Ireland and abortion. Great recap of the situation on JIM JEFFERIES SHOW comedy central

So in Ireland you go to prison for 14 years if you have one and if you are a doctor you are put to death for performing them.

I cant confirm any women have gone to prison at all let alone for that long or if they have executed a physician, yet. Doubt it but according to the show that is the current law. The death for doctors part per my own research seems a bit unclear still.

The main proponent of this was a guest on the show, he is a complete pile of filthy fuck who appears to have never been laid and is angry at all women yet he is the LEADER of this movement in Ireland. Wish I could have reached into the TV and slapped the little prick.

Jim wanted to but instead at 30 seconds into the interview he ended it after the prick said doctors should be executed for performing them.

The JOKE was now if you live in Ireland and are a woman and want to have control of your own body you have to travel several hours round trip to England to get a pill or procedure. So the Jefferies show using their notoriety as to Jim himself offered the little no good fucking prick an interview on AMERICAN TV if he would travel to London, on the trip they assigned an unbelievably annoying person to accompany him to the interview, as a joke, to drive the prick crazy. Very funny.

So they made HIM travel the way he makes women travel and then when he got there Jim ended the interview after 30 seconds

Ireland doesn't have one. That was just the asshole's suggestion-- one would think a European politician would know such things.

I was wondering why not just hop over the border to Northern Ireland, but it seems that the UK gave them their own legal system in 1998, so it's London or nothing. Maybe France if they've got the time and airfare. And the UK apparently is not so thrilled about abortion on demand, either. Prison sentences are shorter, though.

It is time the law was changed in both (all three?) countries, but we're having enough trouble dealing with it here.
