Colorado organizers who sought to put an anti-abortion initiative on the ballot this November failed to gather enough signatures in time to qualify.
The proposed measure from the Colorado Life Initiative sought to declare "a living human child must not be intentionally dismembered, mutilated, poisoned, scalded, starved, stabbed, given toxic injections known to cause death, left to die of the elements for lack of warmth or nutrition, used for experimentation, or treated in any way inhumanely to cause intentional physical harm leading to intended death or intended to cause disability to otherwise healthy and functioning parts of the body of a child."
For the purposes of the group's initiative, a "living human child" exists "from the moment human life biologically begins at conception," according to its website. The group needed to collect 124,238 signatures by the April 18 deadline. Faye Barnhart, co-sponsor of the measure, told CBS News that the group had collected "tens of thousands of signatures," but fell short.
In a press release, the Colorado Life Initiative blamed abortion opponents they deemed "ProLife In Name Only" — even calling them "PLINOs" — as well as insufficient publicity and recruitment for its failure to obtain enough valid signatures.

Jesus in Topeka? LOL Sadly there is too much Jesus in Topeka but you can get an abortion there and not have to worry about it.
I ask because I was born and raised there but live a bit outside of the city limits in the boonies and had never heard anything like that before. 
Pregnancy tissue at six weeks.
I loathe these people.
Got it.
