Republican Kentucky state Representative Danny Bentley apologized Tuesday and sayid he “meant absolutely no harm” by falsely claiming earlier in the day that abortion drug Mifepristone originated as Zyklon B, the deadly gas used to slaughter millions of Jews in the Holocaust, and that “the person who developed it was a Jew,” during a debate session, the Louisville Courier Journal reports.
Well that and the bizarre rant about Jewish women’s sex lives that came shortly before it. A Democrat in the chamber had proposed an amendment to an omnibus anti-abortion bill allowing a religious exemption for Jews when Bentley – a licensed pharmacist should know the fucking difference between Mifepristone and Zyklon B – responded with “since we brought up the Hebrew family today… Did you know that a Jewish woman has less cancer of the cervix than any other race in this country or this world? Because the Jewish women only have one sex partner… They don’t have multiple sex partners. To say that the Jewish people approve of this drug now is wrong.”
