The Straight Dope on Masks

For some reason, a few MAGAts got tired of buffing their muskets and decided to weigh in on scientific matters that they don't understand. Don't be too hard on them…

Just wow

  @DonLew87 - Trump doubles down under oath on his 'grab 'em' statement. Basically says that's how 'stars' roll. All the 'stars' out there, what say you? From Trump's deposition…

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.
