Last night, Iggy jumped on Twitter to share her frustrations and disgust with the system aiming to take away a woman’s right to choose.

Since 2013, various U.S. states have pushed for laws banning abortions based on a heartbeat detection.

North Dakota state lawmakers passed the first “heartbeat” bill in 2013 — a law that banned abortions after the detection of a fetal heartbeat, which can happen as early as six weeks, before a woman even knows she is pregnant Lower courts ruled it unconstitutional, based on the landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Roe v. Wade, and the high court refused to hear the appeal. Iowa passed a similar bill last year, and a state judge declared it unconstitutional, too. (Washington Post)

Since the start of 2019, multiple states have taken action to have anti-abortion bills placed into motion.

The Planned Parenthood Action Fund reports that in the first three months of 2019, there were 16 states where a six-week abortion ban has been either filed, moved or signed into law. The debate over such a ban in Georgia is ongoing, and the state’s legislature has approved of the bill but it is awaiting the governor’s signature. (ABC News)

      • It’s funny that women and men say it’s not fair yet you refuse to keep it in your pants or close your legs ladies yes freedom is great but if your willing to sacrifice someone else’s freedom for your own 

        • Removing rights in a free country isn’t fair , right or legal see how many bans have been struck down by Federal judges with a understanding of constitutional law & freedom. Refer back to the suggestion RE education. You are free to choose your way, don’t block mine. Simple explanation of “freedom”. Let me know if you need smaller words. 

          • Love that you had to go straight to name calling. More proof you need an education. And even better you did it in private. What your religious high horse might be tarnished with profanity? Need smaller words again, sweetie? 

          • Haha education I didnt say it to you I said it about the ppl that cant be a grown adult you played with fire when having sex it happens but you guilt towards how apparently we have something against woman is stupid smaller words I dont thing you can say any ‘big girl’ words that actually stand for your arguement 

    • Safe Sex..? Thats like saying KIDS FROM 13 YRS TO 18Yrs are the only ones having un protected sex or considering an ABORTION

      The Abortion law is for the Married couples/couples living together that loses a job and want to abort to save money..!! or just cant afford another kid and change their mind about the Pregnancy. 

      • Actually sweetheart it wasnt made for married couples it was made for black people back when black ppl were ‘actually’ being discriminated against due to the single fatherhood rate was going up single moms started having the option to abort due to there not being 2 parents in the household 

      • So what happens a year after the child is born and they lose a job or just can’t afford it? Oh that’s right that’s what hot cars are for  There is your right to choose.

    • Well because if humans were clever, safe sex would be practiced and there would be no need for the abortions. But not all can be that black and white right? 

  1. Doesnt matter if women dont like it people say it’s a womans body yet you know what happens when you have sex you know the risk yet you take it so technically you just keep putting your hands in the cookie jar eventually your gonna get caught lol

  2. First of all, what about the women who didn’t conceive their baby by being “reckless”, or “Irresponsible” ? What about rape victims or women who unfortunately trusted in failed contraceptives ? 

    • Well actually the problem with that is abortion percentages on rape victims is LESS than 1% look it up it’s a fact now the highest percentage is those that just dont want kids so really you can tell me with a straight face it’s for the ‘rape’ victims..no it’s for ppl that dont wanna be responsible 

      • And plus you said it yourself trusted failed contraceptives they took the risk having sex is mating in any primal or breathing life what is mating for..reproduction  they literally are playing with fire 

        • Does that sound intelligent in your head? 

          Seriously? It’s not it makes you sound like a pompous fool.  The US is the only industrialized nation that just can’t leave abortion alone. You forget that many companies won’t cover birth control for religious reasons. 

          Second why do I need to justify a decision or a action I take with my own body? Why is the US so afraid of female sexuality? 

          Lastly don’t come back to me with get a job or some religious explanation why I can’t make my own decisions. I will quote free will & I have a job. Thank you. If you don’t want rights than by all means don’t use them but don’t not think about removing mine. 

        • How people can still think like this these days?

          I mean, if everyone had babies when they have sex we would have a serious problem! 

          We kill animals to eat, bugs, plants, indirectly other people… A heartbeat is a muscle working… No more than that! 

          A person is much more than that! I agree we shouldn’t kill a person. But that hardly comes from the heartbeat, I comes from the brain and everything else with it… 

          It’s sad and its a serious matter. Abortion and killing a future person is no joke. But there are many unfortunate things happening in the world and this child being born could be one of them. It’s like a sacrifice.. You should mourn and be sad but still it might be the best option. No matter if is rape or just because it was an accident…. Raising a baby these days is not like it used to be…it’s way harder and child services will destroy you. The baby will end up and Foster care and possibly a future criminal. 

