South Carolina GOP lawmakers propose death penalty for women who have abortions

Republican lawmakers in South Carolina are considering a change to the state’s criminal code that would make a person who gets an abortion eligible for the death penalty.

The bill being considered in South Carolina, dubbed the South Carolina Prenatal Equal Protection Act of 2023, would redefine “person” under state law to include a fertilized egg, giving it at the point of conception equal protection under the state’s homicide laws, including the death penalty.

The bill provides an exception for a pregnant person who underwent an abortion “because she was compelled to do so by the threat of imminent death or great bodily injury.” It also provides an exception if the procedure is needed to avert the death of a mother “when all reasonable alternatives to save the life of the unborn child were attempted or none were available.”

The bill does not provide an exception for rape or incest, a point that Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) took aim at on the House floor last week. Mace has blasted her party for its restrictive abortion policies.

The theocrats have hated women since Eve got mankind kicked out of the Garden, and women will pay for it. Odd that they never blame the snake, but that’s professional courtesy for ya.

    Hopefully this becomes more obvious to people as the years drift along:

    The ultimate goal in this so-called pro-life/pro-choice battle is the complete eradication of the women’s right to vote. Think it can’t happen here? Death penalty. For a medical procedure.

    Women’s Suffrage wasn’t granted (granted…that’s a laugh) until 1920, and that is not all that long ago.

    We must free those people kidnapped and frozen at fertility clinics, and register them as Republicans!
    By the way, does a fertilized sea urchin egg qualify?

    Nationalist Christians — The new “Nat-Cs”??? (Seems to be a safe “word” to get past comment “moderators” on some websites.)

    And they have the gall to call themselves Pro-Life? Don’t they listen to the crap that comes out of their own mouths? Being Pro-life and pro-Death Penalty cannot exist in the real world, sorry guys.

  5. It’s appalling that so much of the GOP these days is like “When do we get to start killin’ people?”

    It’s not easy being pro-life. Have to expect some casualties.
