The pain Mrs. Hapappanavar was experiencing was terrible, the Doctors explained to her that while she was sure to miscarry they could not perform a life saving abortion because the abortion law did not provide an exemption for a risk to the mothers life and it did not allow abortion at the stage of her pregnancy.
Three hours later Mrs. Halappanavar and her fetus were dead.
Is this what we want in the United States?
Something like 2/3 of the nation says no.
But the Republican party has a nasty habit of courting the extremist vote, so there ya go.
They cheated a loophole in the Constitution which did not require a presidential nominee to get a hearing and refused to even have a vote on Garland thus allowing them to stack the SCOTUS and presto, now we have a SCOTUS dancing to the extremist tune.
Today's America is what happens when good liberals do not get involved.
Wake up people. Don't be the frog getting boiled slowly. What right wing extremists are cooking up for America is extraordinarily untasty.
