I had to draw my own.



It's not that I've looked at every single cartoon about the "legitimate rape" thing.  Maybe somebody else has done it, and undoubtedly better. 

And having to choose between denial of science, and hideous lack of compassion is absurd, but still, the realistic scientific view that violent assault does not trigger some kind of mythical bodily defense against pregnancy, makes the absolutists' to-hell-with-you treatment of women who've been impregnated by assault much much nastier.  To me.  I wish I could draw.

They say good writing can overcome bad art better than good art can overcome bad writing.

Not to suggest that the observation is relevant, but I don't think you've got anything to apologize for: This is a good cartoon.

Thanks, yall.

The ONLY thing I miss about my PC is my beloved Photoimpact program. It let me edit some of those glitches out of my drawings. Here you get more of the raw product I tend to produce, complete with patches.
