    If you are wondering why, she said this, it’s part of a pattern of spreading misinformation about abortions that has been happening as long as people want to keep other people from having them.

    The goal is to scare vulnerable women away from the resources that can help them and to make it easier to prosecute anyone who has been found to help them by conflating them with drug dealers.

    It adds to the cloud of confusion that desperate women must cut through in order to gain access to the resources they need, and for some of those women, it will push the window out too far for them to have an abortion that they can afford, or cause them to give up, and just have the baby they don’t want, damn the costs.

    Since they see this as saving a baby’s life, they don’t have any ethical issues whatsoever with lying like this.

      Right so then she is just a dumb evil cunt that doesn’t deserve to be anywhere near public office. Got it.

      All these glaringly obvious issues that will never be taken care of because we give people too much freedom. That statement alone should get her fired and not allow her to be in office anywhere ever again.

    Hopefully the manufacturers of mifepristone and misoprostol, Danco and Pfizer respectively, sue the ever loving shit out if this woman.

    Assuming that fentanyl was in the abortion pill… then it has become the safest way to ingest it.

    https://nida.nih.gov/research-topics/trends-statistics/overdose-death-rates

    Fentanyl deaths are in grey. As you can see 60,000 - 70,000 people in 2021. That number will spike in 2023.

    However the abortion pill by those same statistics, they only managed to find 9 people who took the pill and died thereafter between the years 2000 and 2023.

    Note, they did not die from the abortion pill, but because of what happened right after:

    The deaths included: 9 (45.00%) sepsis, 4 (20.00%) drug toxicity/overdose, 1 (5.00%) ruptured ectopic pregnancy, 1 (5.00%) hemorrhage, 3 (15.00%) possible homicides, 1 (5.00%) suicide, 1 (5.00%) unknown. (Table 1).

    Leaving us with a possible 4 people within 20 years that would have died to POSSIBLE Fentanyl overdoes as a causality in the past 20 years.

    Making it the safest way you could take the drug.

    Note: The following is sarcasm. Please do not take the abortion pill because you actually think it actually has fentanyl.

    The legal representation of the voting machine companies are a box of pupies compared to the big pharma lawyers. IANAL, but this sounds like textbook defamation.

      I don’t know why you are being downvoted like that but it’s true. She should get sued for defamation by the company’s making these drugs. And she should have to prove her stance too!
