Ah: No, the #Alabama ruling didn't declare embryos to be children, as any reading of the actual ruling would easily show.
In fact, the ruling went out of its way to stress that it wasn't making any deep or broad declaration.
Once again, there's social turmoil over what's either misunderstanding or misinformation. Sadly, I suspect there are plenty of bad actors who know they're spreading lies, but find the drama to be in their own interests.
