She was perfectly in the clear to get an abortion. She ignored medical advice twice. So yeah, there's more to this than the headline.
OP didn't say charging her with a crime was right. OP said nothing like that. OP even went out of his way (2nd paragraph for those with low reading comprehension) to state that he wasn't making any sort of judgement. Merely that this didn't seem the result of abortion restrictions and it's an odd case with some unanswered questions.
Honestly though, it's all OP's fault for reading the article and not reacting emotionally. Do better OP!
You're also fucking scum for victimizing a woman for choosing what to do with her own body, then. Abortions are trauma. Having a baby is trauma. The entire sutuation is trauma, and it boils down to Her body, her choice. Fuck off.
She ignored medical advice. Walked away. TWICE. Were you OK with anti-vaxxers doing that because it was "their body their choice"?
This woman was clearly traumatized by the whole thing, and acted foolishly because of said trauma. Nothing to condemn her for. And no one has.
Again, this situation doesn't seem to have anything to do with abortion laws. But you insist OP and I are condemning her to score your point.
At some point do you say, "Sorry. I was emotional on this thing and misunderstood."? Or you want to double-down and argue some more when we both fucking agree?
I think we do still disagree if you're still insisting she should have been forced tk have an abortion. It was her choice. The fuck don't you people understand about that?
And comparing a woman's choice to have an abortion vs getting a vaccine is an incredibly flawed argument. Babies aren't contagious. And no, I'd never hold someone down and force a vaccine. You seem to think someone should have forced this woman to terminate the baby.
You are still vilifying her for making her own personal choice. Shame on you. Doesn't matter if it was against medical advice or not.
