A case supporting abortion

Buttbutter.....er uh....boltcutters, contributed:
Advocates for women have rallied around a suicidal pregnant woman who survived a dose of rat poison, but has been jailed on murder charges because her poisoned infant died shortly after birth.

The state of Indiana has charged Bei Bei Shuai, 34, with murder and feticide. She faces up to 85 years in prison if convicted...

Enough mental illness and emotional challenges that she tries to kill herself, but the Reich Wing Fascists want to make sure that they charge her with a crime because she was also sick enough to try to take the child's life.  I'm sure they really want to get their hands on the woman in New York who drove into the river.  Sorry fascists....she's dead.

Now, as Paul Harvey would say.....the REST of the story:

Shaui’s downward spiral began in late December, when her boyfriend blindsided her. It turned out the man who had fathered her baby and promised to marry her, and with whom she’d recently opened a restaurant, wasn’t going to follow through on any of his promises. He was married to someone else—not divorced, as he’d told Shuai—with two children. And perhaps lacking vision or a spine, he decided he didn’t want to give up his estranged family to start a new one. He left Shuai, sobbing on her knees, alone in a parking lot.

Interesting how Buttbutter left out these details, huh?  Oh...and that which they call "infant" was not yet born when the lady attempted the suicide.

When in doubt, make something up.

What a horrible story. And to think that there are people out there who would rally around someone like that is even more disgusting.

What's really disgusting is your lack of compassion for people who have found themselves in situations they can't see their way out of.

I don't have any compassion for someone who willingly takes an innocent life with their actions. If you do then you are a sick individual.

A 34-year-old woman in a planned and wanted pregnancy who was suffering from a major depressive disorder attempted to take her own life.

What does it say about the "compassionate conservative" obsession with incarceration and using the criminal justice system to treat public health issues, and treating women as if they were somehow separate from their own pregnancies — that we would give a life sentence to a woman who tried to kill herself, just because she did so, in a moment of utter despair and distress, at the end of a wanted pregnancy? Is this (or any) punishment really appropriate here? Does anyone really think this will somehow deter desperate and distraught pregnant women from attempting suicide in the future?

If these shameless ideologues truly cared about healthy moms and babies, their focus would be on how they can support pregnant women, not how they can manipulate our criminal laws, and undermine basic constitutional principles, to find new ways to punish them.

The stupidity of radec is that the "life that was taken" hadn't started yet.

I'll bet radec would really be pissed off if the woman would have died and there was no one to blame and punish.

"I don't have any compassion for someone who willingly takes an innocent life with their actions. If you do then you are a sick individual."

Now if they were an illegal alien in the desert in Arizona and a border patrol killed them, that would be different.
