"Take your kid with you" says the person who has never found themselves in such a situation. It's reactions like yours that confirm to us sane people that conservatives do not give a f*** about real people and real lives. Also no one believes you truly care about babies, either. |

Grow up, child, before trying to weigh in on that which you are ignorant about, though that won’t leave you much to talk about. Lots of states jail pregnant women, ostensibly because of DrUgS, but they end up causing more complications. https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2022/09/alabama-jail-pregnant-woman-fetus-marijuana.html Etowah County struck again recently, only the woman in question wasn’t even pregnant: https://reason.com/2022/11/22/alabama-jails-woman-for-endangering-her-fetus-she-wasnt-pregnant/ I also seem to remember you forced birther fools absolutely sure that no ten year olds have ever needed abortion. I’d say you had egg on your faces, but you all hid pretty quickly after it was confirmed. |

Why can’t they? And they clearly have supportive friends and family, so they can’t find someone to watch their child? I’ve had to cart three children everywhere because my leftist husband wants to ride his bike all the time, and take ski vacations with friends. Ever have to cart three little kids and two dogs in two feet of snow to hotels due to a multi-day power outage? I have. Sucks but I did it. |

So you’re saying that this woman could have left, but didn’t due to fear? I agree. She wasn’t doing drugs; she would be seeking a legal abortion in a state where it’s legal. Please show me the part of the law that states specifically that this isn’t allowed and that she would be arrested and jailed? You would have done so already if it exists. |

Not a huge fan of the later writing in that show because the show never deals with the evil women who supported the conservative establishment, and just decides to make them "feminist" after they suddenly getting the brutal slap of sexism, which they always thought was just for the Handmaids. And the show NEVER holds the evil wives accountable for destroying a free society and enslaving fertile women (and fully supporting their rapes). That hypocrisy and fake sisterhood turned me off of the show. I never knew then how accurately it would one day describe Republican women, who are not my sisters and never will be. I don't even see them as real women anymore...they're enablers of rape and torture, the enslavers of wombs, and they deserve to burn in their religious Hell. They deserve to suffer the consequences of their actions. 100%. |

Can you explain to me, if you are anti abortion, why are you OK with the idea that this woman can still pack her husband and 4 year old up in a car and leave the state for an abortion? I don't get the logic of why an abortion is OK in one situation and not another. |

And what this probably means, for the parents who watched their son die in pain, is that they will be traumatized, have an avalanche of hospital bills, and no baby to show for it. Will their marriage survive, and if it does, will they even want to try again for another baby? Republican Christian fascists haven't thought this through. |

Maybe you should send your request to know why this family failed to do what you would have done. Make your question very pointed and rub it in that you are clearly superior to them. No matter they are grieving, just twist that knife in a little farther. After all, you are superior in every way and there can be no reason they failed to live up to your standard other than they are clearly inferior and incompetent. No reason at all. |

Where could she go to get a 24 week pregnancy induced to deliver? Do you know? Do you know how easy it is to go to a different ob-gyn at that stage and say, hey, induce me, the baby is doomed? What is your own personal experience with being induced by an out-of-state doctor at that stage to terminate a pregnancy? Abortions laws and anti-abortion whackos across the country have reduced the number of clinics that take patients entering the third trimester. Don't believe me? Go do some of your own research and report back to us. Her own Florida doctors were sure as hell not going to advise her on where to go make an appointment to get the health care she needed because they wouldn't want to be sued for aiding in an abortion. So where do you think someone who is not a medical professional but needs medical counseling should go to get counseling on something as significant for her health as this? Also get this: Florida's law redefines "gestation" from "between fertilization and birth" to "as calculated from the first day of the pregnant woman's last menstrual period." So if you are like many women and have irregular periods, you could be defined as being 3 months pregnant or more just because you hadn't had a period in that long. Even if your pregnancy is only a week old. That's what happens when men, especially who are not doctors, are legislating about women's health. It's stupid but that represents today's GOP's level of intelligence. |

The cruelty is the point. The pointless stupidity is part of the cruelty. The ignorance with power is part of the cruelty. The rubbing women’s noses in it is part of the cruelty. And the PP who is for sure 100% smarter and superior to this grieving family reads like a right winger (who pretends she’s married to a liberal but is undoubtedly married to a gobsmackingly stupid right winger just like her) angry that the consequences of her heinous politics are being put in her face and she does not like the consequences one little bit. She just thought promiscuous liberal 20 somethings were going to catch it here, not good people trying to have a family. Wake up, forced birther. You’re in the soup, too. A lesson you should have learned years ago: women aren’t people in the GOP. |

I’m not anti-abortion. I’m simply saying she had choices she didn’t exercise. |

Colorado, California. There’s two. New York and New Jersey as well. What about MD? |

He’s left of left. Don’t assume. And I’m personally more reasonable about abortion. And am not Christian to boot. I just don’t like lies and hyperbole. |

If you aren’t getting a referral for late stage abortion, and we have to assume this family wasn’t given one, it is not simple at all to get the procedure.
It’s also possible this family didn’t comprehend what this delivery was going to be like. I don’t think many people have any idea how awful this would be. It’s good they are coming forward to shed light on the consequences of these laws. It has made me understand that there should be no limits set on abortion. It’s healthcare. |
