"Just curious, do you fit the victim's profile? Has the father of your children left you? Do you sleep with married men and expect they will leave their wives and family if you become pregnant? If so you probably should buy a gun and be ready to defend yourself in case the next sperm-donor refuses to support you."
Just curious, did Laci Peterson or Lori Hacking fit the profile?

...According to the (Washington) Post's year-long investigation, at least 1,367 pregnant women and new mothers — not including women from 13 states that do not record such figures — have been murdered since 1990. A Maryland study highlighted by the Post declared, "A pregnant or recently pregnant woman is more likely to be a victim of homicide than to die of any other cause."

Thanks...those things came to mind immediately, but my brain is so Swiss-cheesed these days I didn't think to google and post that stuff myself. I remember hearing those stats, too. It's enough to make someone as hormonally unbalanced as me even more paranoid. Hence my remarks about buying a gun.
