OK, there’s a whole back-and-forth that we’re not going to get into, because the money quote is sitting right there. But just for reference, Leah Torres, M.D., “Nasty Woman OB/GYN,” had had enough of arguing about abortion:
Done.
Done catering to ignorance.
Done respecting different views when those views contradict facts.
Just done.
— Leah Torres, MD (@LeahNTorres) November 27, 2018
OK, we respect that; she’s done catering to those whose views contradict facts … like this one:
You seem to not understand that to become a child, a fetus has to develop. That’s why I asked.
— Jenn ???? (@gypsyglutton) November 28, 2018
And to become a fetus, one needs permission to reside in someone’s uterus and put that person’s health in jeopardy.
— Leah Torres, MD (@LeahNTorres) November 28, 2018
How is a clump of cells supposed to gain permission to reside in that uterus? It’s just a clump of cells.
This has to be the stupidest thing I've read all year… seriously.

Ha! You’ve seen NOTHING! This thread has been going for hours, each tweet from these people is stupider than the last!

So, you asked your mother to risk her life to give birth to you while in her womb?
— Jenn ???? (@gypsyglutton) November 28, 2018
OK. If you say so.
But that permission is consciously granted the instant the person engages in sexual intercourse.— Craig Cochrane (@ccochrane64) November 28, 2018
Of course Dr. Death thinks life requires a revocable permission ?

Please stop tweeting. The confidence people have in medical professionals is fragile enough without you tweeting moronic nonsense. https://t.co/LAgNzcBwwJ

Most inane statement I have read today.
Shame on you!— Mme. PB (@MmePB) November 28, 2018
That's idiocy even for a leftist idiot.
— Slingsandarrows1234 (@Slingsandarrow1) November 28, 2018
What a truly stupid thing to assert. The level of idiocy is remarkable. ??
— Professional Genius (@NeatTricks1) November 28, 2018
Not idiocy, evil. Don’t confuse the two.

Are you really a doctor or do you play one on Twitter?

Hang on; Torres has backup:
Women cannot be compelled to share the use of their respiratory/digestive/circulatory systems against their will. Much like govt can’t force you to donate a kidney. Permission is granted by woman not petitioned for by zygotes.

In political terms this is called "positive liberty."
What that means is simple: You get the rights that the elites (even if that is the mother, err fetus bearer)
and
only those rights.
It is arbitrary.
This makes life entirely arbitrary, contingent on a whim. https://t.co/KFFbabLiCn— The Myth of Scientific Certainty (@crbrendemuehl) November 28, 2018
It’s not all cold, calculated science, however; God does play a part:
When I helped juvenile females get court orders allowing them to have legal abortions without their parent's consent, I felt like I was on a mission from God.
