This will just be the first of many. There have already been three documented cases in Ohio of minors who were sexually assaulted and were forced to go out of state for an abortion and thankfully since they could afford it.

But then again this is what Republicans support and want, the cruelty is the point because they think this thirteen year old asked for it. At least until it happens to their family and then they will be all about their moral abortion.

If you think it’s a better moral outcome for a 13 year old child to have their rapist’s baby than an abortion you’re a monster.

I was raped when I was 14 years old. That was 35 years ago and despite years of therapy I still deal with that trauma. I cannot imagine what this child has gone through, to deal with being raped then forced to give birth to her rapist's baby. My heart goes out to her and her family. Someone needs to let her know she matters.

I am not from the US, but from my point of view all republicans are evil. No exceptions, if you're a republican reading this: fuck you, you evil piece of trash.

Ameristan. What a shithole.

"It's about protecting the kids!"

Says everyone who supported this ban

The next move for republicans is parental rights for rapists. The party of forced birth for child brides.

I wonder how many former pro-lifers this will create as people watch their younger siblings, cousins, and other loved one's childhoods have their lives utterly ruined because they bought into theocratic propaganda about "the unborn".

Every time something like this happens it should be proof that it was about control and cruelty towards women and girls.

"Pro-life" strikes again. Apparently, "life" means being forced to endure rape and life-threatening birth-giving.

This shit makes me sick, fuck.

If the state is going to mandate birth, then the state should be covering the cost of raising the child. Make Mississippi pay child support.

America is a fascist country

This is one of the things to remember the next time someone tries to "both sides" some discussion about the ills of Republican control, and one of many demonstrable impacts they have made in their rampage through our legal and legislative bodies.

Absolutely horrible. That poor girl.

The owner class wants their capital batteries, the more desperate the better.

This child will make a fine desperate capital battery with few resources with which to negotiate terms, which is great news for the capital markets! Growth growth growth!

Not for you though, just for the Americans that matter.

This is exactly what conservatives want. Poor people dependent on the government.
