Once again, Lancaster Newspapers, Inc. allows an employee to make light of rape and murder.

What's next? "Get" Smart doing ten minutes of jokes about cancer?

Been raped? Hit the road.
(Haha! Get it? Not only is rape funny in Get's tiny diseased mind, it can also be exploited for political purposes!)

Sound familiar, kiddies?

No, not that one.

“A Good Samaritan Hospital emergency room doctor refused to give a rape victim a morning-after pill because he said it was against his Mennonite religion,” read the story in Tuesday’s Patriot-News.

“Rebuffed by the doctor, the woman called her gynecologist, who wrote the prescription. Her local pharmacy told her it was out of the drug and referred her to a sister store in Reading.

“The former medical director of the hospital said he sees nothing strange about asking a woman from eastern Lebanon County to drive to Reading for a drug.’’

“People drive to Reading to buy jeans,” said Dr. Joe Kearns.

See? This is why I love our creeping moralism. Got raped? Need some jeans? What’s the difference?

Yes, my third-favorite bumpkin scribe of the totalitarian middle, Gil 'Get' Smart, is up to his same old tricks. Did you know, kiddies, that people who believe Jesus is God are Nazis who want to stop us from doin' fun things like fornicatin' and then killing our own kids? Golly! I wish our moral and intellectual superiors like Get would rise up and kill all them baby-savers and give us a guv'ment of justice, light, plenty, and fornicatin'. And plenty of fornicatin' at that! I'll bet ol' Get has got himself some funky fantasies he could indulge if his kind were in charge of the henhouse!

I mean, is it me, or is that comment the most monstrous thing imaginable?

Pain? This jackass talks about pain when the highest good in his bloody imagination is ripping a helpless baby to shreds so he doesn't have to support her!

Some context: The woman, according to the story, was in her front yard at 2 a.m. when a man pulled up, asking directions. He then allegedly punched her, knocked her out, and raped her — though, according to the story, he wore a condom. She told her mother the next day, then went to the hospital and asked for the morning-after pill, where the doctor said, in effect: Tough.

As you might imagine, the doctor framed it a little differently. His “dilemma” with “the whole rape issue,” he said, is this: “Which side are you more concerned with? Are you more concerned about the mother or the life that was possibly created?”

And it’s instructive to know that Pennsylvania law permits hospitals and physicians to deny certain treatments for religious reasons.

Thank God for that bit of sanity.

Then again, countered a sexual assault counselor interviewed by the Patriot-News, “no victim should have to run around town after an assault looking for emergency contraceptives.”

Which isn’t to say that pro-life extremists want people to run around town looking for emergency contraceptives; if they had their way there wouldn’t be any to be found anywhere, so there’d be no need to run around.

Just sit back, relax. So you’re pregnant by some rapist; so what? Yes, it’s unfortunate. Make the best of it.

Sure, that’s too glib. But is it really that far off?

Those who would back the doctor in this instance believe some things are more important than rape; if a rape results in a fertilized cell, that takes precedence — and you’ll just have to deal with it for the next nine months.

Oh, there’ll be services available to help you through it. Kind folks will do what they can to make you more comfortable, emotionally and physically. But bottom line, that guy who slugged you, knocked you out, maybe worse? You’re having his kid.

And here, I think, is where the pro-life movement hits the wall.

Most people are likely to support common-sense restrictions on abortion — the bill passed by the U.S. Senate last week that would make it a crime to take a pregnant minor across state lines for an abortion being a case in point.

But the movement is not satisfied with common-sense restrictions, seeing them as mere steps on the path to complete criminalization of the procedure even when the “child” is but a blastocyst not yet attached to the uterine wall. And if you believe that, then a doctor who tells a woman who has been attacked that she’s either just going to have to deal with it or hit the road to find her emergency contraception is making the right call.

Whereas to the rest of us, it’s just cold and crass.

That’s not to say that doctors should be forced to dispense medication that violates their religious beliefs. But the medical facility should have someone else available to do so.

Fair and balanced, eh? The law should also mandate that at least one cannibal doctor be on duty at all times so those dead babies don't go to waste.

For it’s one thing for a doctor to refuse to take a life.

HOLY CRAP!!!!! "TAKE A LIFE"????

Must be a typo.

It’s quite another to tell a woman who has been raped to take a hike.

Once again, I must point out Comrade "Not Quite Half" Smart's insincerity. He does not care about rape victims in the least. If he did, he would use his weekly column to demand more police on the street, special crime units dedicated to solving sex crimes, tougher sentences for rapists and other sexual criminals, and the removal of squishy-soft leftist judges who let perverts off with only a warning.

But most of all, if this cretinous clown gave a damn about women (and children) he would spend his time advocating the return of chivalry and gentlemanly behavior.

But no. Gil "Get" Smart is not a real man. He is pathetic left-fascist totalitarian of the middle, pushing child murder, buggery, and cowardice in the face of our enemies as the answers to all our problems.

May God have mercy on his soul. He's going to need it. (That'll piss off ol' Get more than anything!)
