When Senator Kamala Harris was the attorney general in California, she prosecuted the Center for Medical Progress’s David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt, ordering a police raid on Daleiden’s office and home for video footage that exposed and embarrassed Planned Parenthood for its scheme to sell the body parts of aborted babies.
While running for the U.S. Senate, she urged supporters on her web site also to support Planned Parenthood. And that’s not all.
Conflict, anyone?
So it comes as no surprise that this same woman just equated so-called women’s rights with killing unborn babies at 20 weeks.
Once again, Republican lawmakers are trying to take away women’s right to make their own choices about their bodies. Add your name if you’re as sick and tired as I am of Republicans playing politics with our reproductive health: https://t.co/Q0wquwR68y

Pro-lifers definitely did not like it. Twitchy posted some disapproving tweets:
Frankly, Ms Harris, many of us are sick of those who call themselves Americans, playing politics with the lives of the unborn. Stop covering the crime of wantonly killing the defenseless with deceptive words like reproductive health. Abortion is neither healthy or productive.

Nobody cares what you do with your body Senator.
It’s when you kill someone else’s body that decent people object.

A couple more found on Twitter:
Respectfully, no Ms. Harris. They’re standing up 4 those who don’t have a voice. Women can do anything they damn well want 2 their body but killing a human is something people want to fight 4. As science progresses, it’ll become clear your party took the same stance as slavery.

The fetus can definitively feel pain after 20 weeks. I couldn’t care less if a women wanted to remove her kidney, get a tongue piercing, or inject testosterone. But the fetus has it’s own seperate nervous system. The point is, the fetus isn’t her body.
