Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft has proposed asking voters whether they are in favor of allowing “dangerous and unregulated abortions until live birth.”
What a dumbass.
On the bright side, Republicans already tried fucking with the language in Ohio, and we all saw how well that went.
Give it up, you troglodytes. Nobody wants your anti-choice bullshit.
Nobody wants your anti-choice bullshit.
A majority of Americans favor regulations limiting access to abortion.
Citation needed.
64% to be precise, per Gallup.
You made that number up. I read the entire article, and not only does it not say that anywhere (and in fact, 64% isn’t a figure used for any metric), it says 49% support some form of restriction versus 47% who want expansive abortion rights.
The problem is “some form of restriction” is a terrible metric to categorize people. Does that mean FDA regulating mifepristone? Because 63% support having at least prescription access to it. Does it mean having better laws? Because 61% think the overturning of Dobbs was a bad decision. Does it mean preventing first trimester abortions? Because 69% support abortion access in the first trimester.
I don’t know where you got “64% support some form of restriction” from, but it certainly wasn’t your source.
My friend, are you illiterate? From the article:
51% say it should be legal “only under certain circumstances,” and 13% say it should be illegal in all circumstances.
Now add them and tell me what you get…
The 47% and 49% figures that you’re reading are made from a subdivision of that 51% “certain circumstances” category. Like, it says that right above those figures. To that end, that 47% doesn’t mean no abortion restrictions – it means “legal in all or most cases.”
That’s not how this works. That’s not how any of this works.
now do gun regulation
This argument makes zero sense. Wouldn’t a legal abortion tend to have more regulation then an illegal abortion, or for those in the know a back ally abortion? And the gall to back it up with intention to be the clearest explanation on the ballot, what a douche nozzle.
Why’d they have to put a picture of him in the article?
I’m trying to eat here.
So this would allow safe, regulated abortions and also allow dangerous, unregulated abortions after live birth. That’s a little extreme for me. I can’t support post-birth abortions.
I also hate post-birth abortions which is why I don’t like people shooting up my kid’s school.
^ Found the dumbass who didn’t even read the article and has zero understanding of how abortions work.
allow dangerous, unregulated abortions after live birth
This is not a thing that exists.
I’m shocked to learn this!
