Speaking of the failure in Mississippi on Tuesday, Mason said, "it's not because the people are not pro-life. It's because Planned Parenthood put a lot of misconceptions and lies in front of folks and created a lot of confusion."
Bullshit

First of all, miscarriage would've been criminalized if this amendment passed. Guess what? Miscarriage isn't the only thing that affects pro-choice women. It affects pro-life women too. It would be a major slap in a face to any woman to be call a criminal for miscarrying a pregnancy that they didn't A)know they were pregnant before hand and B)didn't know why they miscarried since the cause of miscarriage in the majority of pregnancies is not known. Not to mention, imagine how bad it would be to know that you were pregnant before hand...wanted to carry to term...and lost the pregnancy.

Second of all, people from your stance wouldn't be able to use IVF if they were infertile and still wanted the chance of having a baby of their own.

Third of all, many people on your stance do support birth control because they see that can prevent the need for abortion.

Fourth of all, many lifers do support abortion to save a woman's life if it's in danger.
