That’s what the GOP wants though, for women’s lives to become a sick game of roulette. Free state or Christian nationalist state? Big city that might have doctors or might not have doctors? Do you have enough money to get out if you find out your fetus doesn’t have kidneys, or do you get to carry to term and deliver a dying child? They call it “states rights” but what they mean is that women aren’t people and they always worth less than the contents of their uterus. |
Exactly. And may the child go on without carrying this forward while we remember for her. |
My sentiments are stronger worded in my head, but our feelings are the same. And deliver the hundreds of girls, literal girls under 18, currently carrying their rapist’s baby. I don’t think that’s a good thing at any age (or a “blessing” as the goopy brained monsters in the forced birther movement would say), but the idea of bearing a pregnancy to term when you’re a literal child and it could kill you adds layers of horror. |
The sadists love hurting kids too. Their depravity knows no bounds. |

Until it can be legislated at the national level. |
So we've got: Florida, Arizona, Montana - which other states have abortion ballots this time? |
Agree but not every state has a mechanism for a ballot referendum. I think this is the Montana ballot wording but not 100% sure. |
