I find myself partially in the “what was he thinking” camp while also sympathizing with Mike’s situation.

Micheal E. Lopez made some pretty good analogies, and for me some commenters’ dismissive attitude because “no force was involved” seems way off the mark. No entity has greater access to, or employs it as readily, as the state. And that is precisely the force that was threatened by the pregnant woman.
