Unlike previous legislation on abortion, House Bill 565 would consider an unborn human a person. The bill would also make no exceptions for rape or incest.
The legislation is sponsored by state Reps. Nino Vitale and Ron Hood.
"We make it very clear in the state of Ohio we consider the unborn child a person just like you, me or any other person that has a right to life, said Hood.

(25,839 posts)The first think I want to ask those men is, "Have you ever been pregnant?"
Plus, as has already been pointed out, there are circumstances where continuing the pregnancy will kill the mother. Yes, they are a bit rare, but they exist.
Meanwhile, guns are still available to all.
If these fuckers would fully fund prenatal care, early childhood education, medical care for all its citizens, then I'd be a bit mollified. But only a bit.

(51,582 posts)I saw a lot of signs yesterday making this point. The gun enthusiasts are fine with killing another person or an animal but not with an unborn fetus. Hypocrisy abounds! MEN want to keep women barefoot and pregnant meanwhile 99% of violence by guns is done by MEN! No wonder the world (ruled by mostly men for thousands of years) is in such a sad, dismal state. Very disappointed but not surprised.

(24,761 posts)Those excuses for men want to punish women for losing their babies by shifting the burden of proof on women--for something beyond their control! (that's how we ought to counter such extremist legislation).
