Except those of children. Alabama is ranked number 42/50 in overall in child well-being.

Except pregnant women. Only 17 of Alabama's 67 counties offering obstetrical care.

Except Black women. Black women in Alabama disproportionately die of cervical cancer, a completely preventable death.

Dems want candidates to sign a “unity pledge” to have a “constructive” primary, highlight “shared values,” & immediately get behind the eventual nominee.

They want Dem voters not to criticize their candidate’s opponents.

In other words, no accountability for their records.

1/8
Problem: Dems running for president want Black votes without appearing beholden to Black voters.

They can’t win without our votes, but neither want to be held accountable for how their policies devastated Black communities nor promulgate a plan to address Black issues.

2/8
Dems hem, haw, and stutter to answer questions regarding reparations and a Black agenda because, in order not to offend other constituencies, they feel the necessity to distance themselves from policies that might seem to disproportionately help Black people.

3/8

I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. I’m not going to do that on the #Alabama assault on choice. Let’s just be clear, this has nothing to do with religion, or protecting children.
1. This isn’t about some insistence on Christian principles. Jesus gave us his commands- to love thy neighbor, to heal the sick, and give back to the poor. Do you see Alabama doing anything about the poor?
2. Most of Christianity opposes the death penalty. Has Alabama taken recent steps to eliminate it? Let me know.

#Alabama #Abortion -

What have you done Alabama?

You've made it that "irresponsible" sex that leads to the creation of new life forces women to carry to term. OK. What is your justification?

Lets extrapolate.
Clearly the value placed on human life is high enough that you are seeking to protect the unborn.

Prioritising their well being over the pregnant woman. Even if you feel the woman has rights, you place the rights of the unborn first.
I don't feel this is an unfair appraisal of the situation...

Criminalising the act of abortion, as a deterrent. But what is it intended to deter?

Abortion - clearly. But is that the intention here? Isn't it "Promiscuous" sex that is the "sin" you are looking to combat?

Alabama Senate passes nation’s most restrictive abortion law, which makes no exceptions for victims of rape and incest. Brett ""I LIKE BEER" Kavanaugh is on SCOTUS so why not?!

Governor signs Alabama abortion ban, which has galvanized support on both sides, setting up a lengthy fight
wapo.st/2Q7ZfEP
What is with the #AlabamaSenate and their support of rape and incest? Bc that's what this is. If you want to have a baby with a woman in #Alabama you can just rape her and be out of jail in a few years (if that) and enjoy joint custody of the child. Its disgusting #BoycottAlabama

Alabama Sen. Clyde Chambliss while introducing a bill that could nearly end abortions in the state: “I’m not trained medically...but there’s some period of time when you know a woman to be pregnant”

Lawmakers are expected to amend it soon #alpolitics
buzzfeednews.com/article/salvad…
Republican male Alabama senator on the controversial abortion bill: "I'm not trained medically so I don't know all the proper timelines...Once that person is known to be pregnant then this bill will take into effect. That bill will highlight that period of time" 🤔🤔
Sen. Rodger Smitherman, a Democrat, says the bill "is going to be unconstitutional... It does not make sense that we are going to spend millions and millions of dollars to take something up that will be declared totally unconstitutional."

This morning, I looked up one of the many state legislators sponsoring these horrific ideas to criminalize abortion. His page cited protection of "innocent" life as a priority and it struck me: they see women as evil. Babies are innocent; women aren't. It goes back to Eve. 1/
Eve tempted Adam into sin, and women suffer pain in childbirth as punishment. So all women are inherently sinful in the eyes of Evangelical "Christians."

We can never be as valuable as innocent babies, even when those "babies" are just clumps of cells. We are expendable. /fin
