Why the founding fathers didn’t mention abortion in the Constitution

The Constitution makes no mention of abortion, coincidentally it also makes no mention of… women.

I believe I posted it before, but I am sure it deserves a replay. Hugs

White Bully Chokes Out Racial Minority & Gets LIGHTER Punishment Than His Victim

This is the country the rabid right wants to create, where the white people get to attack and mistreat the non-white people.    The right wants a 1940s / 1950s world where blacks and minorities knew their place and stayed there.   We are losing what it means to be a country of laws and equal opportunities to become a raciest country of white privilege.  US apartheid?  Hugs

An Indian-American student who was bullied and choked out by one of his white classmates actually received a harsher punishment for the assault than the white student. The school blamed the Indian-American student for provoking the altercation even though videos show that he played no role in being the aggressor of the attack

“In a video circulating online, Shaan Pritmani can be seen being assaulted and choked by a white student in the cafeteria of Coppell Middle School in Texas on May 11. The video begins with the aggressor choking Shaan with his right arm before demanding him to stand up from his seat. “No, I’m not getting up,” Shaan replies. “There is literally no one sitting here.” The student then presses his elbow on Shaan’s neck from behind before choking him once again while dragging him away from the seat. Other students surrounding the two can be heard cheering.”

Heroic Congresswoman Relives Personal Trauma In Defense Of Abortion Rights

Democratic Georgia Rep. Lucy McBath gave an impassioned speech about her personal experience of the trauma of having to carry a miscarried baby for weeks before delivering the fetus. McBath told this story to defend abortion rights by saying that some states would imprison her for having failed pregnancies.

“Congresswoman Lucy McBath on Wednesday shared her own difficult experiences to point out how attacks on abortion rights by right-wing judges and legislators could impact what treatment doctors can provide to patients who, like her, endure miscarriage and stillbirth. The Georgia Democrat’s comments came during a U.S. House Judiciary Committee hearing entitled “Revoking Your Rights: The Ongoing Crisis in Abortion Care Access,” an event held as the country prepares for the Supreme Court to issue a final ruling expected to reverse Roe v. Wade. “For two weeks, I carried a lost pregnancy and the torment that comes with it,” McBath said. “I never went into labor on my own. When my doctor finally induced me, I faced the pain of labor without hope for a living child.””

THE WASHINGTON POST: Oklahoma lawmakers pass bill banning abortions after “fertilization”

Oklahoma lawmakers on Thursday passed a bill that would ban abortions from the moment of “fertilization,” which if signed into law would effectively prohibit almost all abortions in the state.

The bill is similar in its enforcement mechanism to one that was signed into law in Texas last year, allowing civilians to file lawsuits against those who perform or seek an abortion.

Under the Oklahoma bill, those who could be punished include anyone who “performs or induces” an abortion; anyone who “knowingly engages in conduct that aids or abets the performance or inducement of an abortion,” including paying for one; and anyone who even “intends to engage” in either of the two actions above.

The bill defines “fertilization” as the moment a sperm meets the egg. It explicitly allows for the use of the Plan B pill and emergency contraception, and exempts from its definition of abortion any procedure to “save the life or preserve the health of the unborn child,” to “remove a dead unborn child caused by spontaneous abortion,” or to remove an ectopic pregnancy.

The bill passed the Oklahoma state legislature on a 73-16 vote Thursday, and it heads to Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt’s (R) desk. If he signs it into law, it would go into effect immediately.

The Supreme Court is expected to issue its decision later next month on the fate of Roe v. Wade, the 1973 decision guaranteeing a nationwide right to abortion. In anticipation of the court overturning Roe, Republicans in dozens of states have rushed to write laws that would severely restrict abortion access.

On Thursday, Planned Parenthood vowed to take the state of Oklahoma to court over the legislation, saying the ban “must be stopped.”

“The Oklahoma legislature just passed a total ban on abortion, enforced by private citizens,” the pro-choice group tweeted. “This ban will take effect as soon as the governor signs the bill, making Oklahoma the first state to outlaw abortion entirely — even while Roe v. Wade still stands.”

Stitt has already signed into law a ban on abortions in the state for pregnancies past six weeks, doing so the day after the stunning leak of a Supreme Court draft opinion that would overturn Roe v. Wade. At the time, he said he wanted Oklahoma to be “the most pro-life state in the country,” which was in part why the state’s new ban included no exceptions for rape or incest.

Democratic Oklahoma state representatives had sounded the alarm over the bill. Among some of the concerns they raised were that it could affect in vitro fertilization.

“Looking at the language, it’s hard to see how it wouldn’t affect in vitro fertilization because it talks about as soon as the ovum and the sperm meet, and the egg is fertilized, that means that’s a person,” Oklahoma state Rep. Emily Virgin (D) said, according to KOKH News. “That’s what happens with in vitro fertilization, you create embryos.”

Oklahoma state Rep. Wendi Stearman (R), the bill’s sponsor, said IVF was not included in the bill, as it “would be tough” to prove that an abortion had occurred in that situation.
