Amber Nicole Thurman. He stuffed it back down and kept going. "Justices are weak heartless fools. "

He's almost in tears talking about his own mother having a miscarriage and a D&C when he was six years old, comparing it to the six year old boy whose mother was allowed to die in Georgia because of the anti abortion laws.

would have died had she not been able to get a D&C when Lawrence was 6. I just Googled his mom and there is a 2011 obituary for her. She was 93.

I think Lawrence was profoundly sad for the Georgia woman who died due to failure to receive proper medical care. He felt it very personally and there are countless other Americans who have endured the same situation.

Someone needs to charge SCOTUS with first degree murder.

Also the state of Georgia needs to be charged with first degree murder.

I'm afraid I have to disagree because I was in that world, and we address these situations: "women bleeding out in their cars." I was there, and we did better than today's solutions or lack of acceptable solutions. Political solutions are unacceptable regarding women's OB-GYN healthcare.

Eons of natural selection brought women to a set of acceptable options for their generation. This happened without the heavy hand of politicians and religions forcing their solutions on every woman in this country.

Following is my hands-on experience in the mid-1960s. https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1321&pid=30709

Sound up!
"The choices made by George W. Bush & Donald Trump are killing people."
"Outlawing that ( D&C ) procedure is sheer madness, criminal madness, murderous madness..."
An emotional Lawrence O'Donnell blames the death of Amber Thurman on Trump. Trump & JD Vance also killed the latest IVF bill.
