According to this new Arizona law - I've been pregnant 375 times so far!

Arizona bill would declare pregnancy 2 weeks before conception


http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/04/04/arizona-bill-would-declare-pregnancy-2-weeks-before-conception/

A measure that passed Arizona’s Senate claims that it would ban abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy, but experts say that the bill is far more restrictive, effectively banning abortions after 18 weeks and declaring that a woman could be pregnant 2 weeks before she even had sex.

Arizona’s HB 2036 takes Nebraska’s 20-week abortion ban one step further by starting the clock on pregnancies at the woman’s last last menstrual period, which could be two weeks before fertilization.

Sending uses one could be a felony. Could send anonymously of course.

The GOP are little dictators. Even is you speak up to one of them you will be assaulted by their supporters, ejected or arrested and strip searched. They are nasty bastards. And you really have to find them first since they play "hide and seek" or their town halls are held in private homes. They are little cowards. Its turning in to Sheriff Of Nottingham and America.

You can see creeping totalitarianism with the GOP by all the anti free speech and anti assembly laws they are passing. Virginia is the best example where you cannot carry a protest or even speak on state capitol grounds. The womens silent protest over the rape bill had a couple thousand from what I heard. It was not filmed or published widely but it was very well policed. So if you spoke up you would probably be arrested.

Thanks to the GOP we have free speech zones moved miles from the public now. We have laws being passed so you have to get permits far in advance. The crackdown on OWS is very telling. And Denver is trying to pass an ordinance that would making sleeping in public a crime. It is also aimed at OWS. The whole country should be a free speech zone.

If women came out an protested somewhere in large numbers they would be assaulted by the police like OWS was and is.

What's next? Will women's bodies be offered for sale on the stock exchange?

Seems to be going in that direction. Just let it all out hang there, GOP.

I could be off a bit. There could have been months that I popped more than one out of my ovaries and perhaps, for all I know, I could be putting out nothing. It's an estimate.

'.....declaring that a woman could be pregnant 2 weeks before she even had sex'?

I'm curious to see how that would work. These people need to take basic biology again.
