In fear for their own prosperity, these doctors just let a woman die in agony. LET HER DIE. it was preventable, and they stood by and watched it happen, because, oh gosh, we might go out of business. They did so at the behest of a coward government which passed this law, knowing full well what the consequences would be. They were warned, they charged ahead anyway. They did so to serve the interests of an archaic institution that revolves around a fantasy world, where a magic man living in the sky talks to you, but only if you have a dick and only if you promise to not use it.
Savita's blood is on their hands. Hers and those women who will follow so long as this law stands, so long as this standard persists. If they truly believe their faith, then I hope that their hell yawns open for them whenever they close their eyes. I hope htye never sleep again, for terror of the fate that awaits them if they never wake up.
