Florida governor DeSantis signed into law a bill to ban abortion after 6 weeks of pregnancy.

President Biden's White House called the bill "extreme and dangerous".

The ban prohibits abortions after six weeks of pregnancy, but allows exceptions if the woman's life or health is at risk, and in cases of rape or incest, under certain conditions.

The bill passed the state House by a vote of 70 to 40.

Abortion rights supporters don't like this law because many women may not realize or be aware they are pregnant before 6 weeks.

Florida is America's 3rd largest state by population. It is also the fastest growing state, their state population surpassed the state of New York only a few years ago.

Lots of people from New York and the Northeast travel or live in Florida for several months out of the year, so it is possible this new law could affect them. If the fetus was conceived in Florida, the state is going to claim jurisdiction, even if the woman flees to some other place to do the abortion.

I would have allowed abortion up to 7 or 8 weeks

with the permission of the father.



A little???

Don't go crazy now; women might entertain the delusion they live in a rational world where they have control over their bodies...

You just inched forward, and then jumped a lot of inches back...

North Dakota has now also passed a 6-week abortion ban. Only without exceptions for rape or incest.


(Guess it's too troublesome figuring out which women were actually raped and are legitimate victims; and besides, doesn't a baby who resulted from a non-consensual sexual event have just as much intrinsic human worth as any other?)


Not many people live in North Dakota, but about 8 years ago there were a lot of people moving there for high paying jobs resulting from the shale oil boom when oil prices spiked.

The science seems to indicate that abortion bans do not reduce abortion rates. So in terms of “saving the babies”, they are useless.

These abortions bans do cause an increase in maternal mortality rates, though. So these laws are useful if your goal is to kill pregnant people.

Of course, the homosexual and transvestite supporting “White House” supports murdering unborn children.

Do you expect anything different?

Seriously. Having children is Normal Sexuality involving a mother and father. Transvestities and Homosexuals cannot make children. LGBTQ are nothing but left wing racist Nazis who hate white people and people of faith and you need to wake up to that. LGBTQ are Nazis and Antifa are their strong armed terrorist guards. Murder children, have children submit to sex change operations, homosexuals running around teaching that their “sexuality” is normal and natural.

And we wonder why people go out with a gun and shoot up a school or a shopping mall. This is why! Here!
