While the bill attempts to mitigate the criminal risk for providers handling pregnancy complications, it leaves intact the most powerful deterrent: steep penalties of up to $100,000 in fines, 99 years in prison and loss of medical license for those who violate the law.
If I'm a doctor, there is no way I'm sticking my neck out, even if this law opens the door a crack. No one wants to be the test case for what is or isn't going to send you to prison for the rest of your life.
This won't wipe the blood from their hands.
This shit makes me SO MAD. Real people are being treated like nonhumans, like their lives don't matter. I could easily be one of those women, just dead. Dead for no goddamned reason.
I'm assuming the window of opportunity to abort the ghouls who passed this legislation in the first place has passed?
How about the death penalty for social murder
