I bet rapists will be pleased with these antI abortion laws

[xmas74]

Women will choose to not report rape for fear of follow up by law enforcement.

1. Just another way to make women

the criminal in a rape case. My guess is that if she reports a rape, a woman will be subject to a pregnancy test by the state, to ensure that the defense has a new stick to beat her with should she become pregnant.

2. It will be sad indeed if the number of rapes go up in states where abortion is banned.

What about those who do get reported do women receive emergency Contraception if they were not using it at the time of the rape?

These emboldened laws are nothing more than a way to CONTROL women.

3. Women are also going to fear going to the hospital ER

if they are having a miscarriage, for fear of them calling the police on her and accusing her of inducing her own abortion.

It's sick. It's frightening. I just can't believe we are having this conversation in the year 2019.

4. This is already happening.

5. Eventually, if it came to it.

Right now the law itself is illegal.

Vote Democrat to Make sure it always is. We lost a lot of ground in the supreme court because people didn’t.

6. In Alabama, even if the rapist is caught & convicted...

...his prison sentence will be only of tiny fraction of that of an abortion doctor caring for the woman he raped.

7. It's striking that the men who caused these

women to become pregnant bear absolutely no responsibility. At the very least men should face the same legal jeopardy as the women they impregnated.

Start with prison, fines, vasectomy, put their names on a public list of paternity offenders. Certainly these men should be paying child support for their offspring that the state forced the woman to bear, as well as financial support for her loss of wages while raising that unplanned child.

All those men politicians who are so gleefully punishing women should be voting to pony up mega financial support bills to pay for the costs of raising their state mandated children until adulthood. Where's the money!

11. It's war on women

[Yavin4]

8. The doctor who perform the abortion gets a longer jail sentence than the rapist.

Unreal.

[SummerSnow]

10. Trumps Amerikka.

9. Imagine if she had the baby and her rapist demands to have visits with his child. omg

12. As of this time

Rapists do not have parental rights in Missouri. That's something we did do the right way.
