An ectopic pregnancy is a murder weapon

[jmowreader]

The Hard Right loves to call abortion murder. Several candidates for public office have recently stated their desire to ban abortion in all cases, even if the mother's life is at risk.

A woman who suffers an ectopic pregnancy that doesn't get treated IS GOING TO DIE. No ifs, ands or buts. It's either the non-viable embryo or the woman carrying it.

1. Let's see what to do, kill a living breathing woman, or get rid of a clump of cells....

2. Human sacrifice

They can’t wait.

3. Sex is for women.

4. I disagree, it isn't either or

The embryo can't survive. The woman can IF she gets treated. The embryo is gone no matter what.

5. That's what

I don’t get. They don’t understand without treatment the woman dies as well as embryo. Embryo isn’t viable either way. They really do hate women.

6. They can't accept that an ectopic pregnancy is what it is, because...

...the very existence of the phenomenon is a perfect refutation of a big chunk of their arguments on abortion. And you can't learn what you don't want to know. So they will continue to make fools of themselves on this point, and they will continue to deny that they are making fools of themselves, even as every doctor in the world and everyone else who knows anything about biology continues to point at them and call them fools.

7. I almost lost my wife to one.

She called me saying she did not feel good and asked me to come home to take care of our daughter. I got home and my wife was pale gray, clammy to the touch, lethargic. I asked a neighbor to watch our daughter and brought my wife to the ER. Her BP was 79/46. They asked her if she was pregnant and she answered she did not think so. A quick test confirmed she was and then quickly they were able to diagnose what was going on. The surgery was quick but because of blood loss and the incision it was a couple weeks before she was feeling better and really a couple months to fully regain her old self. It was scared, life threatening, she could have had a stroke, infection a host of issues. The tube was blown but we were fortunately able to have another child a couple years later.

These fucking people are monsters. There is no chance of life of child in an ectopic but these clowns are willing to let a woman, mother, my wife and partner in life die over a non viable pregnancy. WTF is wrong with them.

9. It makes no sense at all, does it.

No chance at ALL for the embryo - zero, zilch, nada, none. Why is that so hard for these idiots to understand?

I am so glad your wife survived.

12. Scariest night of my life.

I was 28, my wife 25 we had a 2 year old and I was worried I would lose her. Thankfully, we are still happily married and have two grown children.

10. One of the RW clowns said it could be transplanted into the uterus.

One of the RW clowns said it could be transplanted into the uterus.

They'll tell any lie to look pro-life.

They don't give a damn about life.

It's a matter of control.
