Oklahoma
to Raped Women: Screw You
OKies take the crazy crown back in a BIG way
Excerpt:
The religiously-insane Oklahoma Legislature voted
overwhelmingly Tuesday to override vetoes
of two highly restrictive abortion measures,
one making it a law that women undergo an ultrasound
and listen to a detailed description of the fetus
before having an abortion.
You see, women are too stupid to know what's
going on.
They don't have the mental capacity to understand
that they're pregnant.
Oh, why can't all women be as wise and kind as the Oklahoma legislature?
Though other states have passed similar measures
forcing women to have ultrasounds,
Oklahoma’s law goes further.
Of course it does.
That's what separates us from the Carolinas,
Kentucky and Missisppi.
Oklahoma’s law requires a doctor or technician
to set up the monitor where the woman can see it
and describe the heart, limbs and organs of the
fetus. No exceptions are made for rape and incest victims.
You see, women are too stupid to know when
they've been raped.
They don't have the mental capacity to understand
that they were penetrated against their will
by some animal and the Oklahoma legislature doesn't
think she'll feel guilty or humiliated enough.
Oh, why can't all women be as wise and kind as the Oklahoma legislature?
The second measure passed into law Tuesday protects
doctors from malpractice suits
if they decide not to inform the parents of
a unborn baby that the fetus has birth defects.
The intent of the bill...
Does it really matter what the intent of the bill is?
...is to prevent parents from later suing doctors
who withhold information
to try to influence them against having an abortion.
So, giving religiously-insane doctors permission
to withhold vital information from their female patients
is a good idea because ...they don't have the
mental capacity to understand that they're pregnant.
Oh, why can't all women be as wise and kind as
the Oklahoma legislature?
