The pope says ’ You must not breed like rabbits ’ . CANNOT USE CONTRACEPTIVES .
Requiring a second visit at least three days later for the procedure would be an entirely other thing if it didn’t mean having to run the gauntlet of “pro-life” screamers twice.
The “Bee Hive” holier-than-thou-and-everyone don’t realize that America cannot feed their people with “real food” as it is, which is why GMO and other scientific modifications are necessary to produce cheap enough grits for everyone AS IT IS NOW. What do they think is going to happen when rabbit-like un-controlled breeding creates a gigantic sub-culture to rob from the middle class (the rich being surrounded by personal guards)? Does anyone read “Brave New World” any more? Or “1984”? Probably not, as the politicization of education has caused these books to disappear from high school reading lists, in favor of “approved” books meant to steer folks toward “correct” thinking. By piling one restriction on top of several others, legal abortions will be hamstrung by an abundance of these petty rules meant to deter women’s ownership of their own ovaries. Consider this: what would be the result if millions of American women had hysterectomies to remove their ovaries–just in protest? Would these political religionistas pass laws to outlaw the procedure also? Ad absurdum…
These legislators need to be stoned in the public square…they are taking women back to chattels and property which is Sharia Law 2.0 faux christian’ BS!
Fine, and frightening piece. I would like to point out, however, that your references to pregnant “people” are wildly inappropriate, and just plain wrong. People don’t get pregnant, women get pregnant. To talk about abortions without referencing the women who need them serves to erase women from our own stories, our own lives.
“Two GOP congresswomen have officially withdrawn their support for a proposed 20-week abortion ban that has recently sparked controversy within the Republican Party, asking to be removed as co-sponsors from the legislation.”

Starting to see cracks in the wall? Or maybe an end to Republican Mindless Lock-Step Bullshit…

I think this is an absolutely fabulous idea, and we should extend it to ALL medical procedures. Having a heart attack? I suggest you wait 72 hours to make sure it’s the real thing. In an automobile accident? We’ll have to wait 72 hours before we treat that spurting artery poking out of your neck, you know, just to be “safe.” What a crock of crap! There is virtually no other medical procedure which has been singled out by politicians. I’ve another idea; how about you bluenoses mind your own business, and stop interfering in a medical decision best left to the woman and her physician? Stop the bullshit, please.
