No Protests Outside Abortion Clinics By Mrs Vera West

Christian groups in Adelaide, many Catholic, mounted prayerful protests outside of abortion clinics for many years. The aim was not to be violent to women but to offer spiritual help and prayer, if that was wanted. But, we can’t have that.

“Laws that ban anti-abortion campaigners from protesting near abortion clinics passed South Australia’s upper house on Wednesday night.

The Legislative Council voted 14-7 in favour of the bill allowing safe access zones around premises that provide abortion services.

Under the new laws, a 150-metre exclusion zone must be established from the entrance of abortion clinics. Protesting within that zone will be illegal.

After passing the Legislative Council about 10pm on Wednesday, it brings SA in line with most other Australian states and territories.

Greens MLC Tammy Franks, who introduced the bill in the upper house, said until now SA was only one of two Australian states without safe access zones.

Western Australia are currently debating similar laws in parliament.

“For too long our dedicated health workers and the patients for whom they provide care were subjected to harassment, intimidation, and threats while trying to access or provide abortion services,” Ms Franks said.”

Ok, let God sort it out now, Christians fought the good fight.
