Oklahoma GOPer Proposes Bill To Outlaw ‘Aborted Human Fetuses’ In Food | TPMMuckraker

Though he has allowed that he is not aware of this occurring in Oklahoma, or anywhere for that matter, Shortey cited research he did on the internet that claimed that some companies use embryonic stem cells to help develop artificial flavoring. “It would be a public relations nightmare for a company to use” aborted human fetuses for R&D, Shortey told KRMG Radio, so when asked they usually say something like “we strive to do things ethically.”

“I’m not entirely sure if there are any” companies doing this, he continued. “But the fact is that there is a potential that there are companies that are using aborted human babies in their research and development of basically enhancing flavor for artificial flavors. And if that is happening — because it is a possibility — and if it’s happening then I just don’t think it should even be an option for a company.”

Shortey added that if you took this idea to its logical conclusion, you could “force every human being” to be an organ donor, “and that’s kind of what we’re doing with these children. Before they’re born, we’re going to kill them and then we can do anything we want to with your body.”

Once again, I am reminded that Republicans do not consider women (or anyone else who can get pregnant) to be people. It’s totally cool to force women to bear children against their will, but fetuses are people who shouldn’t be exploited.

Right.

Fuck you, Republicans and other anti-choicers.

It’s real?! It’s actually fucking real? I posted the Alex Jones link earlier because I think Alex Jones is a ridiculous person, like the living embodiment of The Onion. But this guy actually does worry hes been drinking fetuses?!
