New York University professor Jonathan Zimmerman’s misogynist opinion piece Why Gosnell’s victims went to him caught my eye. I can answer the question far better than he does. Why did Gosnell's victims go to him?
Gosnell’s victims went to him because their mothers took them there. The babies were minding their own business and had no idea that their mothers had walked into an abortuary. When their mothers strapped into the stirrups, the babies had no idea that their lives were about to end. When Gosnell inserted his bladed instruments, forceps and suction device into womb after womb, the babies had no idea why they were being forced to die.
Mr. Zimmerman is correct that Gosnell's victims were “Someone[s] who didn’t have any other choices, that’s who.”
