To these 2 chuckleheads in the NC state house life begins at conception.
Who wants to tell them that 25% of those lives don’t make it through no fault of the carrier?
These 2 idiots propose a constitutional amendment to the NC constitution that declares “LIFE BEGINS AT CONCEPTION”.
Yes, the capital letters are mandatory.
This would mean that a fertilized egg that has not been implanted would be recognized as a legal person. And anyone who “willfully destroys” that fertilized egg could be charged with first degree murder. Which is a capital offense. Which means the death penalty is on the table.
Beyond that, there is a deadly force clause. Which means that “any person has the right to defend the life of another person, ‘even by the use of deadly force if necessary'”.
Right.
Which makes all abortion providers liable to be assassinated because their killer(s) were only defending the life of another person. Meaning the fertilized egg that may or may not be in the uterus. And may or may not be more than 8 cells.
Every single health care provider would be at risk.
I’ve participated in abortions as the circulating nurse in the operating room.
And what about those 25% of concepted cells that fail to implant, or fail to grow, or reside in the fallopian tube where they are an active danger to the coman?
Would we then have marauders who are thugs sent out because someone was disappointed that there was a miscarriage?
Probably, we are in the South.
Eight people have been murdered in the US for providing abortion care. What about their rights?
Or does the miniscule, hard to see with a naked eye clump of cells trump all of our rights?
Is that it?
No, it is about control.
Because IUDs and other medication that work by limiting implantation would be on the chopping block in this insane bill.
So would birth control itself.
They will say that this is not about birth control or IUDs or IVF. Of course they will. Whatever to get this bill passed and in front of the largely unknowing public. And then it is open season on healthcare workers.
I did bring up the murder of a nurse and the attempted murder of a healthcare worker in a meeting of highly educated nurses this week. You know, the ones I wrote about last Tuesday? it was appropriate because we were talking about hospital safety. Yeah, no one blinked and they just went on to the next topic after saying that is why we have security guards.
