Sometimes, you must wonder, "What was she thinking, to say a thing like that?" That was certainly the case for Sarah Huckabee Sanders, when she tried to run the Republican talking points about restricting women's reproductive health care choices. It was shortly after the horrific Uvalde, Texas school shooting when she said that safety in the womb will be made equivalent to safety in schools and elsewhere. Other places are also unsafe, because there are too many damn personal firearms in the hands of people capable of mass murder. Schools, parades, places of worship, supermarkets, night clubs, and music shows have all been locations of mass shootings. Sanders must know that.
"We will make sure that when a kid is in the womb, they're as safe as they are in a classroom / a workplace / a nursing home."
--Sarah Huckabee Sanders, June 26, 2022
