A measure introduced in the Legislature would make Texas the first state in the country to essentially allow women to kill their newborn babies, and face relatively minor punishment for it.
State Rep Jessica Farrar (D-Houston), has introduced a bill to create a new crime called 'infanticide.'
It would allow postpartum mental disorder to be sued as an affirmative defense against a murder charge, if a mother murders a child 12 months old or less.
Under Farrar's bill, if jurors find a mother guilty of murder, they could take testimony about postpartum issues into consideration during the punishment phase of the trial.
If jurors find that the mother's 'judgment was impaired because of childbirth of lactation,' they could then judge her guilty not of murder but of 'infanticide,' which would carry a punishment of no more than two years in a state jail.
Murder is a Class A felony, punishable by up to 99 years in prison. In the case of a mother who kills a child, that time is now spent in the state's maximum security prison for women in Gatesville.
Farrar says postpartum depression is recognized as a legal defense in 29 nations worldwide.
“If only one child is saved than it will be worth it”
Introducing this bill and getting it passed are two very different things.
Planned Parenthood will probably step in to demand that the murders only be performed at PP approved abortuaries.
You can bet that DemocRats, no matter where they are,
will introduce evil ideas into government,
every one of which diverts the consequences from the guilty to the innocent.
Well, if the murderous mom were just to pay some sort of fee or tribute to PP, then all would be forgiven.
Throwing in mandatory sterilization for such a woman might be prudent.
This democrat State Rep. is a survivor of an abortion. It is obvious because they sucked out her brains.
Heck, go to Sweetwater Post Natal Abortion Clinic and there's no limit!

(((((( crickets ))))))
Post birth abortion? Disgusting ... this will not pass in Texas.
[If jurors find that the mother’s ‘judgment was impaired because of childbirth of lactation,’ they could then judge her guilty not of murder but of ‘infanticide,’ which would carry a punishment of no more than two years in a state jail. ]
THAT IS JUST STUPID!
We need to put a stop to this right now.
Wonder whether it would have the same support if the bill defined the word “child” to include the meaning of “state legislator”...
I believe they already proposed that a while back... no that was China.
for every abortion they perform, they were claiming that they saved the earth X tons of carbon that that person would produce in her lifetime. I specifically say “her” because male babies aren’t often aborted.
Apparently some Democrats want to kill you for being too young and not perfect in their eyes, or too old and too much of a financial burden to the state to be allowed to live.
These people are the scum of the earth. They bristle if their patriotism is questioned. If anyone points out that their ideas resemble those of the Nazis they have a fit, but that is who they are.
Seven trimesters... Who knew?
