Babies Being Found in Dumpsters After Texas Abortion Ban​

Unbelievably grim.​

Two years on, the consequences of the Texas abortion ban are almost too grim to contemplate: amidst a surge in infant mortality, babies are being found discarded in dumpsters, ditches, curbsides, and garbage trucks, the Washington Post reports.

This year, there have been at least 18 cases of abandoned infants in the state, according to Texas Department of Family and Protective Services figures cited by WaPo. That's more than double the number documented ten years ago, the newspaper notes.

"There apparently has been... a little bit of an epidemic on this," said a sheriff's official for Houston's surrounding county, where the body of an infant was found in a roadside ditch this summer, as quoted by WaPo. The morbid discovery was made by a landscaping crew.

The Texas ban, which went into effect in 2021, is considered the most draconian in the nation. It makes no exceptions even in cases of rape or incest, leaving women with no legal means of stopping unwanted pregnancies.

And according to independent research from the nonprofit Commonwealth Fund, the percentage of women without access to healthcare is the highest in the country, per WaPo. The already desperate circumstances are even worse for pregnant undocumented immigrants, who may avoid going to a clinic to seek care for fear of being deported.

"All of these intersectional things could be leading to this," Blake Rocap, a lawyer with the Sissy Farenthold Reproductive Justice Defense Project at the University of Texas at Austin, told WaPo. The issue is exacerbated by the state's "abysmal" access to prenatal care, he added, "particularly for people without private insurance, particularly for people without immigration status."

In addition to the harrowing rise of infant abandonment, Texas currently has the eighth highest rate of teenage births, per US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data, with over 20 cases per 1,000 teens aged between 15 and 19, compared to 13.6 nationwide. It also has the 13th worst maternal mortality in the country, with around 28 deaths for every 100,000 live births.

All the while, the state's Republican leadership has slashed funding for women's health and reproductive care.

But the problem isn't only the abortion ban and the poor access to care, according to critics. It's also the lack of education on the issue. State lawmakers have continued to cut funding for an awareness campaign that would inform mothers what to do when they decide they can't keep their baby, the WaPo said, despite enjoying a budget surplus well over $30 billion.

Texas has "safe haven" laws that let mothers anonymously relinquish newborn babies at designated locations without risk of prosecution — measures that are often used to downplay the cruelty of the abortion ban. But little to no effort is being made to let women know that these alternatives exist, let alone fund them.

This is plain even to opponents of abortion.

"Women don't know what to do," Shelley Sekula-Gibbs, a former congresswoman and director of The Woodlands township, told WaPo. "We have to educate, to give them more choices, to give them a chance to provide a loving home for their child."
 
Easy solution: Catalog the dead babies DNA, and then when the mother is found, charge them with murder, simple as.
Requires proof the baby wasn't born dead. In practice this involves a lot of arguments over whether there was air in the lungs by the time the corpse was recovered and so on. It is remarkably difficult to prove a homicide of an infant at birth, which is a large part of the reason it is rarely done. You could of course simply make it a criminal offence to give birth without seeking appropriate medical aid, or even better outside a healthcare facility, but the mad crunchy homebirthers will scream and writhe about their rights to create human potatoes in a birthing pool via oxygen deprivation at birth. But you could absolutely make unassisted birth a crime, and any death resulting from that a homicide.

Proof that it wasn't born dead was that it was found in a dumpster.

If you want to dodge a murder rap, you don't leave your baby in a dumpster, stillborn or not.

Womp womp.

You can certainly write such a presumption into the law, but one like that doesn't currently exist. Even if the victim of a homicide is an adult.

You don't dump a baby in a dumpster if you didn't kill it, you hold a funeral. You sound psychotic and need to be institutionalized.
 
This actually happens a surprising amount where I’m from, and abortions are totally legal here. Guess who it is?
Mexicans. Literally retarded, as in no exaggeration or hyperbole they are retards, Mexican teens who got pregnant by some ese and went “oooh sheet mi daddy goona keel me” throws baby in dumpster.

I am sorry that a statement of the law of the country you live in 'sounds psychotic' to you. Maybe you should write to your elected representative to raise the issue. I understand you are feeling emotional, so probably best to wait until tomorrow to gather your thoughts together.

You called children "human potatoes". Actually commit yourself to a mental institution.
 
I don't know why you faggots somehow think death is better than living when it comes to children. It isn't, and it never will be. The people who think otherwise are retards who had their conception of death hijacked by a modern culture who for some reason think death is "peaceful".
Postpartum depression/psychosis is a hell of a thing. It can leave mothers convinced that they'd be such awful parents and their child will have such a terrible life that they would be better off dead, or that they would go to Heaven because they're innocent. There's been plenty of cases of new mothers committing murder/suicide because when they're that ill, they see death as the best or only option.

