VA GOP candidate: No incest exception for abortion because sometimes it’s ‘voluntary’

A Republican candidate running for an open seat in Congress representing Virginia has defended his stance against abortion in all cases by stating that even incest can sometimes be “voluntary,” according to The Washington Times.

Hello, Dumb shit: Anti incest laws are to PROTECT unborn children from genetic defects due to inheriting the same defective genes from both parents.

Whether incest is voluntary or not -- which is bullshit in and of itself -- if you assbackards GOP hack really cared about children, then you would make sure that the unborn are protected from having double defective genes delivered to them.

Jesus H. Christ...when you think you have heard it all...another Neanderthal with an (R) behind his/her name comes forward with even dumber shit!

A woman might have been culpable in a case of incest so all women must be forced to carry to term as punishment.

Goes along with his notions on birth control and birth defects. A woman who dodged the consequences of her "bad" behavior by having an abortion is going to be punished down the line by having a disabled child.

Unreal...and a disabled child is the ultimate punishment for being a really, really bad woman.

Sick...how horribly sick.

1 generation, though they can show up in 1. But imo, it is the power differential like in statutory rape.

There is enough of this happening without dumb promotion such as having laws saying incest is natural.
