They aborted a child 7 months into pregnancy. That’s murdering a baby. Fuck those people, glad they are being prosecuted, and it’s good that Meta complied. The law in that state gives her 20 weeks to abort. That’s 5 months. That is a pretty liberal allowance.

After a dramatic filibuster effort earlier this year NE changed their abortion law to a ban that starts at 12 weeks.

Not at the time that this crime was committed so it’s irrelevant to this story, but regardless they still aborted the baby at 7 months in.

Who gives a fuck? Genuinely. It's dead regardless of when it died.

In this instance it would have been viable outside the womb at the time it was killed.

Hate to break it to you, Clyde... still her body, still her choice.
