How can anyone rationalize a child being born under those conditions? This family can’t even afford to take a week off from work, and now they have a baby that 100% is going to need government assistance to survive. Oh and pro birthers are working to cut that assistance as well. A whole family destroyed for what? Oh and states with exceptions for rape, health and incest don’t have a process to receive those exceptions. So even if you are raped and become pregnant, whelp good luck navigating a process that doesn’t exist before your third trimester.
It’s pretty simple. They want poor, uneducated constituents that they can brainwash into voting against their own best interests.
It’s really the only way the GOP has been able to survive.
I think this is exactly what Alito meant by the “domestic supply” of infants available for adoption.
Then when challenged on the lack of a process to seek exception the response to doctors is, “well we wouldn’t go after you. Trust us.”. Right…
For anyone wondering: 7th graders are usually 12-13 years old children!
