Was this the family they profiled several weeks ago?
So messed up |
It's a reference to The Handmaid's Tale. |
Nope. This is another family. This is probably happening dozens of times every week across this country. Very few want their names in the media. |
Because she could have left to get the abortion. Because people raised money for the family to do so. Because they chose not to. |
That wasn’t in this article. |
It was in previous articles. Sorry your sources are poor reporters of the truth |
1. The couple worried they could be arrested if they sought an out of state abortion and voiced concern about ensuring they could be there for their existing child 2. How sad of a world we are in that a woman would have to travel out of state for ethically appropriate healthcare |
Don’t be a douche. If you’re citing something that’s not in the linked article, link. |
+1 It also puts the healthcare of women in the remaining free states at risk. There aren’t that many obstetricians to go around. |
Anyone traveling to a state where abortion is still legal needs to show their voting record. If they voted GOP, nope, no taking services. You bought the ticket, you take the ride. |
On the other hand, if this woman’s family starts voting for pro life candidates, that could be a lot of people changing sides. Milo’s parents, her parents, her 6 siblings, their spouses. That’s almost 20 people without getting into extended family, church, or friends. This is how change happens. Unfortunately because of republicans, a lot of babies are going to have to die, families will go into debt to pay for hospital bills that shouldn’t have been needed, some women will lose their fertility and lives along the way, and it’s going to break families apart with the stress of dying children, debt, and grief. But they will have won for a little while. |
This is how the change happened in the first place. One of the SCOTUS justices who voted for Roe - a conservative Nixon appointee - had a clerk who died from an illegal abortion. |
It may cause some people to change sides, but I doubt it. I have many prolifers in my own family who would stare down this kind of suffering, explain it away as God’s plan and good for them leaving open the possibility for a miracle, and then go right on back to the same crap way of voting. They don’t want to hear that they forced avoidable suffering on their loved ones. They don’t want to take accountability for they’ve done and what they supported. They are all just “innocent Germans” who only cared about the economy. |
Because he is the father. The guy who created the life that suffered until it died, because politicians and religious SC justices are deciding medical care based on "faith" and not doctors. |
It is. End of story. If it were me I would never want to get pregnant again. Keep sharing these stories when you see them. |
