Tara Rule says her doctor in upstate New York was “determined to protect a hypothetical fetus" instead of helping her treat debilitating pain.

    No, he should lose his medical license and potentially suffer other consequences, but that’s through the process of a civilized society. The nurse practitioner’s actions sound criminal and should be prosecuted as such. No need to act barbaric.

      And that’ll fix society? Because we’ve been trying it that way for a very long time. Things are getting so much better doing it that way right?

      Day by day society is getting more progressive and moving away from things like this right? Right?

        1. Yes, society is getting more progressive.

        2. Even if it didn’t, violence won’t solve anything.

          We are getting more progressive? When did we get roe versus Wade back? Did we stop trying to outlaw trans people? When did the police stop executing black people in the street just for fun?

          These people do what they want because it’s literally legal for them to do it. Nobody is doing anything to stop them. Now if they all started getting drug into the middle of the street and sat on fire they would think twice.

            We are definitely getting more progressive. We are in a better position than pre-Roe and I’m sure Dobbs will be overturned in my lifetime. Trans rights and black rights have continued to improve, though slower than we’d like. The idea that “nobody is doing anything to stop them” is provable false.
