Default How stupid do you...

....have to be to believe that the rape kits hospitals use to determine
if a woman has been sexually attacked end a pregnancy?

About as stupid as this Texas female legislator...

Jodie Laubenberg says Texas rape kit is like dilation and curettage
procedure


The lead House sponsor of legislation pitched by advocates as improving
the safety of abortion clinics and restricting certain late-term
abortions described kits used after sexual assaults as akin to a
procedure that scrapes out tissue lining the uterus.

In floor debate that would extend hours past midnight June 23, 2013,
Rep. Jodie Laubenberg, R-Parker, mentioned "rape kits" after Rep.
Senfronia Thompson, D-Houston, presented an amendment to Senate Bill 5
to exempt victims of rape and incest from limits on abortions after the
20th week of pregnancy. A day later, the GOP-majority House advanced the
measure to the Senate for possible action before a 30-day special
session was to end June 25.

Laubenberg, responding to questions from Democratic Reps. Joseph Moody
of El Paso and Dawnna Dukes of Austin, framed her refusal to accept
Thompson’s amendment by implying that rape kits used in hospitals can
prevent unwanted pregnancy. Laubenberg said that currently, in "the
emergency rooms they have what’s called rape kits, that the woman can
get cleaned out, basically like a D and C" -- dilation and curettage
surgery, often performed after miscarriages.

The reality is a sexual assault evidence collection kit includes legal
and medical forms, oral swabs, hair combs and containers for clothes,
hair, fingernails, blood and saliva.
