sardonic-cephalopod:sixpenceee:This gravestone from 1875 reads:“Kate McCormick, Seduced and pregnant by her father’s friend, Unwed she died from abortion, her only choice, Abandoned in life and death by family, With but a single rose from her mother, Buried only through the kindness of an unknown benefactor, Died February 1875, age 21, Victim of an unforgiving society, Have mercy on us.”THIS is why we need to keep abortion legal and accessible to everyone who wants or needs one. We have the tools and knowledge to keep abortions safe and we can’t let ourselves regress in the medical field. FYI if someone wants an abortion, they’re going to get it by any means necessary.Also people really suck -- source link
