Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal (R) signed a bill into law yesterday that requires women's health clinics to post signage notifying patients of alternatives to abortion.
At the signing ceremony, Jindal said he was proud to help make his state one that supports a "culture of life," adding that women will soon be treated similarly to criminals who are read their rights after an arrest.
"When officers arrest criminals today, they are read their rights," he said, according to a report by Louisiana paper The News-Star. "Now if we're giving criminals their basic rights and they have to be informed of those rights, it seems to me only common sense we would have to do the same thing for women before they make the choice about whether to get an abortion."
Because abortion is a crime, see? And women who get them are criminals, and should therefore be treated as such. "Culture of life" applies only to the unborn. Once you're actually brought into this world, Republicans could give a damn about you.
