This is the intended result of anti-abortion legislation.
Republicans consider being able to know that you forced a child to carry your offspring to term to be a proper reward for rape, and have codified that into law.
I think it’s more that they need impoverished people in order to have a society that’s reliant on them. It’s also why they are anti-education. Dumb and poor people can’t fend for themselves and need government agency.
Which is so fucking frustrating because having a well educated population can mean that everyone gets better lives, including the billionaires!
This poor girl, what a horrible, traumatic, life-altering ordeal to go through. This is so deeply sad.
The fact that democrats running for office aren’t blasting this to use fear to drive votes is moronic.
The republicans are great at weaponizing fear, it would be so easy to make ads that say “GOP wants you to carry your rapists baby and then have them shot up going to school”
“GOP wants you to carry your rapists baby
There’s exceptions for rape, she didn’t use the exception, people can’t force them to have an abortion, even if you’d like to.
then have them shot up going to school”
What? Get off the internet and stop making up fear mongering.
There is no establish procedure to get the rape exception in Mississippi, and even if there was, there are no abortion providers left in Mississippi. The mother asked about an abortion and was told that her best option was to go to Chicago. That’s not really an option for lower income people.
FYI, since Mississippi’s abortion law went into effect, only 2 exceptions have been granted.
Hey, how about reading the article before regurgitating your shit (wrong) opinions?
Here, I’ll help.
At their second visit, about a week later, Regina tentatively asked Balthrop if there was any way to terminate Ashley’s pregnancy. Seven months earlier, Balthrop could have directed Ashley to abortion clinics in Memphis, 90 minutes north, or in Jackson, Miss., two and a half hours south. But today, Ashley lives in the heart of abortion-ban America. In 2018, Republican lawmakers in Mississippi enacted a ban on most abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy. The law was blocked by a federal judge, who ruled that it violated the abortion protections guaranteed by Roe v. Wade. The Supreme Court felt differently. In their June 2022 decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the Supreme Court overturned the constitutional right to abortion that had existed for nearly half a century. Within weeks, Mississippi and every state that borders it banned abortion in almost all circumstances.
Balthrop told Regina that the closest abortion provider for Ashley would be in Chicago. At first, Regina thought she and Ashley could drive there. But it’s a nine-hour trip, and Regina would have to take off work. She’d have to pay for gas, food, and a place to stay for a couple of nights, not to mention the cost of the abortion itself. “I don’t have the funds for all this,” she says.
So Ashley did what girls with no other options do: she did nothing.
This is what the policies you support cause. I hope you’ll do some research and reconsider.

She and her child will make fine capital batteries for our glorious owner class.
Their desperation will increase their productivity output at menial labor. Which means growth, growth, growth!
This is great news for our beloved capitalist economy! May it profit even after all the peasants are dead!
Republicans: get her back to work in the mines!
Conservatives hate schools because educated children are harder for conservatives to impregnate.
