Why do these men think they will continue to be able to control women? I await the expected court orders finding this completely unconstitutional and unenforceable. Vote next November, our republic depends on it!
Excuse me.
It’s not “the womb”. It’s not a thing you can regulate, sir.
It is a fetus inside a woman. The woman is a person in fact, not based on an arbitrary and minimalist definition you make up. She is a citizen to whom government is subordinate. As for the fetus, it does not acknowledge your authority over it. It didn’t vote for you. You cannot claim to care more about it than the mother.
Keep your filthy, perverted ideology to yourself.
Simply stated, based on current SC law, this is unconstitutional.
“We are protecting more women, we are protecting more children,” said House Judiciary B Committee Chairman Andy Gipson, a Braxton Republican.
Oh, yes, kind sir, protect us weak women, for we are either too childishly feeble to decide for ourselves or wicked sluts who deserve your punitive judgment…
Or, fuck you, you twisted misogynist. And when you can honestly say you’d save a fetus from a burning building and leave a newborn baby in the other wing to die if you can only reach one, you can call what’s in pregnant women’s wombs “children.” Fuck you.
It’s never “Mississippi awaits governors signature to expand and improve health insurance.”
This Braxton fellow who claims to have the interests of women and children at heart ought to be called out.
I’m sure this will all change under president Romney.
In addition to all the other disgusting evil things about this bill, there is a long list of really bad fetal anomalies for which you can’t get definitive testing before roughly 15-18 weeks. Women have been going through hell to comply with legal hoops in those situations for decades already.
So, if enforced, a law like this one would lead to the termination of pregnancies for countless wanted fetuses with false-positive early test results, and to the birth of horrifically deformed infants who would live for a few hours or weeks in unimaginable pain. These assh*les piss me right off.
There’s no doubt some of these Mississippi men took their cues about what is meant by reproductive rights by the all male panel called to talk about contraception at a House hearing. Soon to be ex House member Issa chaired it.
Hope springs eternal in the human breast;
Man never is, but always to be blessed:
The soul, uneasy and confined from home,
Rests and expatiates in a life to come.
