A qui le dis-tu! Shame...

i have a uterus bad thing is i'm a boy

CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY!

za ostro ,za ostro, no pasaran w USA !....................

One seriously fucked up state!

We’ve devolved into a Feudal state from the Dark Ages

Outstanding!!! It never really was mankind’s choice. The Lord knew you far before you were even born!

Girls in Alabama better stay away from Paw and Uncle Billy Bob.

For those on the right who keep preaching about socialism, this is it, government telling women what they can do with their own body. Care to guess which side is doing it? ------

GovernorKayIvey USSupremeCourt FYI women aren't the only ones who want to have an abortion. there are men who agreed and supported their decisions.

Lawsuits coming!

Save the planet for our children, kill babies! The battle cry of Democrats. Please promise me you will stop whining when you lose in 2020.

NoForcedPregnancies

Alabama Law is ...ignorance personified

Please quit with the 'even in cases of rape or incest' line. You're implying a woman has suffered enough to deserve an abortion in these cases. Do better. A woman doesn't owe anybody explanations for her choices. She deserves the respect of being able to make choices.

The Right Wing’s Culture War is consuming our democracy like a forest fire.

It amazes me how many people are eager to kill the unborn for convenience sake

.GovernorKayIvey just basically flipped off the United States Supreme Court and the legal principle of stare decisis.

Will the State Department be issuing a travel warning?

But what about the SJWs?

Get out of Alabama. Rank state.

Unless the governor's or any of the legislature's children get impregnated by a black guy.

Abortion has been and continues to be abhorrent, I’m thrilled we as a nation are beginning to bring an and to this era of blood, that being said exceptions for rape or if birth could kill the mother are totally acceptable, only trying to stop abortion as birth control

Your Cadillac has got a wheel in the ditch

I made a post earlier saying I agreed with no abortions in most cases. I have one big problem with this bill. You should be able to have an abortion in cases of rapeor incest. In my opinion carrying a rape baby can be mentally damaging time the woman/mother.

Hopefully this will encourage intelligent, competent people to leave Alabama, and the state will shrivel and die with nothing left but ignorant, incompetent voters making increasingly worse legislation.

well maybe they should ban masturbation as well !

I'm glad we have since invented the wheel so women can still roll their asses right out of Alabama when in need of services.

Disgusting. Disgraceful. Unforgivable. Alabama is now dead to me. It might as well be North Korea.

Imagine if we were all disposed off like trash on slight knowledge of our presence, we could have been no more. Nature was given its full course; and it is only logical to do the same to others as well. Do unto others what you would like them do unto you.

Unbelievable! This is an excellent reminder of why I will NEVER live in the south...

Quit killing babies

If you do any business in Alabama, PLEASE STOP! Residents if you live near a border state go across state lines and do your shopping. Stop spending money in Alabama!

Women shop. We as women can start boycotting companies that ship or do business with Alabama. Start with Amazon. Create our own sanctions. They want to control women? Use your voices and your purchasing power to fight back.

Christofascism in the works.

Get ready for more girls with girls! It’s safer!

Amen!🙏🙏🙏🙏

And I just made my donation to the ACLU. We will Fight this Fight!

Fuck your abortion law.

So they’re okay with a pregnancy resulting from rape or incest — because that’s not traumatic enough on its own, oh no, they will make young women - some young girls - carry that pregnancy to term. WTAF.

Amazing!

And the more that Trumpsters support this, the more likely that they have just lost 2020 and don't even realize it yet. Even most pro-lifers don't support cases of rape or incest, because that's just a bridge too far.

Lol, roll tide. Of course Bama passes a law making the birth the abortion of incest babies a crime. That state is like 90% related by now.

It’s amazing to me that a woman had the last say on this bill. And took our rights away. It’s very sad how backwards we are going.

Hell hath no fury then a women .... getting screwed over by the GOP.

iamjohnoliver looks like these guys don’t learn

Should try sorting out gun laws first, pretty sure more lives lost to guns than abortions Hypocrites

Here are the people who enter your uterus: 1. Baby 2. Abortion Doctor. So who exactly are you referring to? Government thinks baby has every right to stay but abortion doctor must go out.

The way to stop this BS is to vote these Republicans out permanently. Vote People Vote.

TitaniaMcGrath Would that be a male or female one?

abortions have and will always happen, they should not be happening in the alleyways, in the basements..

Good

Alabama leads the way, taking women’s rights back to the Stone Age. Total BS. Women are under attack in This country! The GOP is anti living creatures & women’s health. THAT is the truth. But an unborn fetus conceived in violent crime 👍🏼

Vawwww! How can they force women to carry this burden? How can they victimize women a second time after a rapist? Vawww!

The hypocrisy knows no bounds when these same people are willing do absolutely nothing to at least try to take measures to protect living children from dying at school.

The weird spacing on 'uterus' made me think she was saying 'cute rus_' but the C and another letter were covered by her hand

No problem snake.

Alabama doing its best to be worse than Mississippi.

Proposed Law Would Require Mothers To Look At Pictures Of Congressmen She Disappointing Before Having AbortionWASHINGTON—Arguing that the measure would help women fully understand the consequences of their decision, members of the House of Representatives introduced a new bill this week that would require anyone seeking an abortion to view images of the congressmen she will disappoint prior to undergoing the procedure. “Before any pregnancy can be terminated, women will have a chance to see the faces of these politicians, which will help them make an informed decision as to whether they’d really like to go through with letting down an elected public servant,” Rep. Trent Franks (R-AZ) said of the proposed law, which also mandates that women listen to audio of the lawmakers’ talking points on when life begins. “What this bill does is show women that, hey, these congressmen aren’t just faceless legislators; they’re real politicians whose agendas are being destroyed. Once they see the actual eyes and ears and other features of the lawmakers whose spirits they’re breaking, I believe they’ll rethink what they’re about to do.” In response to backlash from women’s rights groups, the bill’s sponsors said that if women don’t want to view the images, they are free to close their eyes or just look away. She disappointing 'No children are born for the first time in history.'
