I'm being attacked for posting an abortion meme on Facebook

of the Statue Of Liberty crying. Does France really restrict abortion to three months?? Is that fucking real?!

WTF? People are attacking me saying we should send the statue back. This is so upsetting!

Abortion is legal in France and is now a guaranteed constitutional right:
Legality
Abortion is legal upon request up to 14 weeks after conception. After that, two physicians must certify that the abortion is necessary to prevent:
Injury to the pregnant woman's physical or mental health
Risk to the pregnant woman's life
The child from suffering from a severe, incurable illness
