The new legislation, prompted by ProPublica’s reporting, comes after 111 Texas doctors signed a public letter urging that the ban be changed because it “does not allow us as medical professionals to do our jobs.”
As if these issues weren’t raised before they ever voted on the bill in the first place.
They also know full well that exemptions won’t work. No doctor wants to perform a procedure when they might have to argue the decision in a criminal case. Politicians need to keep their hands off the practice of medicine.
Abortion is MURDER so why are Republicans trying to Find Exceptions to MURDER? Or is Abortion NOT Murder?
The women dying are actually ones trying to have children. Collateral damage in the war against abortion, some might say. But intolerable if your goal is to get people to have more children (which is really at the heart of the anti-abortion right).
I know you’re doing a bit, and I’m pro abortion too, but there are exceptions to murder. Famously, self defence.
If you want to be that pedantic, no, self defense is not murder. Killing and murder are two different things. For killing to be murder it has to be legally unjustified.
Yeah that’s the point, it’s an exception where killing is not murder.
