76. This story does not make sense

First of all, can the daughter sue the abortion clinics that turned her away? I cannot imagine that they can legally do this. I mean Philadelphia has abortion clinics that I cannot imagine turning people away. This story pisses me off quite a bit. The daughter has rights regardless of what the Repugnants Party says. The daughter needs a good lawyer to investigate the abortion clinics that refused service ASAP. What is this now? Jesus turned away from the manger time for people needing abortions? (Alittle ridiculous, but you know what I mean). This is just plain tragic! Our country is being taken over by the wackos who do not care about people at all.
