A pregnant Ji Yeqing had her house stormed by Chines authorities. While her husband was being beaten down, she was dragged down a flight of stairs and brought to a hospital. Upon awakening, she discovered she had undergone an abortion while unconscious. This is apparently done due to the Chinese "1 child law", because she was pregnant with her second child. China is the only country where the female suicide rate is significantly higher than the male suicide rate. This is more than likely due to China's "1 child law". Is this law just? The Chinese government claims it is to regulate the male/female ratio.
