Weird way to phrase “school shootings” but that’s one way to tackle the gun problem. Reframe it
Trump and many other Republicans also say this ridiculous statement.
lol this is something my mom used to say when I was a teen: "I wonder of its too late for an abortion?"
Ma is a real card...
Maybe he can be the first to experience it then.
And, I really doubt that any states ever have allowed that.
Considering "post-birth abortion" isn't a thing and never has been, you'd likely be right.
Can we make a new rule, such that if a GOPer says it, we assume it is false unless and until they provide a significant level of proof to go along with their statement. Then if that proof can be verified, we assume that they stole the information from someone else. Those in favor?

Isn't that just called murder? I'm pretty sure that's something he should know already...
Some places have a separate crime of infanticide. I know the UK also has a crime of Causing or Allowing the death of a child.
