Except it’ll cost at least $650+ for an abortion, not to mention the lack of available clinics, and the 48 hour wait time that SheeshTheseNames provided.

The jerk store called and they’re running out of you.

If one is “employed at Amazon” in Tennessee it means you work at a fulfillment center for minimum wage for a third party employment agency that protects Amazon from labor violation penalties. There have been numerous lawsuits about the labor exploitation that goes on in Amazon centers. Employees are frequently…

You are more concerned about the baby than the woman who was so desperate to terminate a pregnancy that she was willing to put a sharp object inside her with no anesthesia and risk bleeding to death. It’s good to know your empathy is so limited that you have to parcel it out in dribs and drabs to those you determine…

You are exactly right. Abstinence only education leaves girls and women without a real knowledge of options for birth control. I know plenty of married women, or women in committed relationships who use birth control and some who have -gasp- had abortions.

For anyone who’s curious:

Thanks. TIL abortion is de fecto illegal in Tennessee.

There are also cases in Texas where women are trying to find alternatives to abortion that don’t involve the endless waiting periods and long travel times. Women who live close to the Mexico border are going there and getting pills to end their pregnancies.

Or even worse, restrict access to preventative birth control by slashing the coverage provision from the AHCA. Just was arguing with someone the other day who was griping about “being forced to pay for someone else’s sex life.” What they couldn’t quite grasp was the potential cost of the state picking up the tab for…

I’m an attorney in Alabama and if I could, I would represent this poor woman pro bono. My heart aches for her.

Jesus Christ. I have a friend who works at Amazon. He has no car and lives with his parents. Go fuck yourself.

The baby is disfigured...and would have most likely been quite damaged under any circumstances being born at 24 weeks. 24 weeks is not a magic viability number, no matter what religious zealots claim. And “viable” here means that the child will live by a herculean effort involving machines and drugs for the rest of…

Are you willfully obtuse or actually ignorant?

You really are stupid aren’t you. Your analogy is dumb as fuck because most of the time you wouldn’t go to jail for your accident. Also I’m a LIVING BREATHING WOMAN, not a fetus that couldn’t survive if there wasn’t a host & a shit load of medical intervention. And equating driving a car with BODILY AUTONOMY is such…

At the time she attempted this it absolutely was a fetus.

I’m going by your words dipshit. She didn’t do anything to her CHILD, she attempted to abort a fetus. Jesus Christ it isn’t difficult.

Really? You think a grown woman who would harm herself and risk her own life by jamming metal wiring inside herself has loads of options that she just can’t be bothered to use?

She didn’t intend to “disfigure” the baby. She intended to abort a foetus.

And while we’re at it, lets repeal the ACA which provides birth control to millions of women without co-pay. They should fucking pay for their sluttiness.

Pro-choice or pro-life, we can all agree that this is horrific. But by all means, let’s continue to restrict availability and access to safe and legal abortion, the vast majority of which will occur long before 24 weeks.
