‘A 1-year-old could get an abortion under this’ bill: far-right GOP lawmaker

A far-right Republican state senator explaining his opposition to a bill that would grant an abortion exception for rape or incest told his fellow lawmakers, a “1-year-old could get an abortion under this.”Senator Bill Eigel, a pro-Trump Republican who is also running to become Missouri's next governor

dirthawker0,

If a 1 year old got pregnant, I think you should be more concerned about arresting whoever TF impregnated a 1 year old, rather than whether it’s a crime for the 1 year old to have an abortion.

Do these people even remotely understand that the younger a pregnant person is, actually makes an abortion more necessary? Beyond the health demands of pregnancy and childbirth on a young person, do they really want 10 and 12 year olds, or even younger, being mothers? (Don’t bother answering; I can guess.)

Nightwingdragon,

do they really want 10 and 12 year olds, or even younger, being mothers?

Yes. Don’t forget we have had congressmen say that a 10 year old rape victim not only should have been forced to give birth, but to raise the rapist’s child too so she can understand the “blessing” she received. I believe it was a West Virginia congressman that classified 12 year olds being married as “just a way of life”, while another said something along the lines of “i know people who got married at 12. They’re still married.”

So yes, they have gone on record saying exactly that.

dirthawker0,

I’d forgotten that quote. 🤮

Nudding,

Lot of child marriage in the States, I’m not surprised.

“1-year-old could get an abortion under this.”

“Odd take, but okay Senator, how old do you think a raped child or a child victim of incest should have to be before they are allowed to get an abortion? What age should a child victim have to look forward to, under your version of this legislation, that they know they could abort their rapists baby?”

how old do you think a raped child or a child victim of incest should have to be before they are allowed to get an abortion?

just to add: these are the same thing. A minor whose the victim of incest was also raped.

Tell me you don’t understand the basic anatomy and physiology you are regulating without telling me…

ATDA,

If a 1yr old got pregnant… Somehow… Wouldn’t you need to perform an abortion immediately simply so they didn’t die?

Oh wait they don’t even care.

BradleyUffner,

If somehow a one year old got pregnant I would totally expect her to be able to get an abortion. This just seems like common sense, no?

Sexual access to your own daughter is really the corner stone of the Abrahamic religions. Just look at how far the Amish are willing to go to maintain that tradition.

The left has lost their minds! One year olds should carry their pregnancies to term, think about the children!!

“The kid I raped could get an abortion under this!” he said with wildly misdirected outrage.

some_guy,

Dude, you wouldn’t fucking believe it. I was at the clinic, killing my baby, and there was this fucking toddler doing the same thing. I mean, I’m a fucking grown man and I paid for my partner to scramble the brains of our unborn child, as is our right. But this little kid was there, doing the same thing. Couldn’t have been more than 4yo.

STOP TINY CHILDREN FROM KILLING TINIER CHILDREN.

I mean, at some point, you just gotta have a limit.

If Dave Chapelle from the early 2000s wrote that post it would have ended with “Go home baby!”

postmateDumbass,

I mean, its a toddler.

Damn freeloading rugrat.

You know tax payers are paying for that abortion.

That toddler’s OnlyFans isn’t even making enough for its own formula and diapers.

It’s 2024. Add the /s for sarcasm

should this have a /s or does the first one count. really though. as a sarcastic sob I just can't top what is normal for some folks.

cabron_offsets,

Republicans are mentally defective degenerates who should have no say over anything of consequence.

reagansrottencorpse,

They don’t have to make sense, their only aim is the inflame their base of morons.

Wilzax,

Abortion should be compulsory for anyone pregnant under 13. That’s the age we set for protecting children from the dangers of social media, and pregnancy is a heck of a lot more dangerous than that
