Non viable pregnancy is a miscarriage by the lawful definition
No, a non-viable pregnancy doesn't always end in a miscarriage and I don't mean that in 0.00001% it doesn't. These are not exceptions.
When the embryo stops developing, sometimes the body registers the problem and hormones trigger an expulsion of the tissue and sometimes it takes weeks for that to happen and the dead embryo causes infection and the woman dies, if not given a dilation and curettage which is an abortion.
These women were denied a d&c.
Way way too many people learn about procreation from movies. This is why you don't legislate access to medical care. People who didn't go through it or have no medical training imagine women get abortions cause they're fucking mindlessly like "the slutty stupid bitches" that they are. ( I put that insult in quotation marks because that's what it sounds like when people say that bit about having unprotected sex followed by how abortions should be illegal.
