Is Ohio's new abortion law gambling?

If a person wants to gamble,
play casino classic.
Don't play around with legal issues. What
exactly is Ohio's abortion law? Abotions are legal in Ohio up to 6
weeks, also known as the "heartbeat law". Six weeks
is six weeks from a woman's last period, or 2 weeks after missing their next
period. Unless a woman is new to getting their period, or they have
non-regular cycles, most women know by 2 weeks after a missed period that they
missed their period, and that they should take a pregnancy test. Not to
mention that by this point, most women start to feel morning sickness, so they
know that something is not right. There are exceptions if the women's
life is in danger, for example, an Ectopic pregnancy. There are no exceptions for rape or
incest. In terms of rape (unless the woman
is not thinking correctly emotionally), you go to the police, hospital, doctor,
emergency women's clinic, or if you are a child, even the school nurse.
This should be done right after the rape, so a formal police report can be
filed, and a "rape kit" can be done. The rape kit is crucial if
you want to make sure the A-hole is put in jail for the maximum amount of time
allowed by law. Also, a pregnancy test can be given,
and if the woman wants it, a morning-after pill can be administered.
Even if a woman decides she wants to keep the child or give the
child up for adoption, knowing she is pregnant as early as possible is
critical. I can't speak for anybody else, but
if I was a rape victim and I did not want to keep the child, I would at least
want to know that my child was going to a good home that would love and care
for the child as if it was their own. The earlier that is taken care of,
the better emotionally I would be to handle the pregnancy. Is
the Ohio 10 year old rape victim story true? On June 10, 2022, a "Tre'Shawn
L. Griffin, 23, was arraigned in Portage County Court of Common Pleas Friday on
five counts of first-degree felony rape in a grand jury indictment. Judge Becky
Doherty ordered the bond during the arraignment, with a condition that he have
no contact with the girl." "According to the indictment,
Griffin allegedly raped the girl during a six-month period between Sept. 1,
2021 and March 1, when the girl was 10. A warrant was issued for
Griffin's arrest after the indictment was filed on May 16. Griffin was booked
into Portage County Jail on Thursday morning, according to a jail booking
log." That is a period of 6 months when this 10 year little girl was
raped again and again and again and again and again and again ... you get
the idea. In Brazil, a 10 year old rape victim
was denied an abortion by a judge and prosecutor. "A serial rapist has been
sentenced to 35 years in prison for sexually assaulting a 7-year-old across
multiple states. Joseph C. Gaines, 42, pleaded guilty in November 2021 to
transporting a minor interstate with the intention of sexually abusing the victim,
and committing a new offense against a minor as a registered sex offender,
according to a release from US Attorney Kenneth Parker in the Southern District
of Ohio. " "Two men have been indicted by
a Hocking County grand jury on charges that two years ago they both raped a
6-year-old child. " (April 17, 2021) Bottom line is that bad people still
exist in "good communities". But the question that comes to my
mind about the man who was charged on June 10, 2022 is "What happened on
March 1, 2021 that caused the rapes of this young girl to stop?" A
man who was getting away with rape for 6 months is not going to stop of his own
free will. Did this girl finally have somebody tell her that rape is
wrong and the guy should be put in jail? Or did the girl get pregnant,
and that is how the abuse finally stopped? If it is the later, then yes
and no this story is true. Yes, it did happen to a 10 year old girl, but
no, it did not happen in 2022, it happened in 2021. What
are the statistics on abortions by age in the US? What
are the abortion rates for women under the age of 15? I don't know the exact reason why
the numbers went up and then down, but part of it definitely has to do with the
morning after pill. In the <15 age group (14 and
under), a vast majority of them are 14 year olds. The average female will get their
first period between 11 and 14 years of age, but getting your first period at
10 or 15 is still considered within the range of normal. So is a 10 year old rape victim
getting pregnant considered "within the range of normal (aka realistically
possible)", the answer is yes. If 10 year olds are getting raped and
10 year olds are getting their period, then 10 year olds can get pregnant due
to rape. What
is the youngest age of woman can deliver a child? Source: Wired Magazine May 2007,
"May 14, 1939: A
5-Year-Old Becomes Youngest Mother on Record" 5 years old. "939: Lina
Medina becomes the youngest confirmed mother in recorded medical history,
delivering a son at the age of 5. The Peruvian child delivered a 5-pound,
8-ounce boy via caesarean section; her small pelvis made it impossible for the
baby to pass through the birth canal." Lina had her first menstrual
cycle when she was only eight months old; her breasts were almost completely
developed by the time she was 4. "Lina’s condition, known as
precocious puberty, was an extreme case, so much so that the story was
dismissed as a hoax by many. But doctors X-rayed the fetus’ skeleton in utero
and provided a picture of Lina, taken late in her pregnancy. The photograph,
shot in profile, proves not only the pregnancy but shows the extent of her
sexual development." "The baby, a boy named Gerardo,
was healthy. He grew up normally (his mother’s true identity was revealed to
him when he was 10) but died at 40 from a bone-marrow disease." "Paternity remains a mystery.
Lina’s father was arrested on suspicion of rape and incest but the charges were
later dropped for lack of evidence. Lina, who is still living, has never
divulged a name and, indeed, may not know." The son died in 1979, so given the
technology that exists today, theoretically, it could be determined if the
father was a relative, but it seems as if the mother does not want to learn the
truth. What
should the law be? In my opinion, cases like a 10 year
old rape victim or even a 5 year old rape victim are outliers. They will
always exist, and they will always be the rare exception, but they will never
go away. The only solution that I can come up
with is to create a committee where women can state their case in cases of
rape, incest, severe birth defects, or a women's life being in danger. 1% of pregnancies are due to rape or
incest. 10% are due to fetal abnormalities. Ectopic pregnancies
"Clinical presentation of ectopic pregnancy occurs at a mean of 7.2 weeks
after the last normal menstrual period, with a range of four to eight weeks.
Later presentations are more common in communities deprived of modern
diagnostic ability. " All of these cases are the
exception, and the "right" answer is not an easy answer. At
first, the women may think that aboriton is the right choice to a point where
they are willing to travel to another state to get one. In some cases,
like ectopic pregnancies, they may be right. But in cases of rape, incest, or
fetal abnormality, finding adoption parents and arranging the adoption right
then and there (very short notice), may change a woman's mind. Parents standing before the mother
telling her that they will take care of her child and raise it and love it as
their own, may be what the mother needs to hear to stop a women from gong to
another state to get an abortion. In rape cases (when the baby is
healthy), finding adoption parents on short notice would not be too
difficult. But in cases of fetal abnormality, that may be more complicated
(less volunteers).
