Kamala Harris Calls Pro-Life Americans “Extremists” for Trying to Ban Abortion
The Vice President pointed to the “suffering” of women in pro-life states but ignored suffering of tens of millions of unborn babies
Vice President Kamala Harris recently described lawmakers seeking to restrict or ban abortion as “extremists.”
In an interview with actress Sofia Bush, Harris also repeated a patent falsehood about the state of abortion legislation in the United States.
“State after state, we have seen extremists, so-called leaders, propose and pass laws that would criminalize health care providers, some of them literally legislating prison for life, punishing women, making no exception even for rape and incest,” Harris claimed.
LifeNews notes that not a single state law in the United States either before or after Roe v. Wade was overturned would legally punish abortion-seeking women. Rather, abortionists are subject to legal and professional repercussions for committing abortions.
“We are looking at a situation in our country where there are people who are literally suffering, many, most, silently suffering because of what has been proposed and or passed in states across our country,” Harris nonetheless declared. “The topic for today, here, is the topic of what has happened in our country after the Dobbs decision, which took away the rights of people to make decisions for their own body.”
The implication is stomach-churning; ignoring the suffering of millions of unborn babies sentenced to death at the hands of abortionists, Harris is suggesting that women who carry their babies to full term are “silently suffering” as a result of not having access to a fatal abortion procedure.
Women have rights to their own bodies — but no one has a right to kill anyone else. Even when that person is growing inside of a woman’s body.
