22. It is worse than just the number of children...

The slippery slope goes from number to permissible number of sexual acts, to number of sexual partners, to permissible times for sexual acts, to permitted positions for insemination, etc...

Small government? Who will staff the Inter-uterus investigation patrol? Where will the judges on the Reproductive Crimes units come from - appointees? elections? How long will they serve on the bench? Lifetime appointments? 2-year terms? 4? 6? Who DECIDES a viable pregnancy when potential harm, loss of fertility or death are possible for the pregnant woman? Like EVERYTHING out of a conservative pea brain, there is no "there" there....no plans, no thoughts, no logic, no consistency...

Reduce abortions? BULLSHIT...you only INCREASE the health risks to women and the number of deaths from dangerous abortions in uncontrolled underground and back alley 'services'.

Think of the 'child'? Yeah, riiiiiiight, until it goes home and needs food or health care or education or support for the parents. Without MANDATORY child welfare laws ATTACHED to anti-abortion laws they are nothing but state sanctioned cruelty writ into law.

I really abhor the anti-choice, control the women crowd. Almost as deeply as a I hate Trump. Fuck them all with the same rusty garden tool.
