Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. (If you're only using an excerpt from an article that's otherwise not about LAMF, you can use the quote in the title.) Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.

MODERATORS
“It was absolute fearmongering at its worst. There will be some comments like, ‘Well, thank God we have abortion services,’ even though what I went through wasn’t an abortion.'"
'My abortion is different and special'
No abortion is moral unless they require it.
I'm sure you know this, but for anyone thinking this is an exaggeration, Joyce Arthur gathered stories of them telling providers just that almost 30 years ago in the article '“The Only Moral Abortion is My Abortion”' from doctors in the US and a couple other countries, including picketers that come back the day after their abortion to picket the clinic.
It's in rare cases like this that I wish a doctor could call a patient out on their shit publicly, but I understand that HIPPA privacy is much more important than calling out these fakers
Oh sorry if my post wasn’t clear, this article is exactly what I was referring to. Every woman should have the right to choose what happens to their own bodies.

Downside: She learned nothing.
Upside: She failed to reproduce.
You came in that thing? You're braver than I thought.
Fucking gutter scum.
The sooner we rid ourselves of the conservative/regressive cancer killing our society, the sooner our quality of life improves.
Republican: Starts a fire
Republican: sticks their hand in the fire and burns themselves
Republican: in their panic, they set their entire house on fire
Republican: "THE EVIL GODLESS DEMOCRATS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL THIS, GOD DAMN THOSE WOKE LIBERAL DEVILS!"

She should be happy she lived. Some don't.
I'm very much unhappy she lived.
Oh no, a few hours delay while they verified that they weren't going to break Florida's draconian laws and face criminal prosecution. You should celebrate, the law is working as designed!
"what I went through wasn't an abortion."
Wooooow. The cognitive dissonance is strong with this one.
it couldn't have been an abortion, there was no satanic priest in a hooded black robe, goat skull headdress, and ritual dagger

Jesus Christ, what a stupid bitch.
"Misleading messaging" i.e. saying that the law prevents things like this instead of just straight-up shooting a toddler in the face, which is what most Republicans seem to think abortion is. Rot, bitch.
The idiots thought that 6 weeks is 6 weeks from the intercourse, so "plenty of time to discover it".
Instead it's 6 weeks from the last period, meaning in most cases, unless you were actively trying to get pregnant, when you discover that you're pregnant the 6 weeks are already passed or almost passed. You can't even know that the pregnancy is ectopic before 8 weeks, because at 6 weeks the embryo is so small that you can't see it with the ultrasound.
And in this case, an ectopic pregnancy, the embryo is planted in the wrong position, so there are only two outcomes:
- Surgical removal before the 8 week (technically a forbidden abortion)
- Do as God intended and do nothing (at the 10th week the embryo dies because can't grow and after weeks of extreme pain the mother dies of hemorrhaging and sepsis)
So, maybe if the mother at the 5th week and half was experiencing some weird pain in the belly, and had a good insurance that covered a transvaginal ultrasound, they could discover the problem and schedule the abortion before the deadline.
If the mother didn't have a good insurance, just thought "well maybe my belly pain it's just a temporary problem because I'm a week late with my period", when the doctors discover the problem they will say "sorry we discovered the problem 3 days too late according to the arbitrary deadline that the legislators decided, you have two painful weeks left and then you'll die"

Another great example of why people who show no capacity for empathy should be shunned from society until they change. She cries about her own abortion, but how many women have already died before she decided to shed a tear for herself?

People who don't understand the inplications of their own actions and then blame others for their ignorance are getting tiring.
Its the Democrats' fault for not warning us of the consequences of our own actions well enough.

In a follow-up interview with Palmeri, Cammack said her experience brought her "down a path of understanding...
Yep. Sounds legit.

Fuck that stupid cunt.
Actually, don't do that, she obviously doesn't understand how anything works.
Cammack blamed those delays not on the law itself but on what she described as …..
So she didn’t learn anything either

Sometimes I think being too stupid should be punishable by law.
While I get the sentiment, mental retardation was targeted by the Nazis. Given the current situation and the government's propensity for Nazism, I am disinclined to support that sentiment.
Being a Nazi should be punishable by law.
Stupid is curable, these dumbfucks are willfully stupid, those with intellectual disabilities are unfortunately lacking that option quite often.
even though what I went through wasn’t an abortion
It definitely was. Even the Catholics will agree it was an abortion. So now both sides hate you.