Easy solution: Catalog the dead babies DNA, and then when the mother is found, charge them with murder, simple as.
Requires the mother's DNA to already be in the system, or for her to get picked up and tested by law enforcement for something unrelated.
 
Humanity has developed an odd relationship with death, like it can be legislated and that makes the circumstances surrounding it either moral and good or evil and bad.
It's because the internet is used by young people and young people are retarded when it comes to death. They think death is no big deal and don't have any fear of it because they don't have to worry about it. They think death at a young age is somehow preferable to bad quality of life and they have no grasp or appreciation on the finality of death. That's why you have so many faggots who think death is "peaceful" or death is "an escape from suffering". It's not. It's death.

Postpartum depression/psychosis is a hell of a thing.
Postpartum I understand, but I'm not referring to postpartum sufferers. I'm talking about the people who say a child being dead is better than living in less than ideal circumstances like many in this thread have.

A common corollary to this is all those pro-Abortion people who with a straight face tell me that abortion is better than being adopted. Same root cause as your point, I think.
 
Dead is dead. There is nothing worse than being dead. If you're going to tell me having a shitty childhood in poverty is justification for snapping a child in two as a fetus, grinding up the corpse, and stuffing them into your fucking face creamer is somehow more respectful than them growing up with shitty lives then you're an evil psychotic bastard and should kys. A child can still make something out of a shitty life. An aborted fetus is dead, there's nothing out there for it. I don't know why you faggots somehow think death is better than living when it comes to children. It isn't, and it never will be. The people who think otherwise are retards who had their conception of death hijacked by a modern culture who for some reason think death is "peaceful". Outside of being a vegetable or sex trafficked, death is the absolute worst thing that could possibly happen to a child and if you think otherwise, you're literally retarded.

If quality of life were a metric for aborting babies, half you fuckers wouldn't be here. Probably including you, Basement Stalker. You have plenty of people here on the Farms alone who had garbage lives and childhoods and grew into productive members of society or made something of their lives. Having a shitty childhood doesn't define the person you become, and it doesn't mean someday you won't be happy. It never did. It's not moral fagging or virtue signaling to say that, it's just reality.

LOL! Calm down sperg. Your autistic delusional rantings proved my point.

The same retards such as yourself, squealing about 'nothing is worse than being dead', are the same faggots who bitch about having to pay for the consequences of women being forced to have kids - ever growing single craphole mothers, rising violent crime, high taxes, shit state of healthcare, too many blacks and browns, and a fuckton of other things. Obviously, some kids will be ok after a shitty childhood, the majority are not and become burdens on society.

No one is saying women should be forced to get abortions if she is a unfit mother who can't provide a good quality of life.
In fact, many women would not abort and would love to keep their kid if anti-abortionist like yourself are willing to pay 100% for their entire upkeep and maintenance. Put your money where your mouth is.

The majority of abortion supporters aren't rubbing their hands in glee at it. They see it as a unfortunate but necessary. Most think it should only be allowed within the first trimester, which aligns with most pro-abortion laws worldwide.


And yes, I am going to tell you many "evil psychotic bastard" governments, politicians and normies use quality of life as a metric and even more, a women's autonomy, control and health of her body to determine abortion rights all around the world.


Here's your reality -

those same psychos are not far off from thinking they should grind up the homeless for meat, because, hey, their quality of life is bad.
And there doing exactly that in Canada with their maid program.
Not to mention in the future they could use it to justify cutting programs meant to help people on the base of they won't get better fast enough so why bother.
This the logical conclusion to atheism and nihilism that life has no true meaning so why stick around to tought it out.

Wrong, there are plenty of people who absolutely say that. Visit the Abortion Debate Thread.

I am not responsible for them spreading their legs and never will be. If I didn't father the child, it is not my responsibility.

Fifteen years ago I would absolutely agree with you. Now? Fuck no. You have hoes twerking on TikTok saying about how much they love abortions and killing their own children to own the Chuds. They do this to the echo of support from literally thousands of deranged and psychotic women. Some of these videos get hundreds of thousands of likes. You have women being called stunning and brave for vowing to abort their babies if they find out they're having boys. You have hoes doing post-abortion celebration videos dancing about how they "yeeted that fetus". They are absolutely rubbing their hands in glee at it.

So no, this needs to fucking stop. The hoes who do this shit are pure fucking evil and are driving normies towards anti-abortion stances. They're the loudest, craziest voices of the pro-abortion side and they've transformed it into a fucking psychotic death cult.
