I told you Women Will Die!
Back when Roe V Wade was nullified by our US Supreme Court I warned all of you that women will die.
Some of you who are anti-abortion thought it was Hyperbole.
Turns out I was right again. The Draconian laws passed in many States in the US like the one in Texas which imprisons Doctors for helping a woman during a misscarriage,
is leaving many women to die from bleeding to death and infection.
The maternal mortality rate in Texas alone jumped 56%. Most of these women were not seeking abortions, they wanted to have a healthy child. No these women had complications during pregnancy and could not get a Doctor in Texas to care for them. Doctors are scared of being imprisoned and stripped of their medical liscense for taking care of a women who is spontaneously aborting.
I know that the women I know who are anti-abortion did not want this to happen, I know you are not craven, uncaring women.
However you are shortsighted. When we were all pointing to what would happen and that women would die you were focused only on the unborn child. At the least you need to widen your perspective and understand that everytime you make a law you are creating outcomes you did not expect.
A 56% jump in maternal mortality in Texas since the new anti-abortion law is an outcome you need to now be responsible for!
So now I want to say;
WOMEN ARE DYING!! and at an alarming rate in States like Texas that have draconian laws! It is no longer a predicton that they WILL die they ARE Dying!
The only question is what will we all do about this??
John and I are marching in the Women's March Sat. Nov. 2 for Reproductive Freedom here in California. You can march too. Go to Womensmarch.com and look for places near you holding a march.
Finally, if you are in the US VOTE if you haven't already. Vote for candidates who won't make laws that kill women!!!!
