This headline pissed me off before I realized it was abortion-ban related. Now I’m fucking livid.

This is worse than 'Thoughts and Prayers'.
A lot of elected officials - and their supporters - are accessories to the killing .
This is more like armed police waiting around outside a crime scene and actively preventing any attemp . . .
Everything is bigger in Texas...
What the actual fuck. This is horrendous.
Pro-life crowd, I thought you were supposed to keep life, not end it.
Now there's a man who's a widow, and a child without a mother, and a lady who died for literally nothing.
Fuckin' hell.
That's bad.
Republican ideas made into law killed her.
It's 2024. What the fuck america
Don’t blame America for this. Most of us want legal, safe abortion laws. It’s a disgruntled minority of hyper-religious whack jobs that have been handed outrageous power in our top court by a narcissistic sociopath that are to blame.
Evangelicals Christians = American Taliban.
“Those damn immigrants taking all our healthcare.”
I see stories like this a lot and can't believe it. My wife was in a similar situation and had to get an emergency dnc, and still came close to dying from sepsis.
The doctors were so on it, we waited in the ER for a while because they were packed but as soon as they took her blood and realized what was going on she was in surgery within the hour.
Our son want even 2 at the time. If we were 30 minutes west she would've died. It's absolutely fucking wild.
How could anyone think this is right?
Pro lifers kill again. They rate the right to live of potential life higher than someone who has been here for 28 years. Someone who left a husband and a child behind. I have to accept I hate pro lifers for the harm they cause. There is no justice in this world as long as these inhuman and barbaric laws are killing people. Real people, not potential people.
Vote Kamala Harris and your sisters, wives and daughters might stop dying for lack of health care when pregnant. Allow Trump to regain power and it will get much, much worse for the women you care about.

A texas woman didn't die, a texas woman was murdered by the state's ignorant, bigoted, christo-fascist policy - abbott, patrick, cruz, gohmert, that cock eyed AG and the rest of them along with every complicit texas republican voter... they all have blood on their cowardly hands.
And if she didn't get murdered, she could have been charged for murder for having a miscarriage.

we can't tolerate this. these supposed "pro-life" policies are killing, literally murdering women.
Pro-lifers doing a fantastic job of killing people. Truly horrific.
This avoidable and preventable death brought to you by "pro life" partisans.
Anti-choice is gaining more traction and is more accurate. Anti-choice or pro-death is more appropriate and logically consistent
there's another thread about outsiders' criticisms of lemmy, and one of the comments mentioned that it's "unwelcoming to right wing viewpoints"
I WONDER FUCKING WHY
let's keep it that way, the right-wing should be unwelcome everywhere
Reality has a left-wing bias
Ok I'm a lefty but I've always hated this statement. It is the launching point of a great deal of ignorance and idiocy, kind of like some religious dogma.

Someone should go to prison for life over this. Jesus Christmas.
If you can't see how wrong this is, you are a broken person.
a lot of people should. this is a concerted and deliberate effort. it should start with 6 justices.
However it will start with the doctors. The lowest hanging fruit.
Many noted a striking similarity to the case of Savita Halappavanar, a 31-year-old woman who died of septic shock in 2012 after providers in Ireland refused to empty her uterus while she was miscarrying at 17 weeks. When she begged for care, a midwife told her, “This is a Catholic country.” The resulting investigation and public outcry galvanized the country to change its strict ban on abortion.
But in the wake of deaths related to abortion access in the United States, leaders who support restricting the right have not called for any reforms.
My country's aptitude for remaining entirely unmoved by preventable tragedies that utterly upend political trajectories in other nations has become one of our most globally defining traits.

Leaving Children without a Mother while also killing the Fetus is called being PRO LIFE and PROTECTING THE CHILDREN!
This is fucking barbaric. The hospital let her sit for 40 hours with a fetus hanging out of her uterus. Just take a moment to imagine what that alone must have felt like aside from the emotional horror of losing a pregnancy. We wouldn't even imagine treating pets or livestock this way but it's clear that these repugnant forced-birthers don't consider women to be people. One little pill to speed up the labor that her body already decided was needed was all that was required to keep this woman alive. What's the point of even having healthcare when we can't rely on it.

Dear pro lifers. This is her blood. It's on your hands now. It's not the first blood that got spilled unnecessarily, and it won't be the last. And it's on your hands. YOU made this happen.
