Travesty of a law show their true hatred for women is that the rapist may also sue anyone that helps his victim get an abortion. How twisted is that?

I was on another site and this woman was saying "So it’s your stance that a born pregnant woman should have the right to decide whether a non born baby is allowed to live?" And I just can't...I can't even say how stupid that is!

oh well...

The odd thing is that Repugs never intend for even one civil case to actually be brought into court. That would open it up to all sorts of cross suits, medical records fights, and civil rights challenges and the law would be exposed as a sham. So they want to scare tactic the providers while never actually expose the law to legal challenges.

Yet they have now awaken a rage and determination among a vast swath of the population, motivated Dems and Independents for the midterms that they might have been blase about before.

Seems like they may regret their 'victory' as it will lead to much bigger losses going forward.

Check out these numbers! YIKES!

“Various studies over the last two decades estimate that there are between 17,000 and 32,000 rape-related pregnancies in the United States each year. Recent federal and state laws are addressing the issue of parental rights and custody for the children conceived as a result of sexual assault.”
