Pro-Life Republicans in South Carolina propose a bill to give the death penalty to a woman for having an abortion

At some point you have to wonder if they are trying to out-crazy each other for limited Fox News screen time, or they ARE really this crazy.

Proposed SC bill could make abortion a death penalty eligible offense

COLUMBIA, S.C. (WMBF) -South Carolina legislators are hearing a bill that would make abortion punishable by death.

Abortion is currently legal in South Carolina, as the state’s Supreme Court has vetoed all proposed legislation to restrict abortions within the state. The Court’s 3-2 decision allows abortion to remain legal in the state until 20 weeks of pregnancy.

The new bill, “South Carolina Prenatal Equal Protection Act of 2023,″ was pre-filed on Dec. 15, 2022. Following the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, Republican leaders have been hoping to reinstate a pre-Roe ban on almost all abortions at six weeks of pregnancy.

The bill seeks to amend the state constitution to recognize life as an individual person “from the moment of fertilization” and to define “person” to include an unborn child at any stage of development.

    If you a) support the death penalty, and b) believe abortion is murder, then this bill is morally and logically consistent. But the inherent absurdity should make you question your beliefs.

    Pro life people are pro-forced birth, nothing more. The overwhelming majority don’t actually give a shit about life, as demonstrated here.

  3. Alby says:

    The latest figures I could find are that 60% of abortions are provided to women who already have children. So they want to create a lot of motherless children.

    But these ghouls are on the record about wanting babies born so their Jesus humpers can adopt them, so we know their evil motive. They’re no better than Putin.

    These men hate women so they are happy to have women gone. Let’s shrink the population down!

      Yes. It would certainly seem that way. Ir at least, they hate the fictional woman that they imagine is using abortion as her primary means of birth control. And as far as the rest of women are concerned they simply don’t care what happens to them.

      “These men hate women”

      There are lots of women in the hater coalition. Red states wouldn’t be red without women voting Republican. We even have one on the Supreme Court.
