My God this is a bad take. On just about every point.

Definitely. Check out for example Texas suing the Biden administration for requiring them to provide abortions in the case of medical emergencies.

The only point here is that no one has investigated WHY the a 10 year old rape victim was not assisted in Ohio. It is an important question for women in need of services and for service providers.

Ok, then in light of your factual assumptions: I am in fact a lawyer. I am capable of reading the statute. And there is no way in hell I would be able to give a doctor in Ohio comfort (particularly anything approaching certainty) that the procedure, done in Ohio, would be legal (at least not until the patient did in fact develop life-threatening, or major-bodily-function-threatening, complications). And what kind of twisted mind would want to force a 10 year old to continue to carry their rapistтАЩs baby unless and until such circumstances existed?
