As long as there are state and local bans, restrictions, poor sexual education, and other hurdles for women and girls to deal with in the process of making reproductive decisions, women and girls will continue to visit illegal, unsanitary, unsafe practitioners and facilities.

Outlawing abortion didn't eliminate people like Gosnell. When abortion was illegal, there were many more people like this and they did many more horrific things. The more restrictive abortion laws get, the more desperate women get and the more likely horrors like this are to occur.
