"The 27-year-old has turned to the micro blogging site, and to her blog and YouTube videos, to chronicle her experience taking RU-486, commonly known as the abortion pill, in an attempt to "demystify" abortion for other women."Absolutely disgusting woman, provokes absolutely disgusting reaction.
Angie Jackson Live Tweets Her Abortion on Twitter - ABC News
She had her reasons and she went into detail about it too.
There is no such thing as a good reason to tweet something like this.
That's a good enough reason for me. Does it bother you that someone wishes to dispel the myths concerning this pill?
Abso-fucking-lutely disgusting.
What is "Abso-fucking-lutely disgusting" is the way this woman is being treated by the anti choice extremists. From the same article:
"
Already the mother of a 4-year-old son with special needs, Jackson, who lives in Tampa, Fla., with her boyfriend, said that after a difficult and life-threatening first pregnancy her doctors advised her to not get pregnant again.
"I had made a decision when my son was born to try to not get pregnant again, and if that failed I'd planned that I would get an abortion if I needed one," Jackson said.
She found out she was pregnant Feb. 13, a little more than three weeks after she conceived, early enough that she could choose RU-486 rather than a surgical abortion to terminate the pregnanc.
...
But her decision to go public with her abortionhas brought criticism. Jackson said she'd received death threats and postings on her blog that have labeled her a baby killer.
....
Among the criticisms she's received, Jackson has also been the target of a handful of death threats, as well as personal attacks on her character, her boyfriend and her son.
She said she's been called a "whore" who "can't keep her legs closed," and has also been sent Bible verses by anti-abortion rights activists."
Fortunately:
"Despite some of the harshest criticisms, Jackson said that only about a third of the responses have been negative, and the rest have been messages of support, including many from women thanking her for explaining a process they don't fully understand. "
