giving some attention to in the mess miss case, in both of those states they ve enacted abortion bans that provide no exceptions for cases of rape and incest. tip like in the past even for the most conservative of lawmakers that would have been going too far. now that it s been normalized in both of these states and again it s a cruel proposition. it s frankly immoral to think that a 10-year-old or 11-year-old to carry a pregnancy of a person who raped her, be it a stranger or a member of her family. this is something that is just simply unfathomable and when you think about it, there are very few instances, virtually none where the state says we now take ownership or we now take possession of your body and we force you to do something. we got rid of the draft in the united states.
