42. This is Murder
Fri Nov 1, 2024, 04:40 PM
Nov 2024

Texas is conflating a miscarriage with abortion. The fetus is or will soon be dead during a miscarriage. Do they think God will somehow perform a miracle and save it? These people don’t have the faintest understanding of female anatomy and gestation.

It is completely inexplicable to me how doctors are allowing patients to needlessly die. I’m astounded that there don’t seem to be organized lawsuits against this. I can’t imagine the horror that this girl’s mother must have experienced being forced to watch her daughter die for no reason - even if she is part of the problem. This is barbaric.
