Of course they are. This was entirely predictable.
“Republican states passed laws to empower domestic abusers” would be a great headline
You’d risk having them cheer over that.
Yeah and domestic abusers also use abortion itself to control their victims and continue abusing them. Abusers gonna abuse 😞
In the year before Roe fell, roughly 1,230 people told the National Domestic Violence Hotline that they had endured some kind of what anti-domestic abuse activists call “reproductive coercion,” including being denied an abortion or being forced into one. In the year since it was overturned, 2,442 people said the same. That’s a 99-percent increase.
Let’s not pretend that banning abortion just didn’t make any kind of difference.
