Lege Declares KY Women Sub-Human

UPDATE Below.

From the Herald:

Within minutes after the Kentucky Senate approved a bill Wednesday that restricts abortions, the American Civil Liberties Union said it will file a lawsuit against it on behalf of the only remaining abortion provider in the state.

The Senate gave final passage to House Bill 5 on a 32-4 vote and sent it to Republican Gov. Matt Bevin.

Bevin indicated on social media that he will sign it into law. “Bring it!” said Bevin. “Kentucky will always fight for life... Always!”

But never for the life of actual adult, living, breathing women.  To Bevin, tumors have rights, but women are just incubators.  

As for actual living, breathing children, Bevin has stripped away their healthcare in his Medicaid destruction, condemned them to death by freezing waiting for school buses, and accused their teachers of abandoning them to rapists and molesters.

The bill would take effect immediately upon his signature.

It basically bars a woman from having an abortion if she decided to have one because of a fetal diagnosis. It also would ban abortions based on the sex, race, national origin or ancestry of the fetus.

After the Senate vote, the ACLU said in a release it will file a lawsuit on behalf of EMW Women’s Surgical Center in Louisville, the only licensed center in Kentucky offering abortion services.

“Decisions about whether to end a pregnancy must be made by the woman and her family. But this law takes the decision away from them and hands it over to politicians,” Brigitte Amiri, deputy director with the ACLU Reproductive Freedom Project, said in a release.

“Kentucky women must be able to have private conversations with their health care providers and must be able to decide whether to have an abortion. We see this legislation for exactly what it is — part of a campaign to prevent a woman from obtaining an abortion if she needs one — and we won’t stand for it.”

Heather Gatnarek, staff attorney at the ACLU of Kentucky, said passage of the bill “represents a thinly veiled effort of the Kentucky General Assembly to advance their anti-abortion agenda under the guise of an anti-discrimination bill.

“This law will do nothing to improve the lives of Kentuckians with disabilities. In fact, a number of bills that would have addressed health care, housing and updated anti-discrimination protections were not even given a hearing of this legislation session.”

Crystal Staley, a spokeswoman for Attorney General Andy Beshear, who is a Democratic candidate for governor this year, said Wednesday night Beshear “thinks this legislative session was an opportunity to come together and get things done on jobs, the opioid crisis and protecting access to health car

“Unfortunately, we have instead seen the legislature focus on issues that divide us. A challenge to this legislation has already been announced and he believes the challenge will be successful in court.”

18 Kentucky "Democrats" voted for this abomination. Haven't confirmed names yet, but when I do I will post them.

This isn't about "life," it ain't about women's health and it sure as fuck ain't about helping children, who by the way, don't exist in any uterus.

UPDATE: The companion "fetal heartbeat" bill that outlaws abortion in Kentucky, has been blocked by a federal judge.  Give ALL your monies to the ACLU of Kentucky right now.  It is the only thing protecting civilization from Bevin the Hun right now.
