Women Having To Flee States With Insane Restrictions on Abortions

Back To Reality
The young woman’s waters broke when she was 19 weeks pregnant. The doctors told her the baby stood no chance of surviving, but that if the pregnancy continued the woman risked an infection, which might lead to sepsis and kill her. They could not perform an abortion, though. Months earlier Texas, where she lived, had passed a law banning terminations after detection of a fetal heartbeat unless there was danger “of death or a serious risk of substantial impairment of a major bodily function”. This wording worried the doctors: if they did an abortion while she still appeared healthy and the baby had a heartbeat, they could be prosecuted. They suggested she fly to Colorado instead.

We will already have the worst maternal mortality rate in the industrial world. Where a typical country has three mortality out of 100,000 live births, while the USA has a mortality rate of 17 (more than five times higher). States like Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi and Tennessee, are becoming illegal, already had mortality rates above 30. They will get much worse.

There are about 3.6 million births per year in the USA. If the mortality rate goes up by 10, there will be 3,600 more women that die. If you think abortion is murder, that might not be a lot of deaths. There might be about 600,000 abortions per year, and anti-abortion laws in some states might reduce the number of abortions by 10%. That would be 60,000 fetuses (or "unborn babies" as the Republicans call them). Maybe 3,600 women dying is worth saving 60,000...

But we should not lie. This is going to kill women.

Outlawing abortions in many states will make an already horrible maternal mortality rate much worse. Women will die. There is no getting around that.

The only defense I can think of is that fetuses will be saved. I really do not see a blob as cells to be more important than a living human being, but if you do, there is some defense of killing these women.

That being said, stop lying and saying this is not going to kill women. Women will die from this.

i don't think your data supports that conclusion.

Jewish law
The fetus is not viewed as separate from the parent’s body until birth begins and the first breath of
oxygen into the lungs allows the soul to enter the body.

Judaism explicitly state that abortion is not only permitted but is required should the pregnancy endanger the life or health
of the pregnant individual. Furthermore, “health” is commonly interpreted to encompass psychological health as well as physical health.

So now instead of choice we now have christofascism

yes,
but in science, life begins at conception.

that's biology not myth.

:truestory:
 
Fetus-worshipping misogynist theocrat Republicans are doing their best to establish Christian Taliban rule.

They should all be rounded up as enemies of our secular republic.
None should be spared.
We can now plainly see that genocide can be justified and, in some cases, may be necessary to preserve human decency.

Unborn children have died, by the millions, Walter.

"Flee."

Yes, you are an idiot.

How can anyone think that millions of children are being killed - and do nothing?

Something has been done.

President Trump was elected, nominated and confirmed three S.C. Justices and the killing of the unborn by crushing their heads has been slowed.
