So Texas did what they were always planning to do and made abortions even if the mother's life is at risk illegal.
A woman who's name is Kate Cox tried to fight against the supreme court because the fetus isn't viable and she will die if she doesn't get an abortion, and they told her "too bad."
"average American female has 3 abortions per year" factoid just statistical error. average american female has 0 abortions per year. Abortions Georgiana, who lives in a cave & has 1,000,000 a day, is an outlier adn should have not been counted.
I've never seen a more clear explanation of anti-choice politics. It also made me think about for-profit vs socialism. People who are anti-choice do not support vital services unless they can make it for-profit, or make funding cuts to render it non-usable.
"Republicans can be very pious if the burden of their piety is borne by others."
I also want to point out how pregnant people are still being told to work over getting medical help.
In the US...abortion might be punishable by death in south calorina.... wheres the freedom huh?
Whether it passes or not, this was always where the anti-choice movement was headed in the US. It’s never been about protecting foetuses or preserving life, the aim is to control and punish women.
(Note: As has been pointed out, the abortion ban was previously overturned making it unlikely that legislation like this would stand.)
if youre pro-life you deserve to have your skin slowly peeled off your body with very small fruit peelers over the course of a month, then to have your limbs be cooked differently with deep fryers, stoves, ovens, etc while theyre still attached to you, and your blood is used to keep the meat moistened like liquid for a thanksgiving turkey, then have your brain and heart be put on life support while youre forced to watch the various children, the poor or orphaned children that were forced to be born because of you, eat your body with happiness as they get a full meal from your organs and muscles. bonus points if your family is then locked behind a glass case with no way to get out and theyre starving and suffering as they are also forced to watch you be eaten alive

Bill Hicks - Rant in E-Minor (recorded November 1992 - December 1993)
"Boy, I've never seen an issue so divisive. You ever see it, it's like a civil war, isn't it? Even amongst my friends, who are all very intelligent! They are totally divided on abortion! It's unbelievable! Some of my friends, for instance, think these pro-life people are annoying idiots. Other of my friends think these pro-life people are evil fucks. How are we going to come to a consensus? You ought to hear the arguments around my house; "they're annoying, they're idiots, they're evil, they're fucks!" Brothers, sisters, come together! Can't we once just join hands and think of them as evil annoying idiot fucks?
I beseech you, but that's me, Libra Rising, the scales! And, strangely enough, Shiva, The Destroyer (laughs). Who would have thunk it?
"We're pro-life." "Ooh, you look it! You look like you're filled with life." All the little kids: "Please don't adopt me, please don't adopt me, please don't adopt me!" "We're your new Christian pro-life parents!" "Oh, where's the tower, where's the gun? Where's the tower, where's the gun? I was adopted by pro-life Christians when I was a kid (gun noises). Does my penis make me a bad boy? That's what they told me (gun noises)!"
Please, give me the Satan-worshipping family down the block. The ones who have the good albums. Suddenly I'm adopted by the Flanders, you know? "Hi Bill, isn't it another beautiful God-created morning?" (weird noise).
"We're pro-life." It's like, well what does that make me? You know what I mean? You're so pro-life! You're so pro-life, do me a fucking favor. Don't block med clinics, okay? Lock arms, and block cemeteries. Let's see how fucking committed you are to this premise. "She can't come in." "She's ninety-six, she was hit by a bus!" "There's options!" "What, do we got to have her stuffed? What are you talking about, she's dead!" "We're pro-life, get her out of that casket! Get her out! She's not going, we're pro-life people. There'll be no death on this planet."
Pro-life... and I always say, see, my theory, here's my actual theory beyond, uh, the huge, hilarious jokes I have. Here's my real theory, though: if you're so pro-life and you're so pro-child, then adopt one that's already here that's very unwanted and very alone and needs someone to take care of it to get it out of a horrible situation, okay? People say, "well why don't you do that?" And I say because I hate fucking kids and couldn't care less. Couldn't give a fuck. Don't care at all about abortion. It's your choice. Case closed, the end, bottom line; and by the way, a three-month old kid in your belly is not a fucking human being, okay? It's a bunch of little congregate of cells. You're not a human until you're in my phonebook (laughs).
