1 / Worth an educational read. This guy here is so textbook "American Deplorable" that he has a show called "deplorable show". This tweet is... "delicious". I think I'll screenshot-save it. Public statistics associate exactly this type of childhood experience with ALL bad things:

2 / Life-long depression:

3/ Crime and other anti-social behavior (life-long):

4/ Violence in general, known as the "cycle of violence" (seriously... 9 children from 6 fathers? And that's not child abuse and violence?)

5/ Cognitive, brain and mental deficit in general (leading to a cycle of poor decision-making)

6/ "Oh, but an unwanted pregnancy doesn't predict neglect and abuse" => YES, IT DOES, VERY STRONGLY (as in "science")

7/ Adult drug abuse (by the unwanted child born from a drug user who was denied legal abortion or brainwashed into not taking this option). Data also suggests that this adult will continue the cycle of addiction and child abuse

8/ That mother from the 1st tweet should have had a mandatory abortion. Yes, that is a "thing": women who get pregnant due to mental incapacitation and are institutionalized can be ordered to have the fetus aborted in several countries. This requires medical request.

9/ My friend was head of psychiatry in the biggest public hospital in Brazil. A Schizophrenic patient was impregnated 4 times and had HIV. The department requested the abortion of the last child. The judge denied it. The child was born HIV positive and she died.

10/ The judge, who was a "Christian", was sued by the department. He lost the lawsuit. In my opinion, he should be disbarred as well. Not only I defend legal and FREE abortion but mandatory abortion in cases where the mother is obviously incapable of deciding for herself.

11/ Observe that that mother in the first tweet lost custody of all her children but she kept spawning, generating more potential addicts, depressed and suicidal people, sick individuals and cost to society in every respect. Is that ok?
