Angie Jackson live-tweets her abortion to 'demystify' procedure, receives death threats

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.

“antitheistangie” pretty much says it all. She’s a proud maltheist. I can’t stand to read her story about killing the most innocent kind of human life there is, makes me too emotional just to think about it.

You have to think about the spiritual state of the "father" of this aborted baby, too. He was either a person who knew she would abort if she got pregnant, or frankly didn't give a damn one way or the other.

In any case, the murdered child had a father as well as a mother. And both showed their contempt for Life, the precious natural source of Life (the union of a man and a woman), and the divine Author of Life.

Pretty much performing an infant sacrifice to her god of this world.

I predict at some point both will be very sorry.

So true. There is no shame in anything these days. Nothing.

I think this would be reason enough to make an anonymous call to child protective services.

Just another case where the town pump should have spiked the pipes.
