The GOP congresswoman told the House that women 'needed a Glock-19 when it happened.' She has been accused of blaming 'victims for their own assaults.'
"Women who have an abortion have an 81 percent increase in risk for mental health problems and are 35 percent more likely to commit suicide. Abortion doubles the risk of alcoholism for women, increases the risk of future miscarriages by up to 60 percent. Every abortion leaves one dead and one wounded."
