On Thursday April 13, just about a year after signing a 15-Week Abortion ban Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed a six-week-abortion ban. The move further signifies Fla. as a pro-life state, and the online reaction from the left was about what you expect.
Just 15 minutes after receiving Florida's Heartbeat Bill to his desk, DeSantis signed it into law. This makes it illegal to kill any babies after six weeks gestation. It also includes a threat of jail time for doctors who break the law. This law does not change for women who became pregnant through incest or rape. While it isn’t an all out ban on the unnecessary slaughter of the unborn, it certainly is a step in the right direction.
DeSantis, naturally, was proud. “Signed the Heartbeat Protection Act, which expands pro-life protections and devotes resources to help young mothers and families,” he tweeted late Thursday evening.
On the other hand however, pro-abort activists went rage-monkey online.
One simply wrote “pig” on DeSantis’ announcement tweet, another called it a “painfully sad day for Florida” and one insisted, “Every person in this photo should be locked up, you fkng maniacs.” The left is just oh so tolerant.
A lady claimed the heartbeat of a child at six-weeks was a mere “electrical pulse.” I wonder what would have happened if her mother believed the same thing.
It’s not a heartbeat at 6 weeks, it’s an electrical pulse.

You know who does have a heartbeat? The person who wants or needs an abortion.
This next user was the same one who tweeted about a group of protestors chanting in a circle in opposition of the bill Thursday at the courthouse.
Let me make this clear: Ron DeSantis is the single-worst & most dangerous Governor for young people in America. And his singing of an abortion bill last night shows exactly why. Gen Z is watching & we are going to make sure he never gets re-elected into any position of power.

One group claimed that the pro-life law is a war on women … what about the young girls in the womb?
After abandoning his state during a historic flood to give a speech in Ohio, Ron DeSantis returned home and immediately signed into law a near-total abortion ban.

This is an assault on liberty, an attack on freedom, and a war on women. https://t.co/S8X7uBxSm1
Online the hashtag #DeSantisDestroysFlorida also began trending with other users bashing his pro-life views and even bringing in his supposed “anti-gay” views.
All I can say to pro-aborts who don’t like this new pro-life law in Florida is MOVE!
