I was almost killed by "right to life" obstetricians when the fetus I was carrying died but didn't abort. The doctors refused to abort the dead fetus until my blood stopped clotting. The doctors finally took action when they got scared I would bleed out on their operating table. I used to believe doctors put their patients first. Now I know their reputations come first, and if the law forces them to choose between their reputations and the life of a prospective mother, the mother is at risk.

[@nick5062]

Primarily old, white men want to exert control over women and don't care about the consequences to women and children (up to and including death). Those people who truly hold religious beliefs about abortion (that are counter to Biblical teachings) have decided that they have the right to control decisions made by people who believe differently (which is counter to our Constitution).

All this evil nonsense has had a small silver lining for me and my state. My niece was living in Louisiana and she and her husband were wanting to start a family. She is an English teacher with a PhD in English Literature, and he is an electrical engineer - both professions we need more of. Steph was already getting sick of "anti-woke" restrictions on her teaching, and when they also got an abortion ban, they decided to call uncle Pat in Michigan and see if they could move in with me for a bit while they found jobs and a home here. As the last of my family still here, I loved the idea, and luckily they both found jobs in the small city where I live. I love having them here, and look forward to a grandniece or nephew before too long. Louisiana's loss is our gain.

Shouldn’t it concern you that these children are breathing, fighting for life, and are indeed babies? Nothing changed between the moments the children were living and growing inside the womb and then continuing life outside other than the choice to step in and brutally stop that natural process. Even Waltz, medical professionals, and others had to agree that after pre-maturely forcing those babies out they were alive, a child, and should have the right to life saving measures at the time of the pregnancy term. So then the question is: Should we put a limit on when an abortion shouldn’t be available? Currently Waltz has signed a bill saying there are no limits and if a woman suddenly changes her mind for any reason, at any time, even during the last term, she has the right to terminate.
