Why don't these Brazilian women simply fly to Texas and partake of the planned parenthood clinics though out the state?

Yet another example of countries that purport to be bastions of freedom excluding women from that calculation.

They make Mississippi look like a women's paradise.

internet. That would not help anyhow. Most of those women probably do not own a computer.

about half of all maternity beds were occupied by women recovering from illegal abortions.

What's truly pathetic is that those who seek to outlaw abortions apparently do believe that if abortions are outlawed, women just won't get them. Or that pregnant women whimsically decide to have an abortion, just because.

don't care one iota about the women who will have them. They seek to punish them anyways. What better way than to have them die from illegal abortions.

that women get abortions just because they feel like having one that day, you know, on the way to having their nails done or after shoe shopping or whatever.

It was like an underground railroad of emancipation for women. I can't imagine being in a place where there are no safe options whatsoever. How horrifying.

have to resurrect as the woman-hating, pro-forced birthers in our halls of legislation roll back the rights for which we have fought so hard.

45 years ago. I'd certainly do everything I could to help.

If not it should be handed out like candy.
