    If you are wondering why, she said this, it’s part of a pattern of spreading misinformation about abortions that has been happening as long as people want to keep other people from having them.

    The goal is to scare vulnerable women away from the resources that can help them and to make it easier to prosecute anyone who has been found to help them by conflating them with drug dealers.

    It adds to the cloud of confusion that desperate women must cut through in order to gain access to the resources they need, and for some of those women, it will push the window out too far for them to have an abortion that they can afford, or cause them to give up, and just have the baby they don’t want, damn the costs.

    Since they see this as saving a baby’s life, they don’t have any ethical issues whatsoever with lying like this.

      Right so then she is just a dumb evil cunt that doesn’t deserve to be anywhere near public office. Got it.

      All these glaringly obvious issues that will never be taken care of because we give people too much freedom. That statement alone should get her fired and not allow her to be in office anywhere ever again.
