'Rape is NOT a 'misdeed.' Rape is an abhorrent crime. Rapists are NOT 'parents' and should have no rights as a 'parent.' Women and children who’re raped are NOT 'killers' and they do NOT have 'twisted logic,' Nancy Mace wrote on Facebook in response to a card written by an anti-abortion group.
South Carolina state Rep. Nancy Mace has become a focus of an anti-abortion group, as well as a fellow Republican lawmaker, following a speech where she advocated for rape and incest exemptions to a proposed abortion ban making its way through the state legislature.
South Carolina Rep. Nancy Mace has become the target of one of the state's anti-abortion groups after she advocated for the inclusion of rape and incest exemptions to a proposed abortion bill making its way through the state legislature. Mace revealed that she was a victim of rape as a teenager in a recent speech given to fellow lawmakers on the House floor. Nancy Mace
Like Georgia, South Carolina's proposed law will allow exceptions for women who are raped or whose children are conceived via incest, an exemption that Mace called for with her speech. “It is a twisted logic that would kill the unborn child for the misdeed of the parent,” the Personhood SC card reads.
"As a mom, I think about my children all the time and when I reflect on what happened to me... All I can say is the prospect of watching one of my children slowly fade away as a teenager like I did is terrifying. Unless you’ve walked in those shoes, you can’t comprehend the trauma," she continued."Women and children who’re raped are VICTIMS of an UNWANTED CRIME that is physically and emotionally TRAUMATIC.
On Wednesday, Personhood SC released a letter in response to Mace's social media posts, which read in part, “The problem of some is not the ‘poor wording’ of this sentence, but that these people just simply want abortion in cases of rape and incest." Magnuson passed the letter out to House members the same day.
