    Only a very small part of the population supports something this extreme, but the political system is pretty much geared to giving them what they want.https://twitter.com/HeartlandSignal/status/1503823346701590535 …

    In advancing HB2779, a bill modeled after the Texas abortion law, Tennessee Rep. Rebecca Alexander (R) says that it would be permissible for any family member of a rapist to sue the victim of rape for proceeding with an abortion. The bill is moving forward to full committee. pic.twitter.com/xZwM8BITc8

        They'll get there. They were the test case and with Scotus saying "¯\_(ツ)_/¯" officially, it's time to let other legislatures push the envelope.

        So, just to check where we're at: People asking for certain pronouns = WW3-level threat to civilization, but casually offering up a bill that allows a rapist to control the life of his victim is fine? Do I have this right? Okay.

        Was I wrong in detecting a catch in her throat when she realized she had to admit that, yes, this bill would allow the scenario?

        They're making a cottage industry of this. So, the rapist goes to jail but his family gets paid off, if his victim decides to have an abortion?

        Except he may not even go to jail. And without a conviction, he may receive parental rights.