          • Seriously. You wouldnt even be here if your mama had not wanted you amd btw you started out as a heartbeat but i guess that didnt make you a life right. I guess your a life now becuase your older and all right? But without that heart beating in your chest that you say doesnt matter… You wouldnt be alive and breathing and would have no life. Thats kinda common sense there so for you to say that a life isnt a life just becuase its inside somebody is wrong

      • Most rape victims do not report therefore will say the abortion is for other purposes. Must not know anyone who has been in those situations before or you are too closed minded to add up the unreported statistics and put the data together to get a more accurate percentage. You seem like you have more than two brain cells. Do the math for real. 1% is not the real percentage. Trust that for sure. 

    •  no sex if you ain’t ready for the consequences that could come from having sex basic common sense adult 

  3. Ppl love to say abortions for the poor or for rape victims now let’s be honest rape victims percentage is UNDER 1% in abortion percentages ppl dont wanna be told that they cant do abortion close your legs leave it in your pant yes we all have free will but we also know EVERYONE will try to silent EVERYONE else so they can be heard if there isnt a compromise then this will never end this new law is literally a great thing it’s a HEARTBEAT …that means its alive it’s a human you have no right to kill him/her for your personal gain 

  4. How bout this one ladies and gents this government declares someone to be dead when there’s no heartbeat that’s the closure for accountability for death right? So AERYN MOSS shouldn’t a heartbeat be the accountability for life so then you have no right to kill him/her it has a heartbeat it’s a life that technically makes you a murderer to kill him/her

    • I could understand banning abortion at the other end of the pregnancy, for example after a certain number of months. However considering life as the first heartbeat is absurd, how can the state just assume this heartbeat will reach full term, having a child isn’t guaranteed.

    • I bet you kill indirectly several things that have a heartbeat. A person is not a person until it develops a brain and everything else.

      People die everyday and the world is overpopulated anyway. We have to understand it, and own it. Life changed and the world changed. We should adapt with it. Most abortions are, in a way, a blessing – probably one less looser around. Sorry to say, but natural selection cannot be so natural anymore right? Let everyone have lots of babies? Not a great solution either. Protection and all of that exist, yes, but sometimes circumstances cause people to make mistakes. Should 3 lives (father norther and child) be destroyed over 1? 

      At least all babies can die happy and go to heaven… 

      • Stop fornicating stop having sex without the full understandings of what can happen be prepared as yes it’s sinful you do such things be selective in what you do take on the full responsibility understand we have barriers but when a life is happening it’s by a greater power than any one can ever understand no barriers can stop life that’s why no matter what is said or done life can still happen powerful beautiful and a blessing .

        • Read a book, seriously.

          No one is talking here about fornication and please, leave religion on the side cause religion proved several times that they don’t think twice before taking a life for their own person gain. It is all a hypocrisy don’t you think? 

          Life is a blessing and all of that, we just are a bit more evolved these days to understand what life actually is and what sex is and what is for. 

          Unfourtunetelly today not everyone has the same religious beliefs. A belief cannot control what people do or not cause if it did, we would be all killing different people for diferent purposes. Our life’s are not more valuable than a tree. In fact, the life of many people is way less valuable than a tree. Yet, I believe you have or use loads of things that required to kill a tree. And you sleep just fine at night! 

          We are not the only God creations you know? The life of any living thing is important. But we also have to control it. When something goes wrong, we know that we have an option! 

  5. A women and men have a choice, it’s called open your legs and have sex or don’t.. it starts there and yes I agree once a heart beat is present, it’s a life. Stop using it as a birth control and carry the child , give birth and if you don’t want it give it up to the state.. there are afew exception (s), but it’s murder in any other way… 

    • What about if both parties are not willing participants? How about in cases of uncle touchy knocking up the early bloomer at say 10 or 11 years old. Both situations people dont think of while outside a planned parenthood making every woman walking in or out of the doors feel like they should just go jump in front of a bus. You dont know until you have walked half a mile in the shoes. I was anti abortion. Then I was given some first hand experience and insight. I should not have judged nor should any law maker or fellow citizens..

  6. It’s murderer, yes. But sometimes, that is what you gotta do.my mother had an abortion because she got pregnant while fighting cancer. Say what you want, but she is married and I have 4 sisters. Probably the pragnancy wouldn’t go well anyway and potentially they would both die. My mother is religious and it was hard for her to take this decision. I think it was the best decision she ever made. 

    • Okay see that different this is a semi healthy woman… That mess with every dude… I’m sorry about your mom getting cancer by the way… I believe the only reason for an abortion is if its medical.. 

  7. 100% of every patient in a hospital that had the plug pulled had a beating heart.  Why should the unborn have more rights than a senior citizen in a coma?

  8. I completely agree once there’s a heartbeat the baby is alive even though there is always a heartbeat it’s just not able to get detected till like week 8. But in some ccircumstancesI believe any woman should have a choice yes it’s murder but if a woman was raped or had a inbread child concieved unwilling they should be able to get a abortion if that’s what they choose I myself do not believe in it no matter the circumstances but that’s my belief and it should not be pushed on to someone else just bcuz I don’t think it’s right

  9. Shes in disgust cause every time she gets pregmant by one of them dudes she goes and visits one of them clinics* facts
