Recently, the abortion favoring media attempted to taint Texas pro-life laws by maligning them with violent crimes committed towards women. The medical organization JAMA Internal Medicine released a poorly synthesized research article that claimed rape-related pregnancies increased dramatically within the first 16 months after Roe v. Wade was overturned resulting in 64,665 pregnancies resulting from rape.
Many questions had to be asked when this claim was reported. “How did the researchers come up with this number?” “Why did the researchers only focus on crime statistics in states with pro-life laws?” “Shouldn’t the focus be on stopping violent crimes against women if these numbers are true?” The math is not math-ing!
Time revealed that the JAMA research was improperly calculated and manipulating statistics for a political argument.
