Although I am a leftist, or perhaps precisely because I am, I suffer from attacks of embarrassment, and in cases like the present today, even hostility by some characters appearing under the banner of leftist parties at his gall unlimited.
the dictionary says is a shameless person who speaks or work shamelessly, without shame or human respect. While in Spain use the word to stay in the first sense, I would take it up in its fullest sense to address in a subtle and diplomatic opinion suggests I Daniel Ortega, President of Nicaragua. What I suggested at the time, after the total ban on abortion and what it suggests to me now after reading the Infome of Amnesty International.
That the abortion debate is not about to end, more than a discussion between those who think that women are subjects of rights and others not, I doubt anyone with half a brain and ask as those who are anti-abortion talk about the defense of life and it does not include women who already are, without doubt, life.
The new penal code approved in Nicaragua in 2008 introduced criminal penalties for health professionals that even women try to save his life, if it endangers the life of the fetus. Ie that establishing a hierarchical order , which by law the life of someone who was not born yet, takes precedence over a woman.
From my visit to Nicaragua data corroborate Amnesty International, if they have a minimum sensitivity , get ready to feel a sense midway between embarrassment and horror.
- 50% of cases of rape are under 18 years.
- 1.247% of girls were victims of rape or incest.
- 16% of them became pregnant.
- 87% of victims became pregnant because of rape or incest were girls between 10 and 14.
With such a framework for children, imagine in which seniors find the right in the XXI century government Daniel Ortega, I refuse to call Sandinista , repealing therapeutic abortion . The first data that chronicle the drama that has caused this law can be read in that report AI, and result in more deaths of mothers complications in pregnancy, an increase of 16% of deaths from unsafe abortions and the emergence of a phenomenon deeply troubling , suicide by poison in many teenage pregnancies.
As I spoke about it in due course on the subject, pointed out again that is understandable sometimes from the left can not move as fast it would be desirable, especially when there are no political or social majorities but from this point to reach the power to repeal laws like the right to therapeutic abortion approved in Nicaragua in 1879, and to say you're a shameless, you may fall short.
