Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade, eliminating constitutional right to abortion

(fetus has no heartbeat)

we have now arrived at: downplaying health risks to woman because my religion

 

Did you read the article? That was literally the conclusion. She was given a pill to help speed up expelling the dead baby, it took longer than expected, the husband brought her back to the hospital and they said give it more time, then he brought her back again and they gave her IV fluids. You want to use this story to promote laws allowing the killing of a million healthy babies per year.

 

from the article:

"she had lost so much blood and bodily fluid, her body gave out, Luckily, the doctors were able to stabilize her"

she literally almost died at home because the hospitals refused to treat her because of the law

 

Proving once again it isn't just the moniker that is stupid.

Not coincidentally by any means, Louisiana was recently listed as the worst state in the nation for women's and children's health. Congrats offered to the victors. But personally, I wouldn't want any woman of reproductive age or any actual babies I cared about to live there.

[Obligatory: when's the last time you knew a woman of reproductive age, B-Bob? Hardy har.]

 

The guardrail against extremist legislation is gone, and the results keep on coming

Louisiana Legislature approves bill classifying abortion pills as controlled dangerous substances

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Two abortion-inducing drugs could soon be reclassified as controlled and dangerous substances in Louisiana under a first-of-its-kind bill that received final legislative passage Thursday and is expected to be signed into law by the governor.

Supporters of the reclassification of mifepristone and misoprostol, commonly known as “abortion pills,” say it would protect expectant mothers from coerced abortions. Numerous doctors, meanwhile, have said it will make it harder for them to prescribe the medicines that they use for other important reproductive health care needs, and could delay treatment.

Passage of the bill comes as both abortion rights advocates and abortion opponents await a final decision from the U.S. Supreme Court on an effort to restrict access to mifepristone. The justices did not appear ready to limit access to the drug on the day they heard arguments.

The GOP-dominated Legislature’s push to reclassify mifepristone and misoprostol could possibly open the door for other Republican states with abortion bans that are seeking tighter restrictions on the drugs. Louisiana currently has a near-total abortion ban in place, applying both to surgical and medical abortions.

Current Louisiana law already requires a prescription for both drugs and makes it a crime to use them to induce an abortion in most cases. The bill would make it harder to obtain the pills by placing it on the list of Schedule IV drugs under the state’s Uniform Controlled Dangerous Substances Law.

The classification would require doctors to have a specific license to prescribe the drugs, which would be stored in certain facilities that in some cases could end up being located far from rural clinics. Knowingly possessing the drugs without a valid prescription would carry a punishment including hefty fines and jail time.

More than 200 doctors in the state signed a letter to lawmakers warning that it could produce a “barrier to physicians’ ease of prescribing appropriate treatment” and cause unnecessary fear and confusion among both patients and doctors. The physicians warn that any delay to obtaining the drugs could lead to worsening outcomes in a state that has one of the highest maternal mortality rates in the country.

In addition to inducing abortions, mifepristone and misoprostol have other common uses, such as treating miscarriages, inducing labor and stopping hemorrhaging.

Mifepristone was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2000 after federal regulators deemed it safe and effective for ending early pregnancies. It’s used in combination with misoprostol, which the FDA has separately approved to treat stomach ulcers.

 

They’re just getting started in Louisiana they already have child labor laws and unemployment in their sights…the citizens over there better get the lube out.

 

Anecdotal: young established doctors who aren't yet so rooted are also moving away

 

Perhaps if we would stop murdering hundreds of millions of babies, birth rates wouldn't be on the decline.

 

Hundreds of millions of babies? Take better care of the children we have.

 

One murdered baby per every four Americans?

Good to know.

 

idk. advanced math was never my specialty

 

Just millions of babies. About a million per year in the US.

 

Ron Paul had an opinion?

 

Because they are monsters, and really don't care as much for the life and health of the mother or the unborn but instead only want to control women and the decisions they make about their own bodies (even if at risk).

 

Well if she violated the praying at a clinic federal statute she deserves the death penalty... Either that or this is another in a long line of BS social media propaganda dung.
