just three women have died and 50783 babies have been saved by Texas' abortion law. A damn good trade if you ask me.

As a bonus for the hateful Republican shit that passed the ban, she's Black.

I notice that none of them are white.
That's probably a coincidence yeah
- They had a white one right before the election. Must have got lost in the crowd of other deaths.

- Way to make it about race…and then totally fuck it up.
  
  First off there is truth to your words. All of these avoidable deaths are deplorable and unacceptable. Regardless of color.
  With that said -- whether or not you see race doesn't mean the world does not see race. POC are more than two times likely to die in childbirth compared to white people. It is absolutely fair to bring up race to pull attention to the issue that being a POC means you are more likely to have complications at birth.
  Bringing up race does not negate the initial issue, it just means that there are more than one issue at hand here.
- Yea, who needs unity in difficult times, let’s squabble over useless shit instead.
  
  unity for what? Killing pregnant women? Dude that seems really wrong.

Get fucked America… or better, abstain xD
