- Your answer about the safety of RU-486 was unresponsive the first
- time, PHoney. Why are you repeating it?
-
- There has been one death. The known risks of prostaglandins and
- smokers more than likely account for it. You keep referring to
- some article but never producing any thoughts. (Of course, you
- also seem to think that the authors are credible simply because
- you refer to them as "pro-choice feminists." You don't seem to
- think the rest of us are smart enough to catch on the you label
- most women that way when they support your arguments - the label
- doesn't seem to have anything to do with their stance on abortion
- rights nor on women's rights.)
-
- RU-486 has been available in France (and other countries) for
- several years now. There are statistics available about its
- safety. I know why you don't post them, of course. You'll
- wait until someone fabricates a study that reflects your fantasy.
- I suggest asking Rev. Holtsinger to do it for you.
-
- There have been more deaths associated with menstrual extraction
- than with RU-486. Your attempts to claim that one is clearly
- safer than the other do not reflect reality. No one is surprised,
- since little you say reflects reality, but we'll keep pointing
- it out.
