When they try to ban birth control, and make no exceptions for rape, incest or even the mother's life being in jeopardy, I can't think of any other reason. I can't help but wonder that next, a woman will be considered a murderer if she menstruates instead of getting pregnant (yes, I realize that's a slippery slope argument). Given how vague this law is, though, I wonder how far they can stretch it...a woman who miscarries, can she be prosecuted? Women are baby machines and nothing more to these people...especially since these are the same people who, because they love that small government, would never support assistance for poor mothers.

Someone please explain to me how you can have small government that can also monitor every single uterus in the state.

They want it small enough to fit in your uterus... or a gay man's anus.

Just call it small. That always seems to work. As for the extent of birth control, I think it's just going to be whether or not you're on the pill or had an abortion. Miscarriages do happen and (hopefully) they understand that. if not then well what a bunch of retards.

IIRC many of the supporters of this legislation want every miscarriage to be investigated as potential abortion. So for most women, turn something horrible into something embarrassing and public as well.

I guess "small government" means setting up an agency that concerns itself with investigating any and all cases of miscarriage for possible criminal behavior as the law might be stretched to define.


I'd bet a limb that they'd do that if that law passed.

I realize this is a slippery slope argument, but I need to get this thought out of my mind.

Suppose this passes. What next for the American Taliban? Prosecuting a woman who rinses a fertilized egg out of her body from menstruating? Or prosecuting a woman for menstruating instead of getting pregnant?

They don't really want small government. They want a theocracy.
