You can't go after stupid with logic.

You gotta go after it with equally, if not more outrageous levels of stupid.

If am embryo is a kid, go for child support from the date of conception.

Sue for life insurance rights/benefits.

Get voting rights lowered by a year since the time in the tummy counts as life.

Just do the most outrageous things you can possibly think of and get legal precedent set based on the new state of stupidity.

You can only fight stupid with stupid.

Go do your best stupid.

@chu Insist that all very early miscarriages require a full funeral for the embryo. Also, in states where oak trees are protected prosecute people who tread on acorns since, by their logic, acorns are trees.

@mikewaghorne @chu Nooo. That will fall entirely on the grieving families, and won't touch anyone in power.

@wiredfool Do you think that states that pass these laws care about grieving families or protect those without power?

@mikewaghorne This isn't going after it with more levels of stupid, this is additional weaponizing the existing stupid. This is a logical, direct progression from the prosecutions for abortion from a miscarriage.

@wiredfool Perhaps you failed to see that I was being cynical, not serious
