To those who think we should accommodate these people to reach some magical consensus middle ground, any success just makes them even nuttier:

Quote

A bill to ban abortion introduced in the Ohio state legislature requires doctors to “reimplant an ectopic pregnancy” into a woman’s uterus – a procedure that does not exist in medical science – or face charges of “abortion murder”.

The move comes amid a wave of increasingly severe anti-abortion bills introduced across much of the country as conservative Republican politicians seek to ban abortion and force a legal showdown on abortion with the supreme court.

Okay, somehow perform a medically impossible procedure or face murder charges. Got it. But there’s more in the bill:

Quote

House Bill 413 bans abortion outright and defines a fertilized egg as an “unborn child”.

It also appears to punish doctors, women and children as young as 13 with “abortion murder” if they “perform or have an abortion”. This crime is punishable by life in prison. Another new crime, “aggravated abortion murder”, is punishable by death, according to the bill.

Okay, so one nutter wrote a wingnut fantasy bill, right? No rational legislator would actually support this, right?

Quote

The bill is sponsored by representatives Candice Keller and Ron Hood, and co-sponsored by 19 members of Ohio’s 99-member House.

Right. As I said, no rational legislator would support this.

It appears they are whipping themselves into some sort of frenzy before the big showdown in November 2020. (Or the coup against God's Chosen One, whichever comes first.)

The republican party is dying.

They need to get all the hardest-core, single-issue voters out to support them.

What the literal hell ???? My wife had an ectopic pregnancy back in the late 90’s. Her tube ruptured and it damn near killed her. I spent a few hours threatening to sue the hell out of the ER until they agreed to do the necessary work.

Change the law so the fetus has to be implanted into the father instead. See how fast that fails.

“reimplant an ectopic pregnancy”

Just like you would reimplant a root-bound houseplant into a bigger pot.

Wonder what they would use as fertilizer during this procedure?
