Big Feminism – in this case, the always-puerile Jessica Valenti – is going after Idaho with the same nuanced grace as a Rashida Tlaib press conference.
They’re attacking over Idaho’s first prosecution in an “abortion trafficking” case:
Unmentioned (but for community notes) – the woman was impregnated by a rapist. The accused rapist and his mother allegedly kidnapped the pregnant woman and drove her to Idaho to destroy the evidence.
If they’d only driven to Minnesota…
The link is fascinating reading in a watching-a-train-wreck sort of way.
Consensual sexual relationship between underage kids becomes statutory rape when the boy ages out so rapist, yeah, but as Oprah says, not ‘rape-rape.’
Tranporting the teenaged female across state lines without parental consent to obtain an abortion, so kidnapping, yeah, but I’m having difficulty imagining the clinic staff strapping a fighting, screaming, crying teen mother on the table to force her to have a non-consensual abortion. I have suspicions about the young mother’s version of the story.
Released on their own recognisance until a hearing to determine if there’s enough evidence to go to trial? There’s cell phone video of the sex acts and a confession by the girl. How much more do you need? The only thing holding me from criticizing the girl’s father for failing to administer swift justice is the suspicion he’s nowhere to be found, he’s in a trailer park somewhere wearing a wife-beater t-shirt drinking Pabst Blue Ribbon while watching All Star Wrestling.
No wonder the Coastal Elite released a virus hoping to kill off everybody in fly-over land.
Sounds like rat Emery’s kind of White trash living. Lucky for him, he doesn’t have to leave Hack for recreational drugs, methadone or wammens health care to dispose of the products of his romances.
It’s worth noting that abortion clinics are mandatory reporters of things like statutory rape, which this appears to be. Was the report filed?
My thought is that some interventions are called for here, as mother of girl doesn’t appear to have paid much attention to who daughter was dating, and mother of boy is….a piece of work.
