Amen. And I prosecuted many a rape. And many a victim got pregnant. What Akin said is, in addition to just being stupid, factually wrong.

The other thing is Akin probably set the pro-Life movement back by about 30 years. Pro-Lifers should the people MOST upset at him, not the ones defending him.

Ok. Let's assume that being raped automatically results in pregnancy. That would be a surprise to the few, intrepid medical researchers in the field (ethical experiments in the field being hard to devise).

But, nevertheless, let us assume. What then? What effect, Herr Prosecutor, does the greater frequency of pregnant rape victims have on the answer to the question as to whether their offspring should be executed?
