Ending pregnancy is legal...only if you are a girl

thrudd writes "I am pro-life, but the double standard here is disgusting. "A 19-year-old East Texas man faces a life prison sentence for causing his teenage girlfriend to miscarry twins, even though she wanted to end the pregnancy....Erica Basoria acknowledged asking Flores to help end her pregnancy. But the 17-year-old can't be prosecuted because of her legal right to abortion."

I am against abortion, but I find it hard to see the REAL difference in terms of the law between the boyfriend and Planned Parenthood. At worst, he should have been charged with assault."
