Hypocrites being hypocritical about their own hypocritical beliefs.
Fuck these hypocritical Republican Christian assholes with their “unintended” consequences.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Many clinics paused IVF services last month after the procedure was thrown into uncertain legal territory by the state Supreme Court’s ruling that frozen embryos are “children” with a constitutional right to life.
State legislators moved quickly to pass a bill that would allow IVF treatments to resume after intense criticism and outcry from patients, parents, and medical professionals.
“The last couple of weeks have been devastating for people and they’ve been left in the lurch of what’s going to happen,” says O’Brien, who is herself pregnant through IVF and sympathizes with those who were in the middle of their treatment when the court ruling forced a pause.
Still, he argued, his immunity bill accomplishes the short term goal of allowing people to resume treatment without fear that another change to state law could lead to future prosecution.
Democratic state Rep. Chris England worried that once an immunity bill is signed, lawmakers will lose their sense of urgency and fail to revisit the question of embryonic personhood.
In a speech that included quotes from the Bible, the TV show Reacher, and the lyrics of 90’s rapper Vanilla Ice, Yarbrough introduced an amendment to the bill to add that “immunity will not be provided to a person who intentionally causes the death of an unborn child.”
