Sharia Law: Coming soon to a country near you

Imagine a country where:

* Rape is not defined as a crime and impossible to prove
* Pregnancy is evidence that a rape did not occur
* Antiquated and unscientific religious dogma dictates modern law
* A stillbirth is the same as murder

Wait, I'm sorry. Did I say Sharia? I meant Republican law.

But if you want a preview of what it will be like here if Republicans get their way, take a look at this. Twenty minutes long but free, and a frightening and scary look at what happens when misogyny is encoded into law. Don't let this happen here.
