Since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last year, the state’s GOP-led Legislature has disbanded a maternal mortality committee, failed to expand postpartum Medicaid coverage and turned down federal grants for child care.

    It’s amazing the way “pro-lifers” don’t actually believe in a right to life. At all.

    This right here is what they really care about – judging and punishing people for having sex. They view pregnancy as a consequence and so abortion is escaping a consequence. It has nothing to do with the rights of the fetus, just persecuting the uterus.

    Because, after all, if you truly believed that pregnancy were a consequence, it would mean that you believe abortion should be legal for anyone that didn’t take action to “deserve” the pregnancy. It means the right to life is contingent on the choices made or not made by the pregnant person. And a right that can be washed away by the choices made by a stranger is no right at all.

    You just know if this guy got someone pregnant, he’d be driving them straight to the abortion clinic even if was across the country.

      Murder should never be legal. End of discussion.
