A baby is not a fucking baby until it is born. I fucking hate her family. I’m not saying they or their supporters deserved any of this but I am saying they have pushed an egregious wrong forward in self-serving focus on their grief.

A fetus is not a baby. Period. It is a part of a woman’s body. Don’t fucking name it. Don’t say it would have been so and so old, you don’t know it would have made it through the delivery fucktards. A baby breathes, a fetus does not. This thing never took a breath and never became a baby. …Which is sad but doesn’t give this trashy asshole family the right to change the legal standing of every other pregnant woman on the planet because something bad happened to someone they love. I hate them. I hate them. They are trashy, trashy scum.

Sigh… The student make valid points.

If the police face no legal consequences for breaking the law, then no community will ever respect or trust them (and nor should they!)
