Stacey Abrams: Fetal Heartbeat a ‘Manufactured Sound’ to Outlaw Abortion

Paul Bois 22 Sep 2022

Georgia Democrat gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams aired her abortion extremism this week when she suggested fetal heartbeats are a “manufactured sound” designed to control a woman’s body.

“There is no such thing as a heartbeat at six weeks,” she said before a panel. “It is a manufactured sound designed to convince people men have a right to take control of a woman’s body.”

Abrams was undoubtedly taking aim at the 2019 Georgia law that banned most abortions in the state after doctors can detect a fetal heartbeat, which usually happens around six weeks.

Since most women do not learn of their pregnancy in the first six weeks, the law effectively bans all abortion in the Peach State. Though the law faced numerous hurdles, it finally went into effect this year after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.

Hard to come up with words for this Howard Dean moment of bare faced tinfoil conspiracy theory.

All this from the supposed party of science. If it didn't have a heartbeat, it wouldn't be alive and there would be nothing to abort.

[libertybele]

If she truly believes this then she is just plain stupid. If she knows she's spewing a lie the she's just plain evil.

So asserts one of the notables of the Party of Science™.

Stacey Abrams is larger than every other panelist combined. She's like the Voltron of politicians.

Oops, this is a gaffe that she won't recover from.

Not even the most rabid pro-choice activist say crap like this!!!

The only heart rate that Stacy Abrams should be concerned about is hers after hitting the buffet at Golden Corral.

Planned Parenthood changes website after Stacey Abrams's heartbeat comments
By Jack Birle, Breaking News Reporter

Planned Parenthood has quietly changed its website to match comments Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams made Thursday about fetal heartbeats.

Abrams said Thursday that "there is no such thing as a heartbeat at six weeks," adding, "It is a manufactured sound designed to convince people that men have the right to take control of a woman's body."


Planned Parenthood changed its website without any acknowledgment of modifications to say that under the five- to six-week mark of pregnancy, "a part of the embryo starts to show cardiac activity. It sounds like a heartbeat on an ultrasound, but it's not a fully-formed heart — it's the earliest stage of the heart developing." The same webpage previously said that "a very basic beating heart and circulatory system develop," per an archive of the page from July.

The National Library of Medicine, under the National Institutes of Health, says that at week five of pregnancy, "your baby's brain, spinal cord, and heart begin to develop," and at weeks six to seven, the "baby's heart continues to grow and now beats at a regular rhythm."

Abrams made the remark on fetal heartbeats while discussing Georgia's "heartbeat law," which bans most abortions once cardiac activity is detected, which occurs around six weeks.

Abrams is attempting to unseat Republican Gov. Brian Kemp in a rematch of the 2018 gubernatorial race. Real Clear Politics has rated the race as "leans Republican."

Just add it to the litany of nonscience (pronounced very much like nonsense) purveyed by the Left.

The mask will stop the virus...
You don't acquire natural immunity if you survive the virus...
You can change your sex at will...(remember when such mutilation was called a "sex change" operation, not "gender reassignment"?)
You can spend your way out of inflation by creating new money out of thin air...
and a host of others...

Whenever the party of science runs into some science they don't like, they just get their lackeys at Planned Parenthood (or the CDC, FDA, NIH, WHO) to instruct us that everything we've known for generations to be fact needs some tweaking.

Hi, OBGYN here, unlike Stacey Abrams. This is factually incorrect. There’s no man behind the curtain. Babies have a real heartbeat at six weeks. Why do radical Dems hate unborn babies?

The better question is why Dems hate children of all ages? Those they let survive birth, they're willing to indoctrinate, alienate from their parents, expose to porn, pump full of experimental drugs and, when they're old enough, ship off to fight other nation's wars.

Speaking of Golden Corral ... I wonder if Stacey is one of those people who come for lunch, sit around and holler at friends/family all afternoon, and then stuff themselves for dinner.  They are only billed for one meal, of course.

Yes, absent constant pro-life ideological pressure, nurses all over the USA would be asking, with unsentimental brusqueness, "do you want to hear an amplified rhythm that matches the pulse of the fetal pole cardiac activity in your product of conception?"

Except PP , Abrams and the other adherents to the religion of infanticide probably think of babies as symbiotic parasites and not a 'product of conception'.

This is the final nail in Stacy's casket.  Even abortion-supporting women here recognize this as BS.  Kemp will beat her by a wider margin than in 2018.

[DefiantMassRINO]

Fetal heartbeats are real.  Stacey Abrams chances of being Georgia Governor are not.
