And yet here we are in the US banning abortions and heading down the same road. Give women options if they don't want to carry a pregnancy to term and you won't have horrific acts like neonate abandonment.

You’ll notice a commonality between the assholes in Qatar, and the assholes here.

Ultra conservative religion.

I’m not sure if your last sentence was an aside or in reference to this case.
