[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Louisiana could become the first state in the country to categorize mifepristone and misoprostol — the drugs used to induce an abortion — as controlled dangerous substances, threatening incarceration and fines if an individual possesses the pills without a valid prescription or outside of professional practice.

Legislators in Baton Rouge added the provision as a last-minute amendment to a Senate bill that would criminalize an abortion if someone gives a pregnant woman the pills without her consent, a scenario of “coerced criminal abortion” that nearly occurred with one senator’s sister.

A pregnant woman obtaining the two drugs “for her own consumption” would not be at risk of prosecution. But, with the exception of a health-care practitioner, a person helping her get the pills would be.

Louisiana already bans both medication and surgical abortions except to save a patient’s life or because a pregnancy is “medically futile.” Lawmakers just rejected adding exceptions for teenagers under 17 who become pregnant through rape or incest.[/quote]

What makes them hate women (and girls) so much?

I write it on here a lot, but it applies, and it’s not hyperbole. Women aren’t people in the GOP. We’re made of clay and Adam’s rib. We are non entities. We are there to serve men and our children. We are not, under any circumstances, to have our own inner life or plans, especially not for our bodies. [/quote]

This exactly. Women are seen as replaceable helpmates by most evangelicals. If one dies in childbirth, you can just find another who might even be better at serving you than the first.

We aren't whole people in their eyes, and I'm saying this as a non-evangelical, progressive Christian. These evangelicals and conservatives are not people you want deciding your daughters' fates. [/quote]
