Bereaved mom not criminal

For shame! For shame! A society that has allowed the intentional killing of more than 40 million babies because of a pretty name, "choice," has hauled before the court a young mother overcome with grief at the death of her baby boy. What hypocrisy! Yes, the choices she made that day resulted in the death of her child, but she made them innocently, without intent to do harm. They may have been unwise and a lapse of judgment, but they were not criminal. Have we lost all proportion?
