I would assume the facility.

You do realize that the disposal of fetal remains was highly regulated before this change, don't you?

I would like to see it taken a step further to make people think about the step they are about to take. A death certificate should be issued and the mother should be asked which burial arrangements she prefers and be informed that she will be given a copy of the death certificate.

Explain to me how an aborted fetus outside of the mother is part of her body.

That makes no sense. Can you connect the "logic dots" as to how you arrived at that conclusion? Is it the slippery slope fallacy?


Governor Abbot's quote:
quote:

“I believe it is imperative to establish higher standards that reflect our respect for the sanctity of life,” he said in the email, which The Tribune published in full. “This is why Texas will require clinics and hospitals to bury or cremate human and fetal remains.”

“I don’t believe human and fetal remains should be treated like medical waste and disposed of in landfills,” Mr. Abbott added
.


Yes, I believe that may open the door to redefining what constitutes "human remains". Why wouldn't partial human remains meet that criteria?

Should there be a difference in disposal requirements of human parts if you believe the rest of the person is dead or alive? Serious question...disastrous car fire, only a few fragments of tissue/bone remain. Are those required to be buried?

I believe all human remains/bit and pieces regardless of gestational status should be handled as potentially infectious and disposed of appropriately. If the family wishes go above and beyond that, then so be it. Why should government dictate what to do with a body beyond that?

This will create new companies and new jobs in Texas.

For $5 they will bury the fetus. Could get 3-4 dozen in a casket

Economic proliferation.

This is dumb. I'm not pro life or pro choice.

Is there any way this goes to the Supreme Court through lawsuit?

When a population tells the constant lie that "abortion is murder," this is the kind of crazy length they'll go to, ironically, in a bizarre attempt to prove—to themselves more than anyone else—that they aren't crazy.

This is just crazy. Pure crazy.

Death certificates will often include a date of birth.

Since it will never have been born what will you write in?
