Fox Nation host and conservative commentator Tomi Lahren weighed in on Alabama's new law banning nearly all abortions in the state, calling the legislation "too restrictive."
Lahren wrote on Twitter Thursday that the near-total abortion ban forces women into more dangerous methods.
I will be attacked by fellow conservatives for saying this but so be it, this Alabama abortion ban is too restrictive, she wrote. It doesnt save life, it simply forces women into more dangerous methods, other states or countries.
"You dont encourage life via blanket government mandate! she added.
Lahren's comments came one day after Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey (R) signed a law banning abortion in almost all cases, including rape or incest

The extrajudicial taking of life is murder or it is not murder.
Either murder is illegal, or it is not illegal.
You cant have it both ways.
A fetus is an unborn child. The murder of a child is illegal everywhere in the US except a womb. Why?
An out of control rebellious group of black robes "found" abortion in the Constitution and other out of control humans jumped all over that James Bond, license to kill.
The root of Conservative is conserve and conserve is to save.
Hasn’t she always been really weak on this issue?
I think both sides of the rape/invest issue have different frames of reference. They will never come to an understanding. I understand the need for rape/incest exceptions, and all the somber stories about raped women having their child is not going to change the mind of a woman who feels she cant carry the child as a result of rape. Tomi is correct, in this case the woman may well result to an unsafe method to abort. Rape and incest exceptions need to be included. SCOTUS can still come to a desirable conclusion.
Would it be possible to give morgana a “Q” style sandbox? It’s just not worth visiting here with all the spam.
The law against murder is too restrictive. It forces some people to hide their killing.
Under the premise that Rape & incest (R&I) was used to crack open Pandora’s box, pave the way for Roe: Perhaps to close the box back, we need to go back in steps, to where R&I abortions are still legal, and the momentum of closing helps close Pandora’s completely.
But, any abortion where the mortal health of the mom is not at high risk, is still murder of an innocent human.
We, as a society kill based on assuming innocence, DNA evidence, providing a lawyer, having a trial, with a jury.
For the pre-born, we assume guilt, no lawyer provided, no trial. The “woman and her doctor” are judge, jury and executioner all in one.
Yes. A very good question which those in favor of taking life have no legitimate answer.
I’ve read some stories about rape victims giving birth to the child. “This child turned something terrible into something beautiful!” type stuff.
And if the woman wants to kill it, what’s keeping them from driving over to Mississippi or wherever?
Oops - she does say “other states”. Heck - I know people that will travel to another state to buy stuff tax free.
Beck has some faults, no doubt, but he is right on this issue and he is steadfast.
That's a political consideration that would never hold up under any legitimate system of law. The law doesn't allow for selective victimization of people, and if an unborn child is recognized as a person then what you're proposing can't stand up to any legal scrutiny.
Is five year-old child subject to less protection under the law than his "normal" peers just because his father was a rapist?
scotus conclusion should be it is up to individual states as the constitution requires. pre roe v wade there were certain states, calif and new york as well as foreign countries where abortion was legal..

The pendulum has swung the other way, and now, even conservatives are crying about it. Too bad.
Did she speak out against NY State’s law?
>>>A fetus is an unborn child. The murder of a child is illegal everywhere in the US except a womb. Why?
Under this law, will all miscarriages need to be investigated to confirm that the fetus was not murdered?
Yes indeed
“The root of Conservative is conserve and conserve is to save. “
Here is the thing. For rape and possibly incest, a woman is not agreeing to have sex. She isn’t agreeing to produce a child nor is she agreeing to be responsible for this act. In other words, her reproductive rights are being violated.
In this instance, taking something like RU486 makes sense. What doesn’t make sense is carrying the baby for 20+ weeks after a rape then deciding you don’t want it.
Alabama should change the rape and incest piece of the legislation, but still keep the heartbeat piece intact. Seriously, if the woman can’t make up her mind after 24 hours whether she wants to keep the baby after being raped, there are bigger problems going on.
I understand the rape issue but in the end it's either murder or it isn't. If Roe was overturned and the only thing left was the rape exception there is going to be a whole lot of men facing rape charges. Murder is wrong no matter the circumstance so in the end there can be no exceptions.
