that is a really really difficult discussion to have it's never right there is no good answer but at the same time the way the law is now and we see it all the time if a child is being molested and she becomes pregnant at 13 or 14 or 15 the family takes her to have an abortion the only person who wins in that scenario is the person who was abusing her while proponents of the text want it to include few exceptions to see it potentially go all the way up to the supreme court and maybe even overturn roe v wade itself opponents of the bill accuse state lawmaker has of playing politics with women's bodies one of them is margo hotline dressed as a handmade the pro-choice activists protested on the steps of the state government as the bill was passed and my. personal stake in this is that i was for 3 years a victim of continuous sexual assaults and i did think that i was pregnant when i
