Self-administered abortions should be illegal. Trying to abort a 5 month fetus on your own is crazy and is going to wind up getting women killed or sterilized. It could also damage (not kill) a fetus and result in a live birth of a gravely injured child. There’s no way the government can look the other way, regardless of the circumstances. I wouldn’t be surprised if every single state has a law against this. Of course this whole situation is a great argument in support of public subsidies for abortions. Desperate people do desperate things.
