Women on Waves *celebrates* 10th anniversary...

... I mourn for all of the innocent lives that have been taken through their 10 years of activity.

I am currently sitting in a Country where abortion is illegal. What a beautiful place it is. I am currently in Dublin, Ireland, and I can honestly say that I have never seen more children, families, and pregnant women, in my life. In the States, abortion has become so widely accepted, that is almost seems a rarity to see pregnant women and young families. But, here in Ireland, it's weird when you walk 2 minutes and don't see a pregnant woman or a parent pushing a stroller. Erin Go Bragh!

Even though abortion is illegal here in Ireland (and a few other places in the world) there was a group called Women on Waves that would still provide abortions to women in this Country. They would take a boat into the countries where abortion was illegal, pick women up and take them into international waters for the actual abortion- calling these "abortion ships". Now, after 10 years, they have been facing some legal issues and have been grounded, as they *celebrate* their 10th Anniversary. I hope this trickery of theirs comes to an end. Abortion is illegal here for a reason; because the Irish people understand simple human rights and do not want the blood of abortion on their hands. Keep abortion out of Ireland, all throughout the world, and off of these ships!!! Erin Go Bragh!!!
