A Black woman was criminally charged after a miscarriage. It shows the perils of pregnancy post-Roe

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio was in the throes of a bitter debate over abortion rights this fall when Brittany Watts, 21 weeks and 5 days pregnant, began passing thick blood clots.
The 33-year-old Watts, who had not shared the news of her pregnancy even with her family, made her first prenatal visit to a doctor’s office behind Mercy Health-St. Joseph’s Hospital in Warren, a working-class city about 60 miles (100 kilometers) southeast of Cleveland.
The doctor said that, while a fetal heartbeat was still present, Watts’ water had broken prematurely and the fetus she was carrying would not survive. He advised heading to the hospital to have her labor induced, so she could have what amounted to an abortion to deliver the nonviable fetus. Otherwise, she would face “significant risk” of death, according to records of her case.

Oh but Chip! Let's not forget that God wants women to have as many babies as is humanly possible so the world will be so overpopulated that people will start falling off the world. Whatever happened to the old adage: "Men keep your pants zipped up!" I wouldn't be surprised if religions started telling men to unzip and to get busy!!!!

This Is ANOTHER Case Of "The Government Getting Involved With OUR Personal Problems".
It's NONE Of Their Business, So "GET THE HELL OUT " And We'll Take Care Of This Issues Our Selves.
And Her RACE Has Nothing To Do With It, So Don't Pull THAT Sh*t AGAIN
