It is also despite the last abortion bill, upon which this present one is based, being rejected as being 'too extreme.' Queenslanders can never say that didn't realise what this law meant. Those who support abortion know that abortionists admit to performing abortions on women who are being coerced. They know that now abortion will be legal through all nine months of pregnancy. They also have been told in no uncertain terms that women and men suffer after abortion - a fact that MPs during the debate denied. And they know that there is a credible concern that exclusion-zones are unconstitutional. While the US seems to be on the way to tightening up abortion law, Australia is doing exactly the opposite: making abortion even more freely available than it is now, destroying free speech by increasing the number of exclusion-zones and desensitising the public to the horror of baby-killing. Here are some quotes from the abortion lobby:
Daile Kelleher from Children By Choice tells @abcbrisbane the abortion bill passed in QLD will have "better health outcomes" for women in QLD & the matter should "never" have been treated as a criminal issue #qldpol #abortiondebateQLD

And here are some comments from the pro-life MPs:
Katter: why do we spend so much time in the house trying to preserve life, but now we're trying to make it easier to terminate life #abortiondebateQLD #qldpol

James Lister LNP MP for Southern Downs: "I draw the House's attention to the lamentable utterances by members of the Health Committee which betray a lack of impartiality."#qldpol #abortiondebateQLD

The last word can go to this faithful advocate for life:
To the aborted generations, I say the following: as a resident of Qld, I am sorry. On behalf of those who fought this abortion bill, I am sorry. I offer you this apology without qualification. #qldpol #abortiondebateqld pic.twitter.com/bMcIJBs37b
