In Alabama, Georgia and Ohio, you can't harvest organs from somebody who died without their consent - but you can force an 11 year old rape victim to have her rapists child without her consent.
In short, even a corpse in AL, GA, and OH has more rights over it's body than do women and children.

Women best be taking this seriously. Republicans hate that you have rights, you liberals who think you have a say in what happens to your body!

Fight back!

and take care of it for the rest of its life.

That last part was a joke. The state doesn't care about babies or life. Just control.

1989, LA County Women’s Hospital, ward 5L (labor and delivery) or 5 Hell as we fondly called it. 12 year old girl, 9 months pregnant with her father’s baby, in labor, sucking her thumb and clutching a teddy bear.
30 years later I am as horrified as I was the day I witnessed it.
This is what they want.

years? She was a female and she might make a good president. She might make a good leader. She might stand for more rights for women.
