It’s like they can’t help themselves, you know? They open their mouths and egregiously offensive remarks about rape start pouring out:
A Republican congressional candidate says abortion should not be legal, even when it involves “the rape thing,” according to audio provided Wednesday to The Associated Press. An activist working on behalf of liberal group FUSE Washington asked questions of Republican hopeful John Koster during a fundraiser Sunday. Koster said he does not oppose abortion when the life of the mother is in danger but then explains he would oppose it when it involves rape or incest. Koster twice uses the phrase “the rape thing” when describing his views, first saying that he knows a woman who was raped and gave up the child for adoption without any regrets. “But on the rape thing, it’s like, how does putting more violence onto a woman’s body and taking the life of an innocent child that’s a consequence of this crime, how does that make it better?” Koster said in the exchange.
You’d think that with juts a few days to go before the elections these folks would be able to control their idiocy at least somewhat. But no, the hatred of women is so overpowering that they are like an addict in need of a fix. And see the entire, “a woman I know feels this, ergo all women in the universe feel the same thing because women are like robots that respond the same when you press a button”? Woman-hating at its best. I wish somebody asked him if he noticed any difference between women and cell phones. Also note the utter incapacity to process the concept of consent.
Scary shit, folks. Go vote. Keep Koster and Co out of our bodies and our public spaces, too.
