Back Allies will be Safer Than This

Aug 21, 2024

Robyn Reid was 15 years old and pregnant. She was determined to keep her baby. She spent the previous three months hiding the pregnancy from her parents. But when her mother found out, she took Robyn to the “House of Horrors” to get a forced abortion.

“I was determined to keep the baby,” Robyn said. “My plan was to go to the doctor and refuse to have the abortion as I thought ‘no one can make me.’ My 15-year-old brain thought there wasn’t even a chance that would happen to me.” 

What happened was unbelievable. Robyn shared her story with The Independent:

Inside the clinic, I remember being in the room and the doctor walked in and said: “Why aren’t you undressed?” When I told him “I’m not having an abortion,” he shouted: “I don’t have time for this s***.”

He then walked out of the room and came back in with my grandmother… he started pulling my clothes off.

I’ll share more of Robyn’s story below. I wish I could adequately express how serious the fight before us is between now and November. This week we are hosting events to educate and mobilize pastors, especially about abortion initiatives. Help us win for life and DOUBLE YOUR GIFT NOW!

Robyn continued to share her story:

I was fighting him as he pulled my clothes off and held me down. He was tying my arms down with straps and, then every time he tied my legs down, I managed to pull my arms free. It went on and on like that – it was a physical fight.

In the end, she could fight no more. He overpowered me to the point that I could no longer move. I remember looking up at the light and saying to myself: Just don’t go to sleep.” Then he gave me a needle. 

The next thing I knew, I woke up 12 hours later and I was back home in New Jersey and was no longer pregnant. 

Sobbing, she adds: “I’ll never forget that day.”

Robyn was a victim of none other than Kermit Gosnell, the abortionist jailed for killing women and countless viable babies born alive.

This is the real face of abortion. It is about people murdering babies, even when their mother wants to keep the child. It is not about the PR spin of women making the decisions they want.  

Abortion should be unthinkable.

Help us expose this evil. The first step is to defeat the state abortion ballot initiatives that will tie the hands of the legislators and courts to protect women like Robyn and their preborn child. We have hired multiple staff members to help fight this initiative that will unleash unmitigated harm.

Amendment 4 in Florida will allow abortion up to birth, abolish parental consent, overturn all health and safety laws, and fund abortion.

You’ve heard this before: “If we don’t have abortion, women will be forced into ‘back-alley abortions.’”

However, some of these abortion initiatives will put those back-alley butchers in business. Florida’s Amendment 4, for example, will abolish ALL health and safety regulations, including the requirement to be a licensed medical doctor. Many of these ballot initiatives will create an environment with:

  • Zero medical supplies required.

  • Zero hygiene standards.

  • Zero disposal requirements.

  • Zero informed consent.

  • Zero safety standards.


If these ballot initiatives are passed, a back-alley abortion would be safer and more sanitary than what these abortion camps will morph into.

Look no further than inside Kermit Gosnell’s “House of Horrors.”

When agents showed up a dozen years after Robyn did, they found flea-infested cats that were defecating and peeing on the floor, their waste mixed with the blood of women and children bleeding out. They found women perched on recliners where they were heavily sedated and semiconscious, writhing in pain on blankets with old blood stains.

The staff did not have a licensed nurse but rather a 15-year-old girl and a woman who dropped out of sixth grade, both working in the role of anesthesiologist by giving a cocktail of cheap drugs that often were expired.

The emergency exit was padlocked with broken equipment piled up in front making it impassable —even after this fire hazard contributed to the death of one woman. She was overdosed on a cheap sedative, and there was no working defibrillator that could save her life. The feds discovered feet from 47 children in jars stacked around the “clinic,” and the cracked “operating tables” were impossible to sanitize.

It would be hard to find a back alley worse than that! If these initiatives pass, this “House of Horrors” will spread everywhere.

If we lose this battle at the state level, children will die in the most horrific ways possible. Mothers will be stripped of their wanted children. And their murderers will enrich themselves off of their tiny livers, hearts, and scalps. Give your best possible gift today to impact the future of our nation.

Liberty Counsel Action is fighting this death-dealing madness. We will NEVER give up. Meanwhile, we are stretched thin. Help today to provide the resources we need to fight and win these key battles. Please, support our ministry to defend LIFE and LIBERTY.
