Scott Walker Signs 20-Week Abortion Ban Into Law The bill has no exceptions for rape victims or seve

WASHINGTON -- Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) signed a bill into law on Monday that bans abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy unless the mother's life is in danger. The legislation, which passed the GOP-controlled state legislature earlier this month, makes no exceptions for severe fetal anomalies or for victims of rape and incest.

Walker, a 2016 presidential candidate, said he supports the legislation because fetuses can feel pain at 20 weeks -- an assertion that has been disputed by the mainstream medical community.

them threaten not to vote at all if their candidate isnt on the ballot in November, the TERRORISTS are sharpening their teeth.

They cant WAIT to install more scum on the SC so they can start punishing Women and so on...

These are sociopaths and many are psychopaths.

They WILL Take over this government if you are not careful.



You is the collective you.

And for KRIST sake when a valuable contingent of your base tells you your candidate is not addressing their needs, instead of arguing with them, work WITH them somehow.

Remember that? The million person March about 7 or so years ago? The one that U.S. media blacked out? And NO pizza places public charities, Facebook rallies, Celebrity Support-a-Thons for our lives ensued?

Remember?


Pukes want to kill women, this law ensures more deaths, and every other catastrophe that only women suffer due to unwanted pregnancy.

Oh, and the unwanted kids....and the families....their suffering is guaranteed too.


I do NOT Fucking get it. Where the hell is the massive reaction that turns tides?

Fucking hell, we're gonna end up like El Salvador or Paraguay.

I guess dead or mutilated girls, and forced reproductive slavery is not particularly motivating.
