This is true but you won’t hear that on the MSM.

False. CNN told me that all red states will outlaw abortion completely, and in fact execute women who attempt it.

Michael Tracey has a bunch of tweets on this today. He is left-leaning, but basically trolls both sides of the aisle on everything.

Well the US, at a national level, doesn't have any restrictions one way or the other now....so I don't know if what you say is true, but there's definitely not a country that's less restrictive now.

God willing what I posted might change, but currently 20 weeks or a bit later is where most US states are at, most of Europe is at 17 weeks

European nations are more equivalent to US states. For example, France = Carolinas.

Recommend comparing European countries to level of U.S. 50 states

As of yesterday something like 20 something states (24?) banned abortion outright via trigger laws. I think you would agree that's more restrictive than the either map I or you provided.

Restrictions are relative. Most allow abortions.

Fact.

This map is old - Ireland voted to allow abortions up to 12 weeks - the law went into effect Jan 1, 2019

True, at least this applies to Ireland, Germany, Italy, and France. The rest I am not sure about.

Are those restrictions more or less restrictive than the states that just banned abortion outright via trigger laws?

Legal up to 36 months?

Do they allow post-birth abortions?
