Yeah...I sort of flipped my shit all over JF when this broke over there.
It horrifies me to know that if this had been law ten years ago there would have been a chance that someone could have hauled my ass into jail when I had my miscarriage. Never mind that it wasn't anything I did that caused it. It would've just been my word against someone else's, and since when did a woman's word hold any weight there?
revisiting the case of a 17-year-old girl from Vernal, Utah, who was seven months pregnant last May, when she paid 21-year-old Aaron Harrison $150 to beat her up after her boyfriend threatened to leave her if she didn't terminate the pregnancy.
I'd say the boyfriend deserves equal blame, but you know he'll never be held accountable for anything as long as men make the laws.
