Mississippi most restrictive abortion laws in nation

[TinyPrincess]

Compared to Iowa, that part of the world is pretty big.

126 countries where women face fewer obstacles to abortion than in Iowa

(Edit: I'm not sure why Greenland is greyed out. Maybe someone forgot it)

Greenland has the same abortion laws as the rest of Denmark. It's totally up to the woman to decide if she wants to keep the baby. If not the abortion is free of charge (as all healthcare). If I'm not mistaken, the abortion rate in Greenland is higher than rest of Denmark. Something like half of all pregnancies ends with an abortion.

Right, that's what I meant when I said I don't know why it's grey. Should be pink like most of Europe / Asia / Australia

I agree 100% it is a woman's choice. Her's alone!!!

Not abortion, but kinda related... I saw a tweet/post/something today that said "Dr wouldn't tie my tubes because I'm not married and maybe someday my husband my husband may want kids. Medically, my body belongs to a man I haven't met."

I had something similar. I was told I needed a partial hysterectomy because of endometriosis. But 3 different doctors refused to do it, because I was 28 and single. All 3 felt as your Dr did. "You may want more kids or the man you marry will want them" I did finally find one that took the actual reason I needed it and didn't hesitate.

Little Rock is now the only place in the entire state of Arkansas to obtain an abortion and only the most invasive method will be on the table.

Was on my way here to post this.

Much love to Mr. Tex for keeping a up with the ladies issues and giving a damn.

Mississippi most restrictive? Not ANYMORE.

I remember not too long ago when some of us here warned of how the GOP was out to overturn Roe vs. Wade, and how some of their defenders said that'd NEVER happen. WELL:

HB 481: Georgia law criminalizes abortion, subjects women to life in prison.

"On Tuesday, Georgia Republican Gov. Brian Kemp signed a “fetal heartbeat” bill that seeks to outlaw abortion after about six weeks. The measure, HB 481, is the most extreme abortion ban in the country—not just because it would impose severe limitations on women’s reproductive rights, but also because it would subject women who get illegal abortions to life imprisonment and the death penalty."

Women comprise 50% of the state's population. If all would band together for the sake of their reproductive health and destiny, they could change this awful law.

It is a law that deserves to be broken.

I thought the plan was to make the 3. World more American, not the other way around. I can't believe these state laws reversing decades of gain of individual freedom. TaliKlan in its worst form.

Jacobinism still finding its way in the 21st century must be the biggest hypocrisy ever after a proud founding and centuries of constitutional progress. In a state that was founded by people who wanted to be free from oppression.

"Which is better - to be ruled by one tyrant three thousand miles away or by three thousand tyrants one mile away?" - Mather Byles must be doing rolls in his grave now.

ETA = I was so disgusted that I didn't go beyond reading after the 2. page. My apologies to the contributors of the rest.

Missouri's Only Abortion Clinic Will Remain Open

For now. No doubt The Right will quickly pick up the case, continuing to attack a Constitutional Right and deny women their rights/access to healthcare

 

[LadyMarmalade65]

When Roe v. Wade was passed, the first trimester was the limit. Eventually it was realized that he fetus doesn't really show any sign of pain until 20 weeks, so that became the norm.

I don't know why some people have such a hard-on for regulating abortion. The same people for abortion are also for the death-penalty.
