No. The court is ordering the state to allow the necessary medical procedure, NOT mandating to the pregnant woman that she must have an abortion. You either need to read the article more closely, or stop changing the words into different meanings, whichever is relevant.
They are clearly satirizing the arguments conservatives make about allowing abortions.
I think there was a hidden /s in there. Or at least I hope.
Unless the OC says anything, I'm not assuming there was any sarcasm. I knew too many people back home who honestly believed such things.
As long as the fetus is baptized so it's soul may enter the Kingdom Of Heaven then mandatory abortions guarantee salvation inshallah 🙏
It also means less cannon fodder for the quiverfull cultists.
...fair enough. :-| Didn't read it that way but I can see it.
It's all part of the demonrats plan to replace the white people with Muslims from Mexico
No no no this is just a cover to be used when the 5G vaccines activate and start causing mass preborn child deaths. These good god fearing women are part of the silent majority and would never actually want an abortion, this is the deep state's doing!
Oh and something something Jewish space lasers too

The decision marks a significant development in the ongoing debate over the state’s medical exception to its controversial ban on abortions after six weeks – one of the strictest in the nation.
Her lawsuit is believed to be one of the first attempts in the country by an individual seeking a court-ordered abortion since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last year, according to the New York Times.
She has had two prior cesarean surgeries – C-sections – and, the suit said, “continuing the pregnancy puts her at high risk for severe complications threatening her life and future fertility, including uterine rupture and hysterectomy.”
“The idea that Mrs. Cox wants desperately to be a parent, and this law might actually cause her to lose that ability is shocking and would be a genuine miscarriage of justice,” Judge Maya Guerra Gamble said.
A lawyer representing Texas argued Thursday that Cox’s pregnancy symptoms did not meet the standard set out by the state for a medical emergency that would allow for an abortion.
The argument over subjective versus objective medical reasons for an abortion is central to the ongoing debate and legal fights regarding the state’s exception rule.

Judge really couldn't find a better phrase than 'miscarriage of justice'
