Can someone point to me where in H.B 1566 this comes up? The bill seems to be solely about fetal tissue research.

Ahh I see. Arkansas §20-17-102 D(i) requires surviving parents to agree on disposition of remains and they've added fetal tissue to that section.

That being said the permission would be on disposal, not the procedure of abortion and even that is probably a stretch.

Wrong.

Back on topic, it's almost as if these lawmakers believe that if the number of AK abortions was zero, suddenly the state would become a utopian paradise for all man to live in.

Wrong.

The article says it would "require women to notify and get consent from their sexual partners or relatives before getting abortions." What exactly is wrong with that? There is nothing about "rapists" as the bullchit troll OP suggests. I think if you claim rape to get around the law then you must at least have a police report to validate your claim. You just dont get to lie so you can kill your baby.

Liberals.

Religious fanaticism is on the rise in the US. The problem is that there are so many fanatics there, it must be difficult to call them out on their ridiculous bullshit because of social blow-back. Can a politician even get elected in the US without claiming to believe in religious fairy tales?

Atheist fanaticism has been on the rise in the US and its growing hostile towards non atheists. Some fanatics have burned churches, etc.

So you think requiring every rape victim who wants an abortion to report the rape, regardless of circumstances, is a good idea? You literally can't think of a single scenario where someone would want to avoid drawing that sort of attention to themselves?

How about say in a scenario involving an physically abusive partner or parent? An underage victim? An attacker who wields considerable power and therefore could continue the make the victim's life a living hell? A woman who doesn't want to prosecute because she knows she might have to relieve the experience plus the public spectacle, and simply wants to draw a line after say a relationship with an abusive boyfriend? A woman who doesn't want the risk of public humiliation and being seen as a false accuser because the jury wasn't convinced?

Excuse me genius, but a rapist is a sexual partner. Its just forced sex without consent.

Everything is wrong with that if you believe women have any kind of agency.

That's the kind of shit the Taliban and ISIS does. But hey religious conservatives regardless of faith all share some messed up need to control women. Good job Felix you've sided with the Taliban and ISIS.

More desire to punish women for sex from the religious right. Must be a day ending in y.

Its funny because it comes from the same people who are scared shitless of their natural allies in the quest to control women. The religious right in this country is like the Taliban without the stoning.

Why do we even bother trying to have civil discourse with Felix? He has proven he is literally incapable of logical thought and can only regurgitate conservative BS.
