    Isn't that why we fund planned parenthood?

    They should go to their local doctor or planned parent hood and receive services. If you are raped, you should surely get yourself checked out. Not only for pregnancy, but STD's or even vaginal damage. Planned Parenthood is extremely discrete and deals with rape at the victim level. Why does the left think women are too dumb to know what to do if they are raped?

    What, force an abortion? No one is forcing them to get an abortion.

    No one is forcing them to abort or keep the child. This is just hyperbolic rhetoric.

    Yes, I understand that but the *good* part of this is he said it aloud. Now, rational people can think about his "value" to their state after saying something like that.

    Trump said something about disinfectants and UV lights inside the body. He did NOT tell anybody to ingest or insert any of that into their body.

    Trump said something about "taking your country back" and "don't let them steal your country" or something close to that and it lead to a riot at our own US Capitol!

    Like it or not, words matter and vehemently defend everyone's Freedom of Speech (even those I don't agree with; ESPECIALLY those I don't agree with). However, I think it's irresponsible for an authority figure (like Trump was and Abbott and DeSantis) to make comments these kinds of comments because their words have more weight and DO influence people.

    There is nothing in the bill that says that a rape victim or anyone for that matter can't get an abortion. Saying otherwise is a blatant lie!

    yep, they changed the time to 6 weeks, most do not even know they're pregnant until they miss their first period

    You mean about killing babies? And no, the plural does not. Still wrong. One link does not make it plural. Liberal spin machine.

    One of the most stupidest statements of all time, they will eliminate rapists. :)

    Still more concerned than states with strict gin control. At least women have a chance against a rapist there.

    You literally said the right is forcing them to have their rapist baby and yet say they have 6 weeks from time of inception. If you are raped and worried about the possibility, there is always plan B if you worried about a stigma. However, any women who is raped should see a doctor REGARDLESS is there could be substantially more issues that a pregnancy.

    False, he was talking about severe deformities.

    His full quote that you very dishonesty edited: (your edits are in bold)
    [Third trimester abortions are] done in cases where there may be severe deformities. There may be a fetus that’s nonviable. So in this particular example, if a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen, the infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired. And then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.

    Sad to see you resort to this type of debate strategy

    You can't be sure Abbott doesn't have a plan to get all pedophiles and murderers off the streets at the same times he sweeps away all rapists."

    The pro-lifers stepped over the line when they force a woman to carry her rapist's baby.
