Lawmaker Says Women Should Plan Ahead for Rape


Kansas state Rep. Pete DeGraaf (R) is getting heat for comments he made about a bill prohibiting general health insurance plans from covering abortions, including for victims of rape and incest, the Witchita Eagle reports.

He suggested that women "plan ahead" by buying a separate policy that covers abortion.

When asked how women are supposed to plan ahead for issues over which they have no control, DeGraaf responded, "I have a spare tire on my car... I also have life insurance. I have a lot of things that I plan ahead for."

1. just think of the intelligence level of the people who voted for him...

2. Can we start thinking of these people as stupid

It makes me wonder what their IQ is. There has to be a comprehension void in their thinking capacity, and not just in their emoting. The idiocy some of these people come up with when it comes to abortions is seriously worrying.

3. I have. I keep a box of Plan B on hand at all times.

Guess he wouldn't approve of that, though.

7. So tell us, Mr. DeGraaf

What are your plans should you be raped?
