Dear Republicans, Shame on you for making it harder for women to report rape
HuffPo ^ | 5/4/17 | Dani Bostick

By making rape-related medical treatment a preexisting condition, you have become an ally of rapists.

It is hard being the victim of a sex crime, and you just made it harder by voting for a healthcare bill that includes an amendment making the medical treatment of rape a preexisting condition. You’ve provided one more obstacle for women who want to bring their perpetrators to justice. This latest impediment to reporting is not only unfair, it will make our communities less safe.

Wow, this takes dirty-pool politics to a new low. Rape victims won't report the crimes because their healthcare insurance won't cover the medical costs? Uhm, whatever you say, lady. Nuts.

“———amendment making the medical treatment of rape a preexisting condition.”

This makes no sense to me.

Hypergamy feminine imperative jut labeling anything they don’t like as misogyny. Broken record. Just like the race card.

If the libtards say something is so, that’s all the proof I need to know it is NOT so. Lying sacks of excrement.

Huh?

Since when is “medical treatment” a “pre-existing condition”? This idiot doesn’t know English.

And since when is a particular condition DEFINED as a “pre-existing condition” and some other condition DEFINED as not a “pre-existing condition.”

Prediction: Every woman who is raped and wants to be treated will be treated. This is nothing but anti-Republican hallucinating by a loon.

Dear Conservatives, thanks for backing the 2nd Amendment that makes it easier for women to let would-be rapists know there will be consequences.

The media has been told in their Journolist to create outrageous health stories and pin the word “Republican” in it. The hysterical crap doesn’t fly like it used to.

Yeah, because Planned Parenthood reports all patients of rape, child molestation and incest. /sarc

Yes..rape has been considered a pre existing condition I the past...especially when it comes to mental health issues and substance abuse.

They could also use it for hiv that shows up later.etc

OK but the argument is that this is somehow going to dissuade women from reporting the crime? That is a reaaaaaaach, to say the least.

Not the government’s place to tell insurance companies who they have to sell policies to.
