"It’s not just a lone extremist: The bill has 21 co-sponsors in the state’s House of Representatives".
The “South Carolina Prenatal Equal Protection Act of 2023” would amend the state’s code of laws, redefining “person” to include a fertilized egg at the point of conception, affording that zygote “equal protection under the homicide laws of the state” — up to and including the ultimate punishment: death.
Fucking disgusting. Party of pro-life my ass. Thank god I live in NY where we don't have this bullshit.
Even though I complain that NY is expensive, you couldn't pay me to move to a red state.
UPDATE: George Carlin did a great bit on abortion in one of his stand ups, and it's so true.
Ok. Give deadbeat fathers and rapists the death penalty first. Men are usually the reason why Women consider abortion.
The government doesn't give a crap about those poor unborn children, They only care about popping out new slaves. The pro life goons stop caring as soon as the baby leaves the womb and women are always blamed when they struggle because " You should have kept your legs closed"
So what's next? Death penalty for women who see a future beyond the kitchen? The Jezebel spirits who won't submit to men? ( I've been called a Jezebel)
Honestly, as a childfree woman, I'd rather die than be a mother.
What happens if it’s a child who seeks the abortion? They’re going to pro-life that kid all the way to death to save a bundle of fn cells?
Can’t wait. 🍿😭
You need two people for a pregnancy. I vote to make this fair and propose that all men need to submit a sample to a nationwide DNA database and the man who caused the unwanted pregnancy also automatically gets the death penalty. He impregnated a woman who clearly wasn't ready for and didn't want a child - he could have gotten a vasectomy, used a condom or not have had sex after all, the slut! Off to the chopping block with him...
Wait, that's not what they meant?
More women need to wake up. They don’t view us as people. Hell they don’t even view us on the same level as household pets.
This shit is so short-sighted and confuses the hell out of me.
I've read time and time again that when abortion is illegal, the women who, by and large, are getting abortions in back alleys, are married women who already have children.
So what I'm reading here is, you have a mother of five who is now pregnant with her husband's sixth kid, they cannot afford this sixth kid, and so she seeks out an abortion. So, because she has an abortion, she is given the death penalty, and her husband is now a single dad of five kids.
Men really have no fucking sense. How many women have to die and leave their children motherless before men realize "Oh wait...I didn't think I would be the one to face consequences for this."
Republicans...
Republicans are just as batshit nuts, misogynistic and racist as the far left why am i not surprised.
I want to get out of this stupid hell country before it turns to real life Handmaids Tale
They just hate women. They just really don't like women having autonomy. They don't have the same smoke for children that are already alive and suffering. They don't have this much smoke for pedophiles. But I'm not surprised since I can bet you every dollar in my bank account that there is atleast one pedo who signed that bill.
They’re only a step away from jailing women who have miscarriages and survive, like in Ecuador.
rolling stone…i’m rolling my ryes right now. i’m counting 21 ZVM (and maybe some LVW??) in the South Caroline HOR.
