It's not about safety
 

TRAP standards are not about safety. That's a convenient mask. I am not going to reference any made up statistics to try and prove my point, unlike many other commenters I have seen. By enforcing TRAP, clinics will be forced to shut their doors, clinics that provide neccesary healthcare (NOT JUST ABORTIONS) to many underserved and impoverished women. By doing that, you kill them slowly, along with their children which you are forcing them to have. It breaks my heart that people are being deluded into thinking this is about "safety". Also, religious arguments should be immidiately dismissed. We don't live in a theocracy and it is none of anyone's business.
