huge fish in a minuscule barrel

A Florida court has blocked a thirteen year old girl's abortion. Now watch as Metafilter froths into abortion wank.

Screw the high road.

Bevets, up yours! Give me a Shop Vac and I'll rip that baby out myself. And then I'll sodomize your Lord Jesus Christ and your mother.

And don't pull that "my mother's dead! How dare you!" bullshit. If she's dead, that will make it even sweeter when I rape her corpse.

Pick of the litter so far.

Bloody terrifying, eh? And, now that I'm feeling slightly more coherent: What the frell is wrong with that chick going on about how she should have to carry it to teach her a lesson? That's so beyond twisted. Emotional and psychological issues aside, a thirteen-year-old is at far greater physical risk than a grown woman! */Rant* Oops. I had meant to avoid wanking, hadn't I? *Blush*

Silly girl, don't you know that the pain of childbirth was God's punishment to Eve, and any slut who has the audacity to have sex should accept her punishment like a good little brood creature? The nerve of some people, trying to back out of their God-given punishments!

Just a second here, though. Do you want to have Pretty_Generic's theoretical future babies, or do you want to abort them?

According to some dude on SA:

"That BBC story manages to fuck up entirely what's going on. Their coverage of US legal happenings is usually pretty crappy.

What is going on is this: a 13 year-old with the initials 'LG' got pregnant. She is under the care of the Florida Dept of Children and Families (DCF). She wants an abortion, but is too young by state law to get one without consent (minimum age w/o parental consent is 14). By law, the DCF cannot give consent in any extraordinary medical procedures (barring emergencies), and has to seek court approval. Abortion is one of the procedures that the DCF cannot give consent to. The judge agrees, and has scheduled a psychiatric review, again required by law, to ensure that getting an abortion would be in her best interests.

In other words, completely reasonable things happening in a reasonable sequence."

Don't know if it's true, but there you have it from NotYella.

Even if that's true, I'd say that a thirteen-year-old being pregnant does in fact constitute an emergency, since if they keep farfling around she'll be too far along to have the procedure done by the time all the forms are signed in triplicate, and giving birth would be extremely risky for a girl of that age physically, let alone psychologically.

In an attempts to smooth my risen hackles, I shall meditate on some of the weirder comments:

From some anti-little girl pro-life dork:

child: a person with 2 parents

Will no one think of the orphans?

From someone else:

About a third of my female students are either pregnant or expecting.

Bzuh? Isn't "expecting" a euphemism for "pregnant"? What are they expecting, then?

The best snark in that com is friendslocked, so I had to join. And just. So many girls in [info]amipregnant apparently don't realise that one has to have intercourse in order to get pregnant, and no, your bf jerking off and then fingering you will not get you pregnant and WHY ARE AL THE STUPID PEOPLE GETTING LAID DAMMIT?

When I was a teenager, I was the Token Virgin, and also the one who actually KNEW ABOUT SEX. I actually had to tell people to stop telling me about their sex lives because half of them weren't using condoms (Um, hi, AIDS?) and some of them were using no protection at all and it was driving me INSANE.

Apparently, not much has changed. Gah.

OI! I'M RIGHT AND I WILL FIGHT YOU AT GLOWSTICKPOINT TO PROVE IT!

prairieprincess posts asking for advice about her cat (http://www.livejournal.com/community/parrot_lovers/919906.html), in a parrot community. Clearly she is confused.

She doesn't like the response, and posts to tell everyone she's leaving (http://www.livejournal.com/community/parrot_lovers/920071.html).
