The official consequences caused by the overturning of Roe thread

[HomerJS]

These stories will be coming on a regular basis so I wanted a thread to compile them separate from the discussion from the legal case of the repeal of Roe

I'll start it off...


This woman was trying to get pregnant. Now because of what they have done her health and the ability to have children in the future has been threatened.

This is what Republicans voted for.

I'll add a link about the methotrexate problem as well.

Roe v. Wade overturn: Autoimmune patients having problems getting methotrexate prescriptions filled

Since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, many autoimmune patients across the country are having problems getting their prescriptions for methotrexate refilled.

And the infamous story of the 10 year old who was denied an abortion after her rape because she was 6 weeks and 3 days pregnant.

A rape, an abortion, and a one-source story: a child's ordeal becomes national news

The Indianapolis Star's story about an anonymous child rape victim from Ohio who crossed state lines to get an abortion became a political lightning rod. Now a man has been arraigned for the rape.

Autoimmune patients are losing access to essential medications as states crack down on abortions. The reason? The drugs can also be used to end pregnancies. (msn.com)

Ohio claims that is false, and that it would have been authorized / legal for a 10 year old.
If Ohio is telling the truth, or simply lying to us... is another matter.

• Autoimmune patients are losing access to essential medications

That's... one hell of a consequence and a good reason to oppose the ruling, demand federal action, and vote Democrat.

Then why did she have to travel to Indiana to get her abortion?

Do not vote Republican... EVER!

 

[pauldun170]

This is what Republicans voted for.

This is what Republicans voted for and this is what Republican apologists supported.
The Apologists
- Those who don't vote
- Those who vote for Mickey Mouse because they claim "they are all bad"
- Clowns who enter discussion and cloud the waters with technicalities that don't matter when Republicans policy or Republicans in general are called out
- Idiots who remain willfully ignorant on issues at hand because they are not directly impacted or are too stupid to see that they are impacted.

 

[Jaskalas]

Then why did she have to travel to Indiana to get her abortion?

With the facts considered....

• Dr. Caitlin Bernard listed the rapist as being approximately 17 in her official filing to the Indiana Department of Health, the outlet said.
• 27-year-old confessed rapist

Perhaps they crossed state lines and lied about the ID of the perp... to try and protect the rapist.

Another similar story in Michigan

Abortion bans create confusion around miscarriage, ectopic pregnancies - The Washington Post

A woman with a life-threatening ectopic pregnancy sought emergency care at the University of Michigan Hospital after a doctor in her home state worried that the presence of a fetal heartbeat meant treating her might run afoul of new restrictions on abortion.

At one Kansas City, Mo., hospital, administrators temporarily required “pharmacist approval” before dispensing medications used to stop postpartum hemorrhages, because they can also be also used for abortions.

And in Wisconsin, a woman bled for more than 10 days from an incomplete miscarriage after emergency room staff would not remove the fetal tissue amid a confusing legal landscape that has roiled obstetric care.

And we're only 3 weeks in...

Right wing media...cough...cough...Fox News...cough said the story was fake.

The perp has been arrested. Often cases involving a minor are kept hidden for obvious reasons

Which they conveniently ignored, and went on a rant about something else.

The default lately is always the "border crisis". Nothing else looks very good to normal people.

 

[Jaskalas]

Right wing media...cough...cough...Fox News...cough said the story was fake.

They appeared very much interested after learning the rapist was an illegal alien.
Then it gets... weird... when the girl's mother doesn't want anyone to get in trouble for it.

Point being, it's a bit of a messy case - and there's no clear indicator that she was denied medical care in Ohio. Was there?
The story is a bit of a distraction from more certain cases, of which there'll obviously be many to choose from.

If you had a little girl who at 9 was raped and pregnant you might try to shield her. There will be a trial and she may have to face her rapist all over again

Assholes don't tend to think through the consequences of their actions. They are compromised people, they cannot see the big picture.

Consequences of this new GOP theocratic fascism has history. Clearly we haven't learned from it.
No room for religious liberty in abortion debate? Since when are we a one-faith nation? (msn.com)

 

[JTsyo]

Scary at the number of these cases in only 3 weeks already.

A total of 629,898 abortions for 2019 were reported to CDC from 49 reporting areas.

So if we figure 0.01% would involve something that makes it newsworthy, that's 12 cases each week. Though the ones in states where abortion laws didn't change wouldn't have the cases.

I think it's more that they just don't care. Consequences are for other people.
