Horror Stories Await Ohio in Issue 1
Ohio voters, who overwhelmingly oppose abortion-up-to-birth, will evaluate a cunningly worded amendment on Tuesday that would grant Ohio’s constitutional blessing to just that — plus a range of other deadly procedures — under the guise of “reproductive rights.”
Contrary to the rhetoric of abortion activists, out-of-state donors, and biased media, Ohio’s Issue 1 is not a compromise or a sensible proposal. It’s a radical change that would enshrine late-term abortions, abortions for minors without parental consent, fertility-damaging drug regimens and surgeries for confused teenagers, and other horrors into the Ohio Constitution.
Here are a few chilling stories that Issue 1 would invite to happen in Ohio.
Idaho Rapist Trafficked His Minor Victim to Get an Abortion
In Idaho, a 15-year-old girl became the victim of statutory rape. When she became pregnant, the rapist and his mother took her to Oregon for an abortion without her mother’s consent. The abortionist proceeded with the procedure, with the alleged rapist waiting nearby. This tragic incident highlights the danger of Issue 1, which would allow minors to undergo abortions without parental knowledge or approval.
Yaeli Killed Herself After Being Put on Hormones and Taken from Her Mother
A teenager named Yaeli, influenced by her school counselor and LGBT groups, developed gender dysphoria and was put on hormones without her mother’s permission. This led to a downward spiral that ultimately ended in her tragic suicide. Issue 1 would not only allow minors to access abortions without parental consent but also subject them to irreversible fertility-impeding treatments and surgeries.
Unwanted Baby Ripped from Mother’s Womb After Reaching Viability
A married woman named Autumn discovered she was pregnant when she went for an abortion appointment. The technician performing the ultrasound realized that the baby was already 26 weeks old, well past the point of viability. Despite the baby’s ability to feel pain and its growing development, the abortion was carried out. Issue 1, with its broad loophole, would continue to allow the killing of viable babies like Autumn’s.
Chloe May Never Have Kids After Doctors Put Her on Testosterone at 13
A girl named Chloe was put on puberty blockers and male hormones at the age of 13, leading to irreversible physical and mental health issues. She now faces the possibility of never being able to conceive or carry a child. Issue 1 would not only override parental consent requirements but also grant children like Chloe access to fertility-destroying transgender treatments.
Testosterone Caused Prisha’s Genitals to ’Atrophy’
A teenager named Prisha, struggling with depression and anorexia, was put on testosterone after discovering transgenderism online. Now, as an adult, she suffers from irreversible physical trauma, including vaginal atrophy and dryness. Issue 1 would protect and endorse such damaging treatments for minors.
Aborting a Baby for Being a Girl
Undercover investigations have revealed that abortionists are willing to perform abortions solely based on the sex of the baby. Issue 1’s vague language regarding the “health” of the mother could allow for sex-selective abortions to occur. Additionally, the amendment could be used to justify the abortion of babies with disabilities.
If Issue 1 is approved, these vulnerable babies and children will be at risk of suffering a similar fate, with their injuries and deaths not only left unprotected but actively endorsed by the state.
How does the language of “reproductive rights” in Issue 1 mask its true implications and expansion of abortion access?
Well-developed and likely near viability. Despite Autumn’s pleas for the abortion to be stopped, the abortionist proceeded with the procedure and forcefully removed the baby from her womb. This horrifying event showcases the potential consequences of Issue 1, which would allow for late-term abortions up until birth, disregarding the rights of the unborn child and the mother’s wishes.
These are just a few examples of the devastating outcomes that could occur if Ohio’s Issue 1 is passed. It is crucial for Ohio voters to recognize the true nature of this amendment and the dangerous implications it carries. The misleading language of “reproductive rights” masks the reality of what Issue 1 would entail — the expansion of abortion access at the expense of innocent lives.
Those who oppose Issue 1 do not seek to deny women’s rights or disregard their choices. On the contrary, they recognize the importance of protecting the rights of both women and unborn children. They understand the need for informed decision-making, especially when minors are involved, and the significance of parental consent in such matters. They acknowledge the potential harms of irreversible medical procedures and the ethical challenges they pose.
Ultimately, the decision lies in the hands of Ohio voters. Will they be swayed by the deceptive rhetoric surrounding Issue 1, or will they see through the smoke and mirrors and stand up for the sanctity of life? The implications of this amendment extend far beyond the realm of “reproductive rights.” They touch upon the very fabric of society and the values we hold dear.
Ohio has the opportunity to reject this radical change and protect the rights of the most vulnerable members of society. Let us hope that voters will make the choice that upholds the dignity and worth of every human life, and ensure that Ohio remains a state that cherishes the rights of all, born and unborn.
