Richards then went on to explain that\u00a0she aborted her fourth child,\u00a0and it &#8220;wasn&#8217;t a difficult decision&#8221; for her or her husband.<\/p>\n<p>Wait a minute &#8211; is this a contradiction? Either abortion is difficult and deserves empathy&#8230; or it isn&#8217;t, and it\u00a0doesn&#8217;t. You can&#8217;t have it both ways, Ms. Richards.\u00a0If it <em>isn&#8217;t<\/em> a difficult decision, then why complain about a perceived lack of empathy toward women\u00a0who find themselves facing that decision?<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->Like\u00a0all good\u00a0pro-abortion feminists, Richards claims abortion was just no big deal for her. Her claim falls into line with the likes of writer Amanda Marcotte,\u00a0whose over-the-top diatribes cause much of the\u00a0population to wonder\u00a0if her writings are\u00a0satire or serious, and who, among other things,\u00a0has <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mrc.org\/articles\/marcotte-compares-abortion-cavity-removal-calls-babies-time-sucking-monsters\">compared abortion to having a cavity removed<\/a>. Her claim also falls into line with Ilyse Hogue, the president\u00a0of NARAL, who <a href=\"\/news\/naral-presidents-abortion-story-example-modern-feminisms-failure\/\">says she aborted<\/a>\u00a0her baby because she just couldn&#8217;t have been a mom and successful at the same time (how&#8217;s that feminism working out for you?).\u00a0And they&#8217;re <a href=\"\/news\/slate-writer-abortion-is-a-social-good-and-no-big-deal\/\">not alone<\/a>. Many women claim that aborting their children didn&#8217;t bother them in the slightest\u00a0&#8211; and this seems to be\u00a0exactly what today&#8217;s extreme pro-abortion feminists are hoping for.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/AbortionProcedures.com\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-88619\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveactionnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/levatino-ad-LAN.jpg\" alt=\"levatino-ad-LAN\" width=\"306\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/levatino-ad-LAN.jpg 306w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/levatino-ad-LAN-300x221.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 306px) 100vw, 306px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Live Action News writer Cassy Fiano has\u00a0<a href=\"\/news\/abortion-advocate-implores-pro-aborts-to-stop-calling-abortion-a-difficult-decision\/\">pointed out<\/a>\u00a0that in the past,\u00a0even Planned Parenthood and Hillary Clinton have\u00a0adhered\u00a0to the idea that\u00a0abortion is a difficult decision for women. Clinton called it not only difficult, but &#8220;soul-searching.&#8221; But now, despite the fact that the public believes\u00a0that <a href=\"\/news\/survey-most-americans-say-abortion-is-moral-issue\/\">women do (and should) wrestle with questions of abortion&#8217;s\u00a0morality<\/a>,\u00a0the most vocal abortion proponents no longer wish to go along with the impression that abortion is a &#8220;difficult decision.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After years of insisting that choosing\u00a0to abort one&#8217;s child is a gut-wrenching moral decision, pro-abortion feminists now\u00a0want to switch up the script. Why? And why now?<\/p>\n<p>Is it\u00a0because they never really believed abortion was all that gut-wrenching in the first place &#8211; they just knew they had to sell it that way to gain public acceptance? (After all, their go-to argument is still the hard case scenarios&#8230;\u00a0<a href=\"\/news\/pro-life-without-exceptions-isnt-political-suicide-hope-political-survival\/\">rape, incest<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"\/news\/ending-pro-aborts-exploitation-of-foreign-life-of-the-mother-cases\/\">life of the mother<\/a>. But in reality, they push for zero restrictions on abortion, regardless of circumstance or gestational age.) Is their\u00a0<a href=\"\/news\/new-york-times-editors-lament-pro-life-laws-2015\/\">anger about the wave of pro-life laws<\/a>\u00a0finally\u00a0causing the mask of reasonability\u00a0to fall away?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/news\/new-poll-shows-most-americans-would-ban-abortion-after-the-first-trimester\/\">87 percent of the American public <\/a>currently\u00a0believes\u00a0that abortion is\u00a0a &#8220;difficult decision,&#8221; and feels it should\u00a0be restricted after the first trimester.\u00a059 percent believe abortion does women more harm than good.\u00a0 The numbers aren&#8217;t trending favorably toward the pro-abortion feminist view.\u00a0\u00a0So now\u00a0pro-abortion feminists have chosen to\u00a0pretend that abortion isn&#8217;t really all that serious &#8211; no, no&#8230; it&#8217;s just a quick, simple procedure to fix a problem. We didn&#8217;t want a baby, so, we didn&#8217;t have one! Voila! No agonizing. No fuss. No difficulty.<\/p>\n<p>In reality, pro-abortion feminists like Cecile Richards &#8211; and the abortion giant\u00a0she leads &#8211; do women a disservice by presenting the abortion of children as an event of little consequence. They have sought to delegitimize the painful abortion experiences of <a href=\"\/news\/cnn-special-report-features-hundreds-of-women-who-regret-their-abortions\/\">millions of women who feel they were lied to or pressured into what\u00a0ended up being a life-altering choice<\/a>.

The right to abortion is more important to them than any pain individual women might experience as a result of the\u00a0choice to abort. The only stories of individual pain you&#8217;ll hear from the pro-abortion side are from women who\u00a0either can&#8217;t access abortion or who die from illegal abortion. Legal abortion deaths and injuries? Crickets.<\/p>\n<p>And let&#8217;s not forget that the preborn child is rarely considered at all.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/liveaction.org\/petition\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-84611\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveactionnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/NewDefundAd3.jpg\" alt=\"NewDefundAd3\" width=\"400\" height=\"170\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/NewDefundAd3.jpg 400w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/NewDefundAd3-300x128.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Under the leadership of a woman who believes abortion is not a difficult choice, Planned Parenthood has given women <a href=\"https:\/\/liveaction.org\/rosaacuna\/\">inaccurate medical information<\/a>\u00a0before abortions, has <a href=\"https:\/\/liveaction.org\/monalisa\/\">disregarded mandatory reporting laws<\/a> for statutory rape, and has aided and abetted <a href=\"https:\/\/liveaction.org\/traffick\/\">sex trafficking<\/a> of minor girls.<\/p>\n<p>Planned Parenthood and its president, Cecile Richards, aren&#8217;t about\u00a0helping women.\u00a0They&#8217;re about perpetuating the lie that abortion is easy and doesn&#8217;t harm anyone.\u00a0They&#8217;ve had to change their tune\u00a0because,\u00a0despite the fact that the public bought into the &#8220;abortion is a difficult decision&#8221; rhetoric they were selling, it still hasn&#8217;t made abortion palatable to the majority of people.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s still just no\u00a0way to make abortion a beautiful thing &#8211; because it isn&#8217;t.
