New N.C. lieutenant governor tells pregnant women: 'It's not your body anymore'

North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson gave a speech on Friday at his state party convention that many would consider wildly offensive. Included in his comments were statements that imply women lose the right to control their bodies once they get pregnant, that transgender people are not worthy of respect, and that Black Americans don't deserve reparations but rather owe a debt to their enslaved ancestors.

Local station WRAL reported on Robinson's remarks, saying the crowd of Republican voters ate up his remarks, which included nearly every right-wing culture war issue.

He spoke about his opposition to abortion, even for victims of rape or incest, appearing to allude to Charles Darwin's theory of natural selection, saying he felt no sympathy for those who sought abortion.

Aside from his abortion comments, Robinson also said of pregnant women that, "It's not your body anymore, it's y'all's body."

"And, yes, that includes the daddy," he added. "She's not your baby mama anymore. She ought to be your wife."

He also spoke of his support of GOP bills seeking to ban transgender athletes from competing in women's sports, saying: "I want to be that person at the track meet that stands up and says … 'Them two fellas that won this track meet, they're not girls. Why are they out there?' That's two boys. I don't care what you call them. They're painted-up, striped-up jackasses. They're not women."

He also rejected the premise that systemic racism exists in the United States, and said that Black people are not owed reparations for slavery, but rather owe their enslaved ancestors.

"Nobody owes you anything for slavery," Robinson said. "If you want to tell the truth about it, it is you who owes. Why do you owe? Because somebody in those fields took strikes for you! … Somebody had to walk through Jim Crow for you! Somebody fought wars and died for you!"

And he fear-mongered about antifa, claiming that the loose movement of anti-fascists "wants to roam the streets and beat you into submission."
