Missouri proposes outlawing abortion for ectopic pregnancies

Perpetrators would face up to 30 years in prison. Since ectopic pregnancies are universally fatal to both the ZEF and the pregnant person, this law if enacted will result in needless death while not saving a single ZEF.

If so-called "pro-life" people say that they are also concerned about women, they should oppose this law. But they're silent, leading to the conclusion that they support it.

ZEF?

@ninalanyon Short for zygote/embryo/fetus. The term is common on Reddit subs that discuss abortion on both sides.

@LeopoldBloom Thank you, I wish people would avoid abbreviations, or at least define then on first use in a post. I'm probably guilty too :-(

@ninalanyon Good point. ZEF may not be well known outside of Reddit.
