I won’t dignify it by linking to it, but there’s a movement afoot called The Pill Kills, put together by some anti-choicers who want you to think that the pill causes abortion.
Feministing has a post by a real doctor who points out the campaign is misleading and, you know, based on big fat lies. (But this is the same song and dance we’ve been through before. The Pill prevents pregnancy from starting, it doesn’t kill babies, la dee da.)
Also worth mentioning, there’s a terrifying essay in the Times by a doctor who describes what women did to themselves to end pregnancies before Roe. It highlights that, in a world without legal abortion, abortions will still happen. You know how you prevent all this death? You let women take their Pills.
