Now we know why he says crap like "post birth abortion". Because he performed one. Aka actual murder.

Yes, but that's a filthy postborn baby. With sin and all that. Plus it was a girl not a person.

This is a fetus real baby! Hasn't even properly implanted in the egg yet!

The year: 1859

The Union took the worst possible course with "reconstruction": it placated and allowed the rot to persist, grow and self-govern again while having equal voice so quickly to states that didn't attempt to secede. The north should have either just let the south secede, or finished the job with a full-scale cultural annihilation that would have taken decades. We have been fighting the civil war since 1860, the civil rights movement a major battle but have now ceded government power to a group who wants to finally kill the union and get revenge on those terrible folks who took away their slave labor.

I would consider Ohio to be northern, and they're certainly on their way

It's not a North/South divide, it's urban/city.

Tell that to Idaho and Montana

Yeah we really shouldn't have given in to all their demands after beating their asses in that war.

not all of us, just the fascists in power.

Alabama considers unfertilized ovaries to be living human beings. Eggs. Just the yolk. America is indeed nuts.

I have tons of words coming to mind.

"We have nothing to lose but our Chains" are probably the most pertinent ones.

She looks like she's not just upset, but heart-broken. I can't help but wonder if she wanted the pregnancy, knew something was wrong with the fetus, and did what she had to in a state that left her with no other options.

Edit: I recently learned that when someone's expression is asymmetrical, the left side of their face (which is controlled by the right hemisphere, which processes emotional content) is more likely to betray what they're truly feeling than their right side (which is controlled by the more methodical left hemisphere, which is better at masking.) What that reveals here is a woman who's feeling tragic sadness, and the best she can muster is a neutral half-mask while posing for a photo.

People will still get caught occasionally. It's easy to screw up your privacy, and someone who needs an abortion can't just sit on the package if she's worried about a controlled delivery.

I think if it's in his power, and he learns about it. Beshear seems like a good person, that happens to be governor.
