““does not condone harmful sexual risks for young people.”

Understand, he only thinks sex is something involving young women.

Also known as female genital mutilation, which is absolutely horrific and still a thing in parts of the world, including, although I could be mistaken, the U.S.

So I’m surprised that this asshole didn’t call for FGM while he had the opportunity.

“Bahrain, Belarus, Brazil, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Egypt, Guatemala, Haiti, Hungary, Iraq, Libya, Mali, Nigeria, Poland, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, United Arab Emirates, and Yemen co-signed the statement.”

Hahahaha…is there a non-neofascist autocratic farce of a state that doesn’t abuse its citizens human rights on that list or is it just me?

Yeah, thought so. Behold, Amurikkka, the company we now keep!!!

Do the math on why they hate women’s freedom and why there’s a correlation with them being tyrant states. 2 + 2…

There is one form of human life he does care about: the Donald J. Trump form. Everything else exists to stroke his fragile ego. Anything that doesn’t do that is an abomination to be eradicated.

As others have noted, he’s catering to his evangelical base and they have never hesitated to hypocritically denounce Muslims while simultaneously finding common cause with them when their interpretations of the same set of “holy” books are in alignment.

When women lose reproductive rights, they become second class citizens.

Just saying, “Bahrain, Belarus, Brazil, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Egypt, Guatemala, Haiti, Hungary, Iraq, Libya, Mali, Nigeria, Poland, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, United Arab Emirates, and Yemen”

does not scream human rights but especially not equal gender rights. In all of these countries women are seen as second class to their male counterparts. Sure women can get elected to office, sure women can work in many of these countries but the reality is that gender equity is woefully inadequite and unprotected in any of these countries let alone were both genders enjoy equal protection.

Also last time I checked, kids can divorce their guardians, can divorce their parents, so why does the word “family protective status” have anything to do with sexual freedom. An individual with individual rights gets to decide the type of sex and reproduction methods they want to enjoy.

It is just disgusting to see the US fall this far. Not a surprise with a clown wrapped in the american flag, the bible and an AR-15 though.

Women have been finding ways to terminate pregnancies since they realized what was happening to their bodies, and they will continue to do so. In some cases it’s a matter of life and death. What Trump wants to do is to eliminate safe abortions. They would rather have women die in back alleys than allow them to have control over their own bodies.

Exactly how many legal layers of bullshit does the Republican Party need for a BillBarr playground of nonsense?

There is a right to life that every human being has. Including women. They decide. The State may not presume to “represent” an entity that does not exist.

Women have the absolute human right to have sovereignty of their bodies just as we men do. That means women have the absolute human right to control all aspects of their ability to reproduce, or to choose not to. Any group, religion, state or nation that attempts to deny these rights or subvert them are totalitarian oppressors.
