Dr. Rebecca Gomperts, and her organization, Women on Waves, sail a ship around the world to countries where abortion is illegal.  Using a hotline for communication, the activists pick up women at the port and transport them twelve miles offshore, just outside of domestic waters, where doctors on board can administer safe and legal medical abortions at sea.  Their actions shock the church, infuriate the government, exhilarate the media, and provoke mass controversy and debate among the voting population, but they break no law.

They might, they hope, instead serve to save lives.

THIS IS THE COOLEST ACTIVISM EVER.

PLEASE COME TO IRELAND. I wonder if these are the same people that did it here before.

This is so fucking awesome.

Love,

Rabble
