Despite pleas from Democrats and gut-wrenching testimony from doctors and rape survivors, a GOP-controlled legislative committee rejected a bill that would have added cases of rape and incest as exceptions to Louisiana’s abortion ban.
“It’s disgusting to me that we have a society where we can’t make exceptions in a situation where a young girl’s innocence has been taken away in the most vile way… and now she’s impregnated and somebody, somewhere, wants to force a nine, 10, 11, 12, 13-year-old child to have a baby for the monster that took away her innocence?” Knox said.
The fundamental disconnect is that they believe a fetus is a human life.
So to them, you’d be asking for legal permission to do a murder so you don’t have to be responsible for a child. I’m not saying it is correct, but it is internally consistent.
Because these issues… what? What is the justification?I have no idea. Fucking rape and incest?!

“Um, yeah. That would be us.” – Republicans.
They want women to be brood mares for the state. That’s it, that’s all.
Them military numbers aren’t gonna pump themselves up, amirite?

Consistent on the topic of abortion. One second after birth those lives aren’t quite so precious anymore.
