How to use rape in a sentence?
Chuck Schumer introduced legislation several months ago that would allow abortion on-demand up to the moment of birth, like China and North Korea, for the entire nation, what did I do in response? I said at 15 weeks when the baby can feel pain and sucks its thumb that we're gonna ban abortion except in the cases of rape, incest, life of the mother, we're talking almost four months into the pregnancy. It puts us in line with France, which is at 12 weeks. Germany, England is at 14 weeks. Only in Washington is it extreme to protect the baby at 15 weeks from an excruciating death.
Right now we all need to be focused on getting better. Not hiding on social media, participating in or being aware of actions that are disrespectful and harmful to other Marines. we will not be silenced. As a rape survivor I can tell you that this exact behavior leads to the normalization of sexual harassment and even sexual violence.
When we're talking about changing the constitution to strip people of the right to abortion, we're also really talking about what that means for survivors of rape and incest, we're also talking about what that means for... the criminalization of people who may be seeking to self-manage an abortion if they can't access a legal abortion in the state of Louisiana anymore.
It's a life. It's a rape, if we hadn't been negligent in letting them in here, it wouldn't have happened.
It is incredible in this day and age that one could even fathom that a legitimate rape victim was part of a conspiracy by a rival firm to harm Uber, sadly, these views, coupled with the scrutiny of private medical records, support rape culture and must end.
