1. Mary walks into Planned Parenthood on May 1 at 6 weeks from conception because she has her rapist's bun in the oven. Anti-Abortion Joseph (AAJ) meets her there, in the vestibule where no one else can hear.
"Hi! Whatcha here for?"
'I was raped. I got pregnant. I don't want to have to deal with my rapist for the next 18 years, so I'm going to get an abortion."
"When did you get raped?"
"Six weeks ago, not that it's any of your business."
"How would you like me to pay all your medical bills and adopt your child?"
"Yes! That would be very nice, thank you."
"That's good. Come by my attorney's office Thursday after next, and we'll hash out a contract."
2. Mary walks into AAJ's lawyer's office at 8 weeks. "Joseph's lawyer is out of town right now. He'll be back in two weeks."
3. Mary walks into AAJ's lawyer's office at 10 weeks. "Joseph will be out of town for the next month. He says don't do anything until he gets back."
4. Mary is now at Week 14, and goes back to the lawyer. "Oh, sorry...Joseph's lawyer is moving to a different practice. He'll be up and running at (gives address of law firm 100 miles away) in six weeks. Joseph says you can only deal with his personal lawyer."
(Mary keeps getting the runaround until she's at 29 weeks - too late to get an abortion in many states.) Finally she drags herself into the lawyer's new office and is met by Joseph, three lawyers and two cops.
Joseph says, "Why the hell are you harassing me? I don't know you. I've never seen you before."
Mary: "But you met me in the vestibule of Planned Parenthood and said you'd adopt my child if I didn't get an abortion."
Joseph: "Now I know you're lying. Everyone knows I would never go within a mile of a baby murdering butcher shop. If you don't get the hell away from me right now I'll have you arrested for stalking me and sue you for defamation."
