage through the non-profit, “PRROWESS” — short for “Protecting Reproductive Rights Of Women Endangered by State Statutes.”
>Autry said their legal team believes there is a swath of federal water where licensed providers could safely and legally provide abortions out of reach of state laws. For women in southern states with abortion bans, going to the coast and boarding a boat may be closer and easier than trying to travel to a state where abortion remains legal, she said.
>Autry said they are still trying to work out many of the details such as where the boat will launch and how women would get to the ship.
These people really really really really really want to murder children don't they? kek

Reminds me of the libertarian luxury liner someone proposed in the 70s. It would only dock to refuel and so nobody would ever pay taxes

Sounds like piracy in the gulf will be making a comeback!

Do they name the doctor? Does it end in berg or stein?

I'll gladly sink it. I would cleanse demons in the process. win-win

Some cruise line may take them up on the offer. Go on a 3-day cruise and kill your kid. Afterwards you can troll behind the ship using your fetus as bait, or head on over to the club and sacrifice it to Moloch.

Someday, people are going to look back on this era with great shame. Anthropologists will view it with morbid curiosity and try to figure out why so many people had mental issues.

Or maybe they just put you under, take a kidney and rape you and tattoo "no refunds" on your face before dropping you back on shore still pregnant. Can't sue if it's international waters

Definitely get started on the mini sub. That one of those thing where, if you need one, you REALLY need one.
