Woman Live-Tweets Her Abortion

27-year-old Angie Jackson has decided that it isn't inappropriate or in any way distasteful to live-tweet about her experience taking RU-486, also known as the abortion pill. According to Jackson nothing is off-limits on Twitter. "I don't feel like I'm doing anything different from what I do every day," said Jackson. "But now I have people calling me a killer; it's surreal."

    Ask your doctor if RU-486 is right for you.*

    If she really tweeted her abortion I would be very impressed, but I suspect that she really tweeted her child's abortion.

    Not defending the GP, just pointing out a logical fallacy: "Failing to implant" is more analogous to "spontaneously dying from a brain hemorrhage" than murder. Murder involves intent and action, as does abortion. Failing to implant does not.
