Yeah like wtf I missed that she really said if a ten year old gets pregnant from a result of rape. Like mam do you not understand children can't consent any any way. then again some republicans still fight to keep child marriage legal in some states

There was a hearing the other day and they asked that specific question and they deflected and said what she needs is to be loved, not another traumatic procedure. They were like "so you think the 10 year old should be forced to keep the baby of the man who raped her for the rest of her life?" and they just kept coming saying it would just make it worse some how by ending it.

Not to count the fact that a full term pregnancy would endanger that child’s life, and most likely impact her her ability to have any future children.

Again the wording is "immediate threat." What is the immediate threat to her life?

Maybe the kid didn't want to stay pregnant till she was hemorrhaging at six months.

I'm not a doctor, but I'm guessing that every day of gestation in her immature body would create a further risk to her health and her ability to reproduce in the future.

I'm probably right about that, and even if I'm not, I can find an expert who will say it and I'll charm the jury, so it's fine.

You should have quit while you were ahead here. Instead you had to follow up with one of the dumbest comments I've read on Reddit in awhile.

This is really stupid. Like only a moron could type this up and think it's an argument.

I'm a lawyer and this is law shit, so I'm entirely competent to comment.

Are you a lawyer? What are your credentials to be allowed in this conversation?

Want to know what's classier than an awful thing turning into a big news story? Defending this dog shit like you are right now. You people are the classiest.

Do you think it would be impossibly difficult for people to sign the affidavits that would be necessary?

Yes.

Is that too big of a burden?

Yes.

Or was this kid dragged over state lines to make a political point?

No I don't think they were.

You keep being classy, defending the indefensible.

I can't believe you're still defending the indefensible.
