Criticism and commentary: Lomas' "Abortion Limits Create Nightmare for Parents of Stillborn baby"

As I was going through my classmates' blogs I came across an original editorial/commentary from Megan Lomas titled "Abortion Limits Create Nightmare for Parents of Stillborn Baby." After reading the first paragraph I sat in shock that the doctors rejected the Mahaffey's request to be induced due to a House Bill. House Bill Two includes multiple bans or restrictions when it comes to abortions. I am certain that House Bill Two has its advantages but in this case it seemed unfair and inhumane in certain points, However I do agree with Ms. Lomas that things should be looked over and revised. A little tweaking here and there can make a huge change especially in this case. Having to wait three days for a mother to give birth to her son when she knows her son will not make it out alive seems extremely outrageous. Things happen in life that sometimes cannot be controlled which makes me think that having permanent restrictions on things like birth should be flexible. 

On a criticizing note, I would of like to have seen the positives of having a bill such as House Bill Two and not just why it should be revised, even though I completely agree. I feel like having something good to say about it will make it look as if your not just pointing out the negatives and that it clearly looks like you took time to consider the opposing viewpoints. This way it seems like you have something to argue about because you have all the information and not just because you think it is ridiculous, which again I completely agree with it being ridiculous. Over all I definitely agree with Ms. Lomas editorial/commentary and think she had reasons to consider a revaluation on House Bill Two. 

Texas, slow your roll cowboy.

We are in the forth month of the year 2016 and 11 executions have occurred in the united states. Out of those 11 executions more than half of them have been from the state of Texas alone. As of April sixth, Texas went through with its' sixth execution. Whether some of those 11 deserved it, who knows. Texas should take a step back and realize either that they are jumping to conclusion or its' citizens are awful human beings. Just over two weeks ago another man was executed, making him the fifth person to be executed in Texas. Out of 11 executions throughout 50 states, how did one state manage to execute more than half. 

I say Texas should take a step back but they really need to take a step back. Don't think they should? lets see if you still disagree after this. Texas' first execution was on January 20th, and the most recent execution was on April 6th. There is a total of 78 days between the two dates. In those 78 days, six people have been executed. That averages out to one execution every 13 days. About every two weeks someone is going to be injected with a lethal dose of pentobarbital. I can't speak for everyone but I would rather do my time than be injected and slowly start fading away to your death.

Texas state and local government should slow down and think about their system. They should sit down and ask themselves rather an injection of pentobarbital is required or if time can heal them. They should rethink their procedures in the court house and introduce new ways of punishment that wouldn't make Texas feel like a horrible place to become a citizen or a place where its' citizens won't feel unsafe.
