Pregnant Women's Rights Face Increasing Threats

State laws criminalizing fetal homicide are not new. Increasingly, abortion-rights opponents are using feticide and so-called "unborn victims of violence" laws to penalize women for pregnancy outcomes and turn pregnant women into criminals. However, women's health advocates around the country are fighting back.

1. To those woman hating assholes, any woman who becomes pregnant

immediately loses all her human rights, which are transferred to the newly fertilized egg.

These people are stuck in the Middle Ages, when people thought that women who miscarried were practicing witchcraft or otherwise doing mischief. If the miscarried fetus was obviously deformed, that was proof of her perfidy. It was enough for Henry VIII to trump up infidelity charges against Anne Boleyn and chop her head off.

Look to El Salvador for the laws they'd love to have, the ones that imprison women who have had miscarriages or stillbirths.
