With all due respect to Ms. Pollitt, that's hogwash. Gosnell has had a flourishing practice since 1979, six years post-Roe, and he was aided and abetted in his deeds by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and its reluctance to probe too closely into his unorthodox practices. They obviously did this to avoid drawing the ire of the abortion industry and its most powerful lobby, Planned Parenthood. Roe is the law of the land, and despite legislative efforts to limit its scope, women still have a virtually unlimited right to dispose of their pregnancies as they dispose of their trash.
