LAT glorifies abortionist-in-training

On the front page today, the LAT describes a fourth-year medical student who plans to do abortions after completing her training. Her motivation: She wants to abort babies out of spite. She says it's like your brother telling you that you can't do something. It makes you want to do it all the more, she says. Besides, abortionist are in short supply. Business should be good, the LAT suggests.

The LAT story begins with the abortionist-in-training helping to deliver a premature baby and asking herself whether she could have aborted that baby. She decides she could have. Apparently, killing an innocent human being didn't concern her.
