Abortion Bill Extreme
A recent Post and Courier article reported that a South Carolina House bill proposes that women who get an abortion could be eligible for the death penalty. In opposing the bill, state Sen. Dick Harpootlian, D-Columbia, said this would be a stronger penalty for abortion than even the Taliban’s rule in Afghanistan, where the penalty for abortion is seven years in prison.
Why is a member of our Legislature trying to out-Taliban the Taliban?
Do you think government should be based on religious doctrine, that women should have fewer rights than men, that homosexuality should be outlawed, that religious doctrine trumps science, that there should be no separation of church and state, that religion should be taught in public schools, and that abortion should be illegal? These positions are held not only by extremist Muslims, but also by some extremists trying to control our state’s Republic Republican Party.
If you don’t want Sharia, don’t vote Republican.
