there's quite a bit of irony here....  |
Is the irony that the state is concerned for the unborn "child" and is willing to look after the mother's health to protect the "child" who will soon be a U.S. citizen-- but it is not concerned if the mother considers the "child" to be a not-yet human but merely a fetus, and it is not concerned that the something that could happen to the "child" is an abortion?
