Contrary to the apparent GOP/TP "belief" that women choose to abort for frivolous reasons, I'm willing to bet [and I know from a few friends] that for most women abortion is an awful, gut-wrenching decision ~ to intentionally make that decision even worse via lies and deception is unconscionable, despicable, and disgraceful ~ ~ bolding/emphasis below is mine ~ Sooz

New Kansas anti-abortion law orders doctors to lie to their patients

Legislators in Kansas’ Republican-led state House and Senate passed a draconian anti-abortion bill Friday night, including provisions that order physicians to tell their pregnant patients that breast cancer is a risk of abortion, a claim that has been thoroughly debunked.

According to the Associated Press, the bill now heads to the desk of Republican Governor Sam Brownback, who is expected to sign it into law. The new restrictions are expected to be in place by July 1.

Included in the language of the bill is the concept of “fetal personhood,” which states that life begins at fertilization, making all forms of abortion and some forms of birth control illegal. The measure puts restrictions on what children are allowed to learn in school about sex and contraception and dictates what information doctors must provide to patients.

Republicans argue that they are not gearing up to put abortion providers out of business, but rather celebrating God’s creation.

“The human is a magnificent piece of work at all stages of development, wondrous in every regard, from the microscopic until full development,” said Sen. Steve Fitzgerald (R), who supported the bill.

State Democrats have objected, calling the bill “Taliban-esque” and insisting that Republicans are playing politics with public health.

“It’s the very definition of government intrusion in a woman’s personal medical decisions,” said Democratic Rep. John Wilson.

Republican state Senator Mary Pilcher-Cook said the new law is “a clear statement from Kansas with respect to the judgment on the inherent value of human life.”

The bill also takes away tax breaks normally provided to health care providers from any and all medical facilities that offer abortion services, raising their costs for all patients, not just those seeking to terminate a pregnancy. This type of punitive taxation is a tactic commonly used by anti-choice lawmakers who are trying to shut down women’s clinics.

Jordan Goldberg, state advocacy counsel for the New York City-based Center for Reproductive Rights, called the measures “appalling and discriminatory.”

“It’s probably, if not definitely unconstitutional,” said Goldberg, “and it’s incredibly mean-spirited.”

As long as they can fool the ignorant portion of the public into thinking that most abortions are sought by sluts who use it for birth control, they'll get a rapt audience to cheer on their agenda.

“The human is a magnificent piece of work at all stages of development, wondrous in every regard, from the microscopic until full development,” said Sen. Steve Fitzgerald (R), who supported the bill.

Until it's born. Then it's on it's own and can starve to death as far as they are concerned.

If the child survives to go to school, s/he cannot, under any circumstances, learn about contraception because (according to what the idiots think) it will foster sexual activity. Then because of these sorts of laws, they cannot seek safe abortions after they get pregnant (at 10, 11, 12....), and they get pregnant because they haven't been taught about contraception.....
round and round it goes.

So sick and tired of this.

"And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth." (Genesis 9:1)

Sadly, there is no record of God discussing any of this with Noah's wife or his daughters in law. And no instruction re what to do when the earth is replenished enough already, or when you've already done your share of replenishing, and all that replenishment might wind up impoverishing or killing you.
