Angie Jackson has taken micro-blogging to a whole new level.
In an attempt to “demystify” abortion, the 27-year-old shared her experience on Twitter, YouTube and her personal blog.
“I’m doing this so other women know, ‘Hey, it’s not nearly as terrifying as I had myself worked up thinking it was.’ It’s just not that bad,” Jackson said on her YouTube video.
Her ordeal began on February 13, when she discovered that her IUD, a contraceptive device placed in the uterus, failed.
Jackson, a mother of a four-year-old son with special needs, decided to terminate the pregnancy.
"I had made a decision when my son was born to try to not get pregnant again, and if that failed I'd planned that I would get an abortion if I needed one," Jackson told ABCNews.com.
Last Thursday, she went to her local Planned Parenthood in Tampa, Fla,. to get RU-486, commonly known as the abortion pill.
She started chronicling the experience on Twitter under the username “antitheistangie.”
"Cramps are getting a bit more persistent," Jackson typed.
A few hours later, her status changed to “Definitely bleeding now."

Not only has she been criticized for being a “whore" who "can't keep her legs closed," but Jackson and her family have received threats as well.

How sad for this woman and her children. Pray that she will one day know God and seek forgiveness. She must know in her heart what it is that she’s done.
The “mother” is clearly so selfish, she would never have allowed for adoption.
Wonder why the hosebag doesn’t get her tubes tied.
It was very bad for the baby she murdered.
It almost seems like she’s so mad at God, she is stuffing this right in His face. There may be issues quite unrelated to abortion here.
As for tweeting, it might be interesting for some pro lifers to tweet some ultrasound scans.
It sure seems that way. What she’s done was more than just an intellectual exercise, no matter what she was telling herself at the time, and she’s just managed to compound whatever pain she was experiencing before. What a sad, lost soul.
Tweeting the joy one feels during an ultrasound scan, or when hearing your baby’s heartbeat for the very first time is a lovely idea.
Having the dad tweet too would be a nice touch.
The banal and overly made up face of evil.
I pity both of her children.
Oh and fellas, now that you’ve seen her mug, take care to stay away.
Here she is 5 yrs. from now
They....uh....I mean "he" must have been really, really drunk or drugged out of their...(darn) I mean "his" mind.
Does she feel this way because her first child has special needs?
Getting yourself sterilized was out of the question? People do it to their pets all the time.
These people are shameless. Once you believe its okay to kill babies there is nothing else you won’t do.
Yuck!
That is so gross and awful. :(
(New person here... my first post)
What a sad world we live in .........when news like this doesn’t shock us anymore....... it seems that people are in some “how disgusting can I be?” contest..... and this chick is in the semi finals.
I know I’m supposed to pray for everyone and not judge. Most of the time I fall short of that.
One should hardly be surprised - the Roe v Wade decision essentially legitimized (legally at least) abortion for *any* reason.
She could have aborted her child to sell it’s remains for dog food, as part of a satanic ritual, as a sacrifice to Baal, or to make money on the internet - so far as those Einsteins in the Supreme Court are concerned, it makes no damned difference at all.
And that’s where we’re headed folks (or maybe we’ve just arrived).
What a disgusting person. The world is full of freaks. It’s about time shame made a comeback.
Exactly. Getting tubes tied isn’t really much bigger a procedure than getting an IUD, and unlike the IUD, it has no negative side effects. It’s perfectly rational for someone with a special needs child to make a decision not to have any more children, but this woman’s rationality definitely ended there.
Murderer.
