ask them why the founding fathers didn't say citizenship begins at conception. It requires being BORN. (in the US, it's territories, etc.) But it says BORN in the constitution, nowhere does it say conceived.

they cut wic and other programs for babies that are born.
they don't support families with decent wages and benefits to help children
they embrace war, the death penalty and gun carnage

they live inside women's pants trying to get complete control over the contents
they have tried to redefine rape so that rape isn't all the shit that comes after NO!
they want ultra sound probes forced on women in the FBI definition of rape
they don't prevent rapists from getting parental rights in most of the US states

This isn't about the right to life. This is about the 'right' for men to park their sperm anywhere they want to. This is about women as receptacles and men as dominators. This has nothing to do with life. They could care less about babies once they are born. this is about protecting the right of men to park their sperm wherever they want.

That is my old lady conclusion. I believe its true.

I also agree with the Op.

Most of the Repugs have no problem using contraception themselves.

I love that big sign must have had to use gas guzzler to get it there :-D
