Texas saw a 23% increase in infant deaths in the 1st 2 years of the bill. The rest of the nation saw a 3% decrease in infant deaths. So much for saving lives.

What kind of monsters forces the birth of a child that suffers in excruciating agony before it dies right in front of its parents, just to assuage their twisted religious beliefs?

Bingo!

Bingo!

whoa, you just excused a baby having a lingering painful death by ends justifies means

 

[SassyIrishLass]

whoa, you just excused a baby having a lingering painful death by ends justifies means

You prefer a quick painful death?

I only excuse killing unborn babies when its necessary to save the life of the mother

I’ve seen lingering death and its not pretty

But every person deserves a chance to live

Since abortions did not go down nationwide, probably not many

Well...no

Texas fertility rate increased after abortion restrictions

More than 16,000 babies were born in Texas in 2022 than in 2021, a new study from the University of Houston shows.

no. you literally said bingo to the village idiot's post
"But how many babies weren't aborted and are alive?"

And that's directly excusing the pain caused by Texas's abortion law because of other babies born

I don't believe the stats. They are cooked. How could more babies die after than before? If you think about it, that's impossible. If mothers were forced to carry and deliver unhealthy babies which every single one died within a year of birth then you would have the same number of babies which died now compared with before, not more. And, not every single baby would have died within a year. Someone is cooking the books.

Infant mortality rate was higher in America than in Cuba, even before all the uproar over abortions.

Americans really don't care! Stop pretending and just vote for Trump anyway.

It's been two years since Dobbs. Y'all were predicting piles of dead women in the streets. Why didn't that happen? Were you lying then? Are you lying now?

We will be living in the Middle Ages when it gets here in many areas. A cross between Haiti and 1900 era industrial capitalism not unlike modern China. I like your revenge. We wipe the slate clean. We will ale au natural then.
