    Ashley Brandt, a Dallas resident, said she was pregnant with twins but learned one had a fatal condition called acrania. The longer she carried it, the more it jeopardized the survival of her other twin.

    oh my god…

      I don’t think you can be any more “pro life” than putting 2 other healthy people at risk to save the life of a baby that’s going to die.

          Yeah that never made sense. I am prochoice and hate the death penalty. It should only be used when the crime is such that you legit can not put it in the same category as regular murder and a message has to be sent. Like when some dictator commits genocide. That’s it. It has to be so extreme that the regular justice system doesn’t have a clue what to even do about it.
