Protesters rally at Capitol in support of bill proposed in Oklahoma Legislature that would consider abortion a homicide


OKLAHOMA CITY — Waving handmade signs and chanting, hundreds of people flooded the Capitol on Tuesday in support of proposed legislation that would make abortion illegal in Oklahoma.

Among them were Oklahoma-based Free the States. The pro-life group is seeking a hearing on Senate Bill 13 crafted by Sen. Joseph Silk, R-Broken Bow. The measure would make abortion a homicide.

The bill has been assigned to the Senate Health and Human Services Committee, chaired by Sen. Jason Smalley, R-Stroud.

Smalley, who is anti-abortion, said he had some problems with the language of the bill. Silk had agreed to make some changes, Smalley said.

I told you all they were gonna do.

I told everybody this for over 20 years now and every single time I say it I am ASSURED that it cant ever happen. That the GOP will never allow the overturning of Roe because they dont wanna lose their cash (politically speaking) cow. And when sort of rational cons were in charge that was probably true, they arent anymore.

MAYBE the Chief Justice saves this country, maybe he doesnt. If he doesnt you can expect very very very big problems. If the Russians or rump are allowed another SC pick, cant be fixed short of a Democrat increasing the size of the court.
