Penguins, Salmons or Criminals? Which Most Resemble Women?



Forced birthers do have weird ideas about women and their reproductive choices (which should not exist, naturally). Some of those ideas I wrote about in an earlier post. But Governor Bobby Jindal added "criminals" to the list of items which are like women:
Republican Gov. Bobby Jindal signed Louisiana's new anti-abortion law Wednesday, and linked women who seek abortions to criminals being Mirandized:
"When officers arrest criminals today, they are read their rights," he said. "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."
Jindal is an American Talibani, by the way. Not by religion but by his views on women.
