Stephan: The hysterical anti-choice crowd who are committed to keeping women in second-class status are now planning to try and stop girls and women from leaving Red states to go to Blue states where they can get the medical procedures or pills they need. And the mechanism for doing this is vigilantes. Fanatics who hope to make money stopping the women, or those who help them. It is very important that you be very clear that the anti-choice movement is not about protecting children.

While the safe and effective two-pill regimen may be given at a clinic in a state that has not banned abortions, like Montana, the patient […]
