Legislate Against Pregnancy?

Bread and Roses have launched this fictitious campaign to legislate against pregnancy in response to the anti-choice crowd that wants to legislate against abortion. Great idea! I think it's hilarious, but some disagree. You know, the 'social conservative' type. Yuck!

The Bread and Roses campaign notes...

Many aren't informed about the dangers of pregnancy and suffer physical and psychological damage. The risks of post partum depression is high.

Many go into it at an extremely young age and have thoughtless adults assuring them that they are making the right choice.

Many have pregnancy thrust upon them. Rates of death also known as maternal morbidity are between 4&5 per 100,000 births. While this may seem low these deaths could have been avoided if we had laws against pregnancy.

Many women regret their decision to continue their pregnancy for the rest of their lives. Causing them guilt and depression.

Some babies are born so young they require intensive medical treatments women considering pregnancy should be shown all the horrific things that can happen to them and their babies should they continue in their selfish quest to have children.

Best of luck with said campaign.... :)
