Pictures of these women on the link. They have money for tattoos and weave but not to care for a baby? Plus where is the father of the baby? Like these women got pregnant by themselves?

There are safe haven laws in every state.

Was this rape or was it incest?

There are costs to being poor. Even Jesus said basically that. If one of the costs is not being able to afford to kill your baby ... oh, well. Not seeing the downside.

Then maybe they shouldn't have sex and get pregnant in the first place. Duh.

Say what? She took a day off from work? Shirley you can’t be series. She had nine months to schedule an abortion on a scheduled day off.

They can afford the sex and can’t afford to kill. Cry me a river.

Most women who have abortions are young, poor, unmarried, and nonwhite.

They are the ones who will suffer most if we make abortion illegal again.

I hate abortion but I don’t believe in making everything that’s immoral illegal. That sort of approach is unrealistic and cruel. It’s also punitive and vindictive.

It’s why prohibition turned into such a disaster even though its proponents felt they were protecting women and children from abusive and negligent men who drank too much. The problem wasn’t alcohol, it was people’s attitude toward it.

I don’t what the answer the answer to abortion is but I’m old enough to know that outlawing it again WILL NOT WORK. There were as many abortions before Roe v Wade as after, only after 1973 they were legal and the many competent physicians who performed them for countless women were no longer in danger of prosecution.

Abortion is WAY down the list of poor rural women’s problems.

I’ll just get crude - -

Declare yourself a mooslime.

Say it is an FGM.

Anyone who objects is a Islamophobe, Racist, Homophobe, Intolerant, White Sooperemecist, etc.

And the hand-raising Demo[n]crats should support “110%”

>>It is also getting harder. A wave of anti-abortion bills have spread across the US, especially parts of the conservative south. The aim is to make abortion more difficult, with more paperwork, bureaucracy and early deadlines and, perhaps, one day outlaw it.

The GOP mandated that her employer get a signed note from her doctor explaining the absence and indicating she was sound health to go back to work???

I read about her time in college classes, traveling to work, chain restaurant job, visit to clinic, living in her car and shower in gym, two jobs and full time student and one kid, and more.

How does she have time to get pregnant?

She is a busy chick.

Why aren’t the incompetent doctors who perform (and botch) legal abortions today being prosecuted?

The article says one of the women has three children already and is getting rid of the fourth.

Why get rid of just one? Why not kill two of them? Or three?

Why not leave all the little ones alive, and kill that MIA dad? Or would that be wrong?

I do think these women need help. Does anybody realize there are at least 4X as many Pregnancy Aid centers in the USA, as there are abortion clinics?

There are 38 Pregnancy Resource Centers in Louisiana alone.

These lifesaving centers provide services absolutely free of charge to all clients. Their philosophy is "Love Them Both" (mother and child). They need more publicity --- and a lot more support.

That’s not an argument to make it illegal again.

If you’re concerned about women’s safety you would want to keep it legal as well as ensure that those who perform abortions know what they’re doing.

If it’s outlawed again it WILL be more dangerous.

Only abortion opponents won’t care any more.
