Frozen embryos are ‘children,’ Alabama Supreme Court rules in couples’ wrongful death suits

Alabama families who are struggling with fertility can now look forward to no fertility clinics willing to endure the legal risk of operating in that state.

Great job republicans. These weird ass “pro life” laws continue to prevent people who want kids from having them, or prevent people from having them without dying.

Soon it'll be illegal to end your ovulation cycle because every egg is a life. Jesus these people are some fucking dumb religious zealots.

It won't be long before the Monty Python song about every sperm being sacred, becomes the MAGA crowds mantra. Wankers that they are.

bOtH sIdEs aRe tHe sAmE!!!

The fuck they are. If you are a woman voting republican you are OK with other people telling you what to do with your body.

Sooo how does it work when you've done a successful IVF and still got a bunch of Frozen embryos waiting somewhere? Do you get back at home and put them in the freezer until you die? Are you mandated to carry them to term? What if a woman dies in a car accident before she had a chance to carry the embryo? Is the man mandated to find someone to carry them to term? I have so many questions

Don't forget kids, a miscarriage is murder.

Slavery is freedom.

Those with money are the only people who matter, and whoever has the most is the one who deserves to decide every aspect of how everyone else should live.

So ... if they are people ... and they aren't used for 21 years ... can their infant form but alcohol?

IVF results in children being born who otherwise would not have been. These are women who want to be pregnant and give birth. Yet, the pro-life movement is trying to destroy this kind of healthcare.

I for one am sick and tired of everyone talking about freedom and 2A rights when nobody has done a single fucking thing about the obvious tyranny.

There's another thread begging us not to excoriate Alabama citizens because of a few corrupt politicians and religious wackos. NO. I was born there. My family are there. And they are a bunch of psychotic freedom-hating, gun-toting, bible-thumping neanderthal psychopaths just like their politicians are.

Here are the facts: the people whining and complaining about this sit there and take it. It's always someone else; it's never the psychotic lunatics in their own family, so they take it. If only all those other people would speak up and do something.

My brother has spent his lifetime campaigning for pro-life causes whenever he can because he went to a psychotic christian university. I don't have anything to do with him. His only son killed himself at 13 in a gun mishap but he is masturbating FURIOUSLY over this AL SupCourt decision.

This WILL continue until you ACTUALLY FIGHT IT. If you have no intention to or think that's somehow barbaric, then sit down and shut the fuck up.

Whoops, no they aren't.

Made a whoopsie there, Alabama

If embryos are children, then make it illegal to freeze them and lock them away in an ice box.... That's a cruel form of torture

This is your brain on Christianity

That doesn't seem right. I assume they're suing to cover the cost of redoing the procedure, but I don't think the court should be setting this precedent. There must be another law they could sue under. (And hopefully they didn't get complete sterilization after freezing those embryos.)

If they’re people they should be given ARs and put on the street to spread freedom.

So if they are children we can take them off our taxes? I joke but that same thinking happened in Georgia when the pregnant woman used the HOV lane being the only person in the car.

But you CAN'T claim them on your Taxes!

Next up: Masturbation is mass murder. Every Sperm is Sacred!

The patient removed embryos from the freezer, and “it is believed that the cryopreservation’s subzero temperatures burned the eloping patient’s hands, causing him or her to drop the cryopreserved embryonic human beings on the floor, where they began to slowly die,” one of the filings stated.

So the patient killed his or her frozen embryos and now they're suing the clinic for wrongful death of a minor. Makes sense on so many levels.

Hold up, this sounds like unfertilized eggs. Does this mean that every period a woman has, where she passes an unfertilized egg is a wrongful death?! What in the FUUUUUCK...

I am an idiot, excuse me.

If I jizz into a casing then fire a round into J Mitchell’s eye…is that murder on my part or do they charge the ‘baby’?
