A North Carolina mom criticized Twitter and its regulations after she came across a poster promoting abortion with a picture of her severely disabled daughter splashed across it.
Natalie Weaver reported the hateful tweet posted by user @OBSIDIANSMOAK this week.
The reported message first read: 'It is okay to think that every child matters however a lot of them do not hence the amnio test.'
The poster went on to say: '(It) should be a mandatory test and if it proves negative and the woman does not want to abort then all bills accrued after that is on her and the father.'

She can sue the poster for using her child’s image, not expect society to conform to a different paradigm with nonsense “hate speech” laws.
If “hate speech” laws are in existence and prosecuted, then disabled people should be covered by them.
Once “hate speech” laws are jettisoned, then what you say is correct.
