millions of dollars from them to get their ads placed first when someone searches on pregnancy or abortion. She should sue Google as well for steering her to unqualified medical centers.

None of these pregnancy centers are staffed by actual doctors. They have learned how to do ultrasounds but not necessarily to interpret them correctly. They are mostly funded by the Christian right and have one purpose: to mislead women and prevent them from having an abortion.

Surely there are laws against the fraud of claiming to offer abortion when you do not. If not, we need to be passing laws regulating what these clinics can and cannot do. It is not free speech to advertise fraudulent medical treatments. These clinics should be forced to become staffed with certified medical practitioners or prevented from operating. The woman in this case is lucky she didn’t die. Sue the hell out of them.
