It’s like two people who don’t exist are interacting
this is a video of two people who accidentally find out that they’re both extraterrestrials after they realize they speak the same language unheard anywhere on earth and jimmy fallon realizes what is happening and he tries to put a stop to it because if the government finds out about it they’ll kill all three of them
this. this is stimming. on TV. I am amazed and delighted
My liberal friends are complaining that there’s no exceptions for medical necessity and direct threat to the mother’s health/ life.
Right, because abortion is never necessary to save the mother’s life. Other medical interventions, sure! And those are perfectly legal, no matter what the pro-choice rhetoric says.
Abortion kills a child. We don’t need “exceptions” to a ban on killing children.
Oh I know, it’s not you, it’s all the misinformation out there. Here’s a good video on why abortion is not necessary to save the life of the mother, from an actual former abortionist.
And if you want to understand more about how abortions are performed, you can see more on this website (no graphic imagery).
The Heartbeat Bill recently passed by the Ohio House (currently on its way to the Senate) has had a LOT of not just bad press, but actively deceitful press. Here is the link to the full text of the bill. I’m going to bust a few myths here:
Myth #1: An abortionist who violates this ban would face the death penalty.
From the actual bill:
Sec. 2919.195.
Whoever violates this division is guilty of performing or
inducing an abortion after the detection of a fetal heartbeat, a
felony of the fifth degree.
A 5th degree felony in Ohio carries a prison sentence of typically 6-12 months. No death penalty.
Myth #2: A pregnant person who violates this ban would face the death penalty.
Sec.
2919.198
A pregnant woman on whom an
abortion is performed or induced in violation of section 2919.193, 2919.194, or 2919.195 of the
Revised Code is not guilty of violating any of those sections;
is not guilty of attempting to commit, conspiring to commit, or
complicity in committing a violation of any of those sections;
and is not subject to a civil penalty based on the abortion
being performed or induced in violation of any of those
sections.
IN FACT, the woman who has an illegal abortion can sue the abortionist for the wrongful death of her child (Sec.
2919.199.)
Myth #3: There are no exceptions for the health or life of the mother.
Sec. 2919.195
Division (A) of this section does not apply to a
physician who performs a medical procedure that, in the
physician’s reasonable medical judgment, is designed or intended
to prevent the death of the pregnant woman or to prevent a
serious risk of the substantial and irreversible impairment of a
major bodily function of the pregnant woman.
Feel free to let me know if you hear any other myths about this bill.
Glad to hear fact checking, though my respect for Ohio is diminished.
Incremental progress is still progress! I’m very hopeful that this bill can make it through the courts and help set better precedent.
