Woman Live Tweets Abortion
A Florida woman rocked the blogosphere when she decided to live tweet her abortion. After taking the RU-486 pill, which induces a miscarriage, Angie Jackson created a You Tube video justifying her decision in order to “demystify abortions for other women.” After experiencing multiple medical complications during her first pregnancy, Jackson decided she would not have any more children. Despite using birth control, she became pregnant yet again. Jackson says she is astonished by the backlash but asserts she is not ashamed.

Enjoy. Links to all our videos are posted here. Send your favorites, and they just might pop up on next week's VVR.
