Nicaraguan President Signs Abortion Ban
banning ALL abortions in ALL types of cases. I must admit something. I don’t know squat about this Enrique Bolanos guy but I can tell you that I’m seriously starting to “love” him for sure.
MANAGUA, Nicaragua – President Enrique Bolanos signed a bill Friday banning abortion in all cases — including when a woman’s life is endangered — despite opposition from doctors, women’s rights groups and diplomats.
Previously, Nicaragua allowed abortions if three doctors certified that the woman’s health was at risk. The law signed Friday eliminates that century-old exception.
The six-year prison term for performing illegal abortions remains unchanged under the new law. There had been doubt about whether Bolanos would sign the law because he had sought stiffer sentences of up to 30 years for women who had abortions and for those who aided them.
…Cuba permits abortions within the first 12 weeks of pregnancy and Colombia recently authorized them in the case of a severely malformed fetus, if rape or incest were involved or if the woman’s life was in danger.
Retard!

People talk about religious lunacy in the Middle East, but they don’t know about the religious lunacy in Latin America.
