Sorry to interrupt the outrage over movies, a pizza place and whatever faux crisis both sides have for this Friday. So in 31 states if the victim keeps the baby after being raped, the rapists actually get parental rights. Now there is an outrage.

Sounds like more rights than some of my divorced, male co-workers have.

They actually have parental rights in every state


Troxel v. Granville
530 U.S. 57 (2000)

JUSTICE O’CONNOR, joined by THE CHIEF JUSTICE, JUSTICE GINSBURG, and JUSTICE BREYER, concluded that § 26.10.160(3), as applied to Granville and her family, violates her due process right to make decisions concerning the care, custody, and control of her daughters. Pp.63-75.

(a) The Fourteenth Amendment’s Due Process Clause has a substantive component that “provides heightened protection against government interference with certain fundamental rights and liberty interests,” Washington v. Glucksberg, 521 U. S. 702, 720, including parents’ fundamental right to make decisions concerning the care, custody, and control of their children, see, e. g., Stanley v. Illinois, 405 U. S. 645, 651. Pp.63-66.

At least the rape victim is not forced to marry the rapist.

Do parental rights in this use inherently mean having custody of the child, or is it more of a legal distinction which allows the state or rape victim to go after the rapist for child-support?

that pretty much defines why you better make a shiteload of money for security purposes....

once money becomes irrelevant, one will realize the meaning of 'revert'

just another wtfe story.....

That is probably a Muslim thing.
