    I mean Republicans are stupid and all but I think they’re intending for this to be a deterrent. It’s a stupid and cruel deterrent, but it’s probably not meant to somehow kill the woman without killing the baby.

        I’m pretty sure that I saw a depressing statistic about the number of pregnant women getting murdered now. An unfortunate number of men murder their pregnant wives/girlfriends.
