An autopsy report stated Poolaw’s child died at 17 weeks gestation.
Did you know that there are lots of conditions, genetic and otherwise, that are not regularly tested for before a person gets pregnant?
Lots of them can kill the baby, without anyone knowing why unless they try really, really hard to find out - and they usually don’t.
But instead of testing for these things, we’re doing this bullshit.
This is NOT about saving babies. It’s not about the sanctity of life. We all know this. We all know it’s about controlling women, and punishing the ones that can’t be controlled.
Any of y’all read Bitch Planet? That’s closer to what we’re headed for than Handmaid’s Tale.
