The exceptions for abortions in states with bans are meaningless. People don’t understand them, they are too hard to get, and physicians are too afraid to perform the abortion.
In MS no-one helped a 13 year old rape victim get an abortion she was legally entitled to. abcnews.go.com/amp/US/13-ye...

And honestly no attorney wants to tell any doctor that it’s legal to do because there’s no real precedent. A doctor certainly isn’t going to do it until an attorney can say with conviction that it’s legal

To be fair to the docs/hospital administration, would you risk prison, when all legal assumptions are likely to go against you, and the result will be destitution, and wearing orange?

At the core of this is the christian need to punish everyone for perceived immorality. Only immoral people get raped, so she deserves to gestate a rape pregnancy as punishment for being immoral, and if she wasn't immoral, she wouldn't have been raped. There is no hate like christian love.

It’s one of the things republicans are doing with voting rights, too Make the laws convoluted enough to strike fear into people, and if a black person makes a mistake, have a conservative judge sentence them to years in jail

Any MS family lawyers? I wonder how widely known/understood it is that the custodial rights of the rapist father can be terminated in MS? I'm guessing not, and even to the extent it is, it's hard to get without an attorney's assistance.

It comes down to which you think is worse: Raping a child or murdering one.

Some conservative saw Roe repealed and raped a 12 year old. The GOP supports it.

Remember the pre-Dobbs days when naive centrist types would say 'oh they'd never overturn roe. It's just politics yadda yada yada.'

We just read a paper that Dr. Herd and you helped author in my antipoverty class and it's got all 16 of us so mad about... Everything, but thank you for giving us clarity about how to discuss this when we talk to our friends and fellow voters.

The exceptions are written into the laws to make conservatives feel less like monsters for supporting them, but legislators know hospital administrators aren’t going to risk bankrupting their hospitals or losing their doctors.

What people don't get is that in a lot of places this was the functional state of play BEFORE Roe was repealed

Meaningless is typical Republican politics btw. Federal protection of confidential and personal healthcare is clearly required.

"Family values! Save the children!" The far right doesn't care about children, they intentionally caused this problem because of their hate and desire to control the lives of others.

What it doesn't say (maybe I just don't know, if so, sorry) is whether rape has to be confirmed first (in court). If so, it's a total ban anyway

And Mississippi voters are fine with Ashley's situation. They'll yell themselves she deserves it, was asking for it, and has to take responsibility for her choices. Until it happens to them. Cue link to Only Moral Abortion is My Own article.

The exceptions are sops. Just rationalization aids for casual prolife people who don’t want to see the real world consequences of their political support for this crap.
