"no amendment can overturn the God given rights with which we were born."
...so, no birth no problem then?
The really weird part was this:
The amendment's language is dangerously vague and unconstrained, and can be weaponized to attack parental rights or defend rapists, pedophiles, and human traffickers.
I mean I know that they love to mix things together, but this might be the first time I’ve seen abortion linked to pedophilia and supporting rapists.
It's just buzz phrase salad that they serve with every issue. Biden=pedo, immigrants=rapists, trans=rapist, abortion=trafficking, literally any issue=just add a,b, or c for justification. It's a tired recipe, but their customers enjoy it.
I'm pretty sure they meant that line as a reference to their own god-given right to impose their will on everyone else.
It’s really funny when they whine about outside money. I didn’t see the GOP up in arms as Citizens United passed, I don’t see them upset when they SuperPACs give money to their campaigns so it seems they only care when it affects them, big fucking shocker there….
Please proceed.
You just got pounded at the polls over this issue. Please keep the rage levels high.

WTF America. Don't you have some sort of neutral House Constable with powers to kick out these idiots in cases like this? How can they just ignore official results without consequence?
It sounds like there needs to be a bottom-to-top reform of the law where every 'norm' that used to be assumed, gets new enforceable law to back it up.
Don't you have some sort of neutral House Constable with powers to kick out these idiots in cases like this?
No, we have an impartial judiciary system that...... oh wait...
The Republicans think they have a right to rule us without our consent. Sooner or later the military may have to get involved.
It's been 6 hours. You might wait for the process to unfold.
There is no neutral role, everything can be made partisan.
If the people don't like the actions of an elected official, they can either try to vote them out in the next election or try to force a recall and replace them.
"No election can overturn our god given right to ignore your rights"
The party of Lincoln sure doesn't seem like they want a Government of the people, by the people, and for the people.
The most worrying part of this press release is the part where they're saying they're going to try and reign in the powers of the judiciary to enforce the abortion amendment. Sure sounds a lot like fascism to me.
Sure sounds a lot like fascism to me.
Funny thing, it also looks, smells and feels like it too! I wonder why that is? Please don’t ask me to taste it.
I'm sure some of their Republican voters will be thrilled to hear that...
Oh by the way, I thought the GOP were about state rights?
Not long ago I read the best explanation of conservative brain cancer ever. If you look at everything they say and do through this lens, it all actually makes sense. It's insanity, but it does make sense internally.
"I get to tell you what to do; you do not get to tell me what to do."
That's it. That's their insane logic. They can't even elucidate it, but they all follow it.
They are about their power and their control. Nothing else.
This is their way of admitting to using foreign interference in our upcoming elections.
"You lost. Get over it." -- Republicans, 2016
Hey Republicans. Prove your specific god exists, and I'll recognize that you have god-given rights.
In the meantime, we have real, objective proof that you lost and need to STFU.
Sounds like they wanna take our freedoms. Hey, didn't we go to literal fucking war over that once or twice?
Supreme court here we come..... oh no....
Issues of State law go to the State supreme court.
Sometimes the Federal court butts in, but those cases are rare.
But this is the sort of reason the USSC was stacked the way it was.
We watch while another group tries to overthrow ~~an~~ two elections.
Yes someone posted this on Lemmy so now I can say what I want…
….maybe someone needs to revoke their license to living?
If they want to rule like kings than they can be treated as such
Time for a People V. Legislature of Ohio.
Laws for thee, none for me my Goodman.
I am sickiof big government Republicans
"Everything you don't like is fasict." Mmmhmmm
So…. They’re being fired right?
I get that he misspoke but it does seem illustrative of the whole issue. Fetuses don’t have the rights we’re born with because they haven’t been born.
