While I do agree for the most part with the student who
authored the blog post titled, “Lets
Meet in the Middle,” I think there are a few points that can be argued
here. On one hand, I can certainly see how pro-choice supporters’ actions can
be viewed as a bit extreme. However, given the circumstances these supporters
face, I do sympathize with their situation. Anyone who faces a Texas-sized
opposition to their cause would very likely kick and scream and wear all of the
bells and whistles to try and impress upon them that it is a very sensitive and
important issue that they are passionately fighting for.
The other point I’d like to argue is that in my opinion,
this piece of legislation actually does have a drastic effect on abortions in
the state of Texas. There will only be a handful of clinics who will pass the
new standards and the rest will have to either pull a major overhaul or be put
to rest. This in turn will leave the masses of women in Texas who seek abortion
procedures only a few clinics to choose from, and with their high volume of
patients, these clinics will have to turn the majority of them away.
