14-Year-Old Pregnant Rape Victim Slut-Shamed in Indiana

Professor Baxter said:
Again, strawman. Who claimed it did?

This sort of thing reveals the inescapable contradiction at the heart of the anti-abortion movement: The very same sexual conservatism that gives rise to anti-abortion sentiment also produces slut-shaming and social ostracism of pregnant young and single women (not to mention rape victims). Avoiding the shame may actually drive a woman to get an abortion—not exactly the end result the anti-choicers want. For single pregnant women who are grown adults, this contradiction is finally collapsing under its own weight, contributing to the rise in single motherhood in red states. But for teenagers, the loving support for "choosing life" promised by the anti-abortion movement remains elusive.


The point made is rock solid. You guys want to pretend that all these ideas are one monolith. They are not though they are certainly related.

All of those who oppose abortion or who vote Republican are not implicated. Some of you are just too chickenshit to call out the social conservatives who spread this sort of hate.

um, actually you just did....
 
Oh forgot one thing, it has never been a pro-choicer who said if she was really raped she would not have conceived. That guy plays for your team.

Who else would they be? Look at this objectively for a moment; the answer is obvious.

personally, I would look first at the friends of the guy who's going to jail for three counts of sexual assault because she reported it.......but hey, why would a liberal think about this logically......
 
Here is a couple of abortion protesters who get schooled by a man who is losing his second child to a birth defect. I bet these women slept well.

I know exactly what you're doing, you're trying to bait him into going further, you must think everyone is as simple as you.

BTW how are you coming along on finding those posts you claimed were on this board of people attacking this young girl for not having an abortion? Any progress dipshit?
 
What I am floored by the most is when something like this happens all the anti-choicers want to pretend that their movement is all about love. That people don't stand outside of clinics and call women sluts and whores and murderers. That they don't hold signs showing fetal body parts and scream like loons at the women going in and coming out of the clinics. OWN your movement, this is what it has been for decades, hell every once in a while one of your brethren like Eric Rudolph bombs a clinic or shoots a doctor. Show me the same thing happening in the pro-choice movement.

Fuck off, Dixie #2. You are just an ignorant boob who does not understand language or math.

NOBODY, that I am aware of, attacked her for not having an abortion. If you can point out where that was done, do so.

I would be very good to see the moron back up this outrageous claim, but he has cowered from doing thus far.
 
In the U.S., violence directed towards abortion providers has killed at least eight people, including four doctors, two clinic employees, a security guard, and a clinic escort.

March 10, 1993: Dr. David Gunn of Pensacola, Florida was fatally shot during a protest. He had been the subject of wanted-style posters distributed by Operation Rescue in the summer of 1992. Michael F. Griffin was found guilty of Gunn's murder and was sentenced to life in prison.

July 29, 1994: Dr. John Britton and James Barrett, a clinic escort, were both shot to death outside another facility, the Ladies Center, in Pensacola. Rev. Paul Jennings Hill was charged with the killings. Hill received a death sentence and was executed on September 3, 2003. The clinic in Pensacola had been bombed before in 1984 and was also bombed subsequently in 2012.

December 30, 1994: Two receptionists, Shannon Lowney and Lee Ann Nichols, were killed in two clinic attacks in Brookline, Massachusetts. John Salvi was arrested and confessed to the killings. He died in prison and guards found his body under his bed with a plastic garbage bag tied around his head. Salvi had also confessed to a non-lethal attack in Norfolk, Virginia days before the Brookline killings.

January 29, 1998: Robert Sanderson, an off-duty police officer who worked as a security guard at an abortion clinic in Birmingham, Alabama, was killed when his workplace was bombed. Eric Robert Rudolph, who was also responsible for the 1996 Centennial Olympic Park bombing, was charged with the crime and received two life sentences as a result.

October 23, 1998: Dr. Barnett Slepian was shot to death with a high-powered rifle at his home in Amherst, New York.[10] His was the last in a series of similar shootings against providers in Canada and northern New York state which were all likely committed by James Kopp. Kopp was convicted of Slepian's murder after finally being apprehended in France in 2001.

May 31, 2009: Dr. George Tiller was shot and killed by Scott Roeder as Tiller served as an usher at church in Wichita, Kansas.

ATTEMPTED MURDERS. (Sorry forgot the demarcation in the original)

August 19, 1993: Dr. George Tiller was shot outside of an abortion facility in Wichita, Kansas. Shelley Shannon was charged with the crime and received an 11-year prison sentence (20 years were later added for arson and acid attacks on clinics).

July 29, 1994: June Barret was shot in the same attack which claimed the lives of James Barrett, her husband, and Dr. John Britton.

December 30, 1994: Five individuals were wounded in the shootings which killed Shannon Lowney and Lee Ann Nichols.

October 28, 1997: Dr. David Gandell of Rochester, New York was injured by flying glass when a shot was fired through the window of his home.

January 29, 1998: Emily Lyons, a nurse, was severely injured, and lost an eye, in the bombing which also killed Robert Sanderson.

Someone PLEASE show me where the pro-choice movement has used this kind of violence to silence opponents of safe legal abortions. ANYONE?
