Nobody is "stealing" babies. Good God. You people are sick.

What’s your explanation for why “you people” let mothers die in childbirth, then?

Nobody "lets" mothers die in childbirth. Who are you to ask such a question?!
There are risks with ANY medical procedure. Childbirth is one of those. Especially when the mother has underlying medical conditions, is obese, or has ignored prenatal care check ups.
It is tragic when a woman dies during childbirth, or shortly thereafter. A baby is left without a mother and if she is married, a spouse without a partner. And, if she has any other children they are without a mother as well.
Nobody "lets" it happen.
And, despite the risks, millions of women give birth every year. And will continue to do so. The alternative is not having children at all. Which would mean the end of the human race.
Is this what you want?[b]

That’s for saying the quiet part out loud. Gotta keep up the domestic supply of infants.

Since you’re wondering, I 100% support every single person choosing to be childfree, and, if such people become pregnant, support their decision to get an abortion to stay childfree.

Super. Stay childless.
I, and millions of other women will choose not to abide by your desire.

DP - fine that should be your choices -
And women who wish to remain child free should be afforded that choice without having to join a convent …

FU. I had a dear friend die in childbirth. Only 28. Was not obese. Did not miss any prenatal checkups. Had no underlying health risks.

Any process that could kill you should not be forced on you. Yes women can voluntarily agree to undergo it. But the state has no right to force you to take it on.

Sorry your friend died. Was pregnancy forced on her?
If you don't want to give birth, don't get pregnant.
See .... simple.

Yes.

Fine. Don't have kids. Sounds like you are not cut out for motherhood.
But, millions of women will continue to give birth. Nothing you can do to stop that.

Abortion, for those who want it, stops it effectively.

Why shouldn’t people stop having babies? Why do you think people should be forced to have babies?

You would love to see an end to mankind, it seems.
Fine. Don't have kids. But, don't expect others to live by your standards.

I don’t care if you have zero kids or ten kids. I do care if you seek to impose your choices on others.

Nope, we have safe medical procedures to terminate pregnancy. Just like we have safe medical procedures to treat instances of cancer, appendicitis or a torn meniscus.

If it’s so simple why do so many unwanted pregnancies happen?

And many women have wanted pregnancies that go in the wrong direction so they need to terminate.

Abortion is an option that should always be legal and accessible because pregnancy is never simple.

A citizen of a democracy is who I am to ask such a question.

Refusing to expand Medicaid to poor mothers is letting mothers die.

Telling mothers they can’t access healthcare for life threatening doomed pregnancies until their fevers reach 102 or they bring baggies of their foul smelling pus to the ER to beg for medical care is letting mothers die.

Insisting that women not have access to sexual education so they have no decent chance of avoiding a pregnancy that could kill them is letting mothers die.

And who is doing this? Not California with the lowest maternal mortality in the country. Not New York. Louisiana. Georgia. Indiana. All “pro-life” states. States so pro-life they will let you die.

Here is the first line of the article, which is behind a paywall.

"Maternal deaths surged to the highest rate in nearly 60 years, data showed, exacerbating a years long trend that has made the U.S. the most dangerous place among high-income countries to give birth."

They won’t snd don’t care. The article specifically states that Black women are the most affected. When was the last time conservatives cared about Black women? Now if the most affected were young, white women there might be concern from that group. Sigh.

This! Remember when COVID first hit and we came together as a country for the first few weeks. Then stories came out how COVID was hitting cities and killing more Black and brown folks and right wing took that and ran with the narrative COVID wasn’t bad.

Nested PP, I’m so very sorry. At 28 that must have been a painful shock to all her friends and family.
