Alabama Bill Aims To Punish False Accusations Of Rape. Media Cries Foul.

In the age of #MeToo, we’re supposed to believe all women when they make accusations of a sexual nature, but as I have shown timeand time and time again, that is simply not true. Even when an accusation is proven to be false, via text or video evidence, the false accuser faces little to no consequences. Certainly far fewer consequences than the person falsely accused faces.

Alabama State Rep. E. Richard “Dickie” Drake (R-Leeds) is trying to change that. Earlier this month, Drake introduced AL HB544, a bill that would punish false accusations of sexual crime. As it stands, false accusers are only charged with filing a false police report, a misdemeanor. Drake’s bill would make it a Class C felony to “willfully, knowingly, and with malicious intent,” make “a false report of rape in the first degree, sodomy in the first degree, or sexual torture.” The allegations would need to be proven false in order for the accuser to be punished.

The bill also makes it a Class A misdemeanor to “willfully, knowingly, and with malicious intent” make a “false report of rape in the second degree, sodomy in the second degree, sexual misconduct, sexual abuse in the first degree, sexual abuse in the second degree, indecent exposure, enticing child to enter vehicle, house etc., for immoral purposes, sexual abuse of a child under 12, or foster parent engaging in a sex act, etc., with a foster child.” Again, the allegations would need to be proven untrue.

Not only will they punish you if you falsely accuse someone of raping you, but if you are actually raped they will force you to have the child.

How Should A Woman View Her Body and the Preborn Life Growing in Her Womb?

"Behold, children are a gift of the LORD; the fruit of the womb is a reward" (Psalm 127:3, NASV).

"Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own? For you have been bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body" (1 Corinthians 6:19-20, NKJV).

WHEN does LIFE start.

4:29 the article has to do with the false accusation not someone who has been raped. A false statement about rape will ruin a person, emotionally, financially and their reputation is forever tarnished just from being accused of something they have not done. These cases are for one to prove a negative, something that is very difficult to do. Is it fair to jail someone for life from a false accusation?

All women lie about everything. Jail and a fine and public humiliation should help them remember what happened!!!
