A healthcare office that provided abortions in Kalispell, Montana, has been forced to close their place after it was effectively destroyed by a vandal. All families Healthcare is one of the four facilities that provided abortion in the state. It's closure means people in that area have to travel more than two hours to Midsole for an abortion. The owner Susan Cahill said the vandal had stabbed holes into walls, smashes medical equipment and computers, broke every glass object, destroyed the plumbing and heating systems, ripped plants up from their roots, and smashed framed photos of her family members before stabbing holes in their faces. She also said abortions make up only 19 percent of the services she provided at her family practice. A suspect has been arrested and charged with felony burglary. The suspect is a 24-year-old man whose mother is on the board of an anti-choice crisis pregnancy center. I think this is so wrong for someone to do. I understand they may be against abortions, but they had no right to destroy the healthcare office. Everyone has a their own opinion on things and it is not okay to damage something just because it is something you are against. Some people are so careless now a days General Motors is facing new accusations over fatal crashes involving defective vehicles. A new review of a crags data has found more than 300 people died after air bags failed to deploy in two of the vehicle models GM recalled last month. In total, about 1.5 million cars were recalled due to an ignition flaw that shut down engines and disabled air bags while cars were moving. GM previously acknowledge the defect was tied to 13 deaths. This is very dangerous and the cars should be checked several times before they are sent our to car shops. They should also put a hold on the GM cars so they can check them again before anyone else buys one and gets hurt.
