A case like this was exactly what turned public opinion in Ireland and led to them legalizing abortion.

She was black, so no one cares.
There have been many women who died or were maimed by preventable miscarriages. White women even.
These men dont give a shit, the woman is disposable to them
It’s funny because in a civilized country it could happen.
Many cases like this in Poland didn't change anything. (to be precise, they did help change the government but abortion law didn't change and will not change anytime soon)
But let’s not forget the only important part: the child wasn’t murdered by a doctor. It died when its mother died of entirely preventable causes.
That’s the only thing that matters, because my fucked up religion told me so.
I’m an intelligent, rational human being who bases their entire life and modern choices on an ancient text, which I believe was written by a divine source I am incapable of proving exists.
FUCK RELIGION AND RELIGIOUS PEOPLE. YOU’RE TRASH HOLDING CIVILIZATION BACK.
I'm not religious but I was raised going to church. Not once does the Bible say anything about preserving the life of the unborn. In fact the old testament provides direction on performing abortion. Also, let's not pretend that the Hebrew God of the Bible had any qualms about killing infants and children. Passover is literally remembering that time God killed all the first born in Egypt for the Pharaoh's transgressions. These religious whack jobs don't even know their own religion.
Preach, brother.
Pregnancy is dangerous.. If I was a pregnant woman, I wouldn’t even travel through these states. They will literally let you die.
Had friends who recently had a kid, during the pregnancy they had a list of states they wouldn't travel to for this specific reason.
People seem to forget that abortions are part of Healthcare. Making them illegal means youre preventing people from being treated properly.
This is what Texas wanted
My partner and I knew that if we wanted to have children, Texas wasn't the state we would build our future in. We left three years ago. Aside from the glorious sunsets we don't miss much else about it.
I love the south/southwest. Just get rid of the people. 😅
So much life.
Seems like she did not get sick, but suffered from a pregnancy complication which was lethal. I.e. wasn't weakened by the pregnancy and killed by a secondary threat such as COVID, but died from the pregnancy complication itself.
