>According to a study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, an estimated 26,000 women in Texas became pregnant after rape since the state implemented a total abortion ban. This is about 40% of the total number of rape-related pregnancies in the 14 states that have implemented total abortion bans since the 2022 Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.
>Dr. Samuel Dickman, a co-author of the study and abortion provider, was shocked by the numbers. He said, “It’s hard to comprehend” to be confronted with these estimates in states where there’s no meaningful abortion access.

That doesn’t sound right, because our Governor said he was going to stop rape.

To the repugnants this is going to plan. They see so many benefits in this situation. I could list a dozen reasons this makes them happy I’ll start with punishment for being a woman that got herself raped.

You mean, “Working as Intended”?
I love it when people tell me to move to Texas coz of the “low taxes”. Like there is a reason why they have to incentivize you to move there, ya know?

Texas has one star on their flag. It’s a Yelp review.

Got to keep those call centers and private prisons churning.

Set aside, for a moment, the issue of forced births, I didn’t realize that Texas was so rapey. Family values? Conservatism? Republican control of state government? Add that all together and I guess you get a culture of rape.

Did Texas hold them hostage and force them to have the baby?

Who the fuck is raping all of these women.
Seriously. WTF?

I thought Abbott said he was gonna stop all the rapes before they happened

Getting rid of illegal and legal immigrants will keep cheap labor from MAGA capitalists, so they will need a cheap work force for their economic agenda… hence, more births to lower economic population is needed to feed the machine…

MAGA-cult hypocrites are okay with kids getting gunned down at school but somehow also think a fetus must be protected at all costs even if it means killing the mother. Go figure

That’s just the number of women raped who got pregnant. What’s the total number of rapes?

Since it is Texas, where women are treated like trash- this is to be expected. Texas fails to realize the reality of unwanted babies because they are valuable before they are born -not after

This sounds like success to the Republican party.

This is what conservative “morality” looks like:
