I just gotta say i'm so frustrated wit the texas SC sitting on this decision, with NO CARE for woman

[bluestarone]

I just wish woman (and MEN)across this country would flood texas and shut the fucking state down until this fucking court does something. WAY PAST TIME for this to happen in every state that supports This FN AG of texas.

1. Sure what do they care they are not the ones carrying the dead fetus

Maybe if one of them had a wife or daughter in that situation although I’m not even sure that would help

[LeftInTX]

3. One of them did in the past, so there's that...

However, there is a difference between dead and not compatible with life.

The fetus, when born is not expected to survive.
It could die in utero.

But as of last week, it was not dead.

[flashman13]

11. If they did have a wife or daughter, I guarantee they would get an abortion.

[LeftInTX]

14. One of them had something similar to this case. No abortion.

Devine and his wife continued a high-risk pregnancy for their seventh child even though the pregnancy was likely to cause the death of both the mother and the child, according to Devine. His wife survived the pregnancy but the child died an hour after birth.[1]

19. They are sick sick people and to them

a woman’s life is completely worthless.

[Freddie]

27. Wonder how his wife felt about that

Her very existence was used to prove a point.
Many years ago I had a coworker who was diagnosed with breast cancer early in a pregnancy. Being a devout Catholic she refused to consider abortion so she could be treated for the cancer. Her baby lived. She didn’t. “Pro-life” assholes think what she did was Brave and Noble, to sacrifice her life for the fetus. Beyond sick.

47. Yet these same people think George Zimmerman had a right to kill, all have right to carry nt

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

44. What they don't seem to understand is that they made that choice.

It was not imposed upon them by outsiders. Personally, I would have terminated that pregnancy, but I've never been faced with that decision.

As I like to say: If you think abortion is wrong, don't have one. But don't try to make such decisions for anyone else.

[LeftInTX]

46. I was replying to a post that stated:

. If they did have a wife or daughter, I guarantee they would get an abortion.

I don't agree with their decision at all and don't agree they should impose their will on others. However, assuming that if any of the Texas Supreme Court were in the same shoes and would get an abortion is not accurate.

2. Women are not human to MAGA men. They're just livestock.

And forcing a woman (even married with a wanted child) to carry a dead or dying or unviable fetus is also a way to punish her.

To MAGA men and the American Taliban, women are either madonnas or sluts. Mothers or whores. Never a human being deserving of human rights. Mostly they consider them whores and want them punished for it - that is based in their religion - that biblical fantasy where Eve tempted Adam. In that view, all women are evil sluts. In no capacity are women or girls considered humans deserving of reproductive healthcare. They're just property, like livestock; male service units; incubators, second-class humans -- at very best.

This is their attitude. This is how it can be explained. It's the ONLY way it can be explained. Patriarchal evangelism that dehumanizes female human beings as evil temptresses where being a mother is the only redeeming value they have.

[bluestarone]

4. 76 years old here. I NEVER EVER thought i'd see our country under attack from within like this.

If we don't organize something in every state, letting the SC know we won't allow them to destroy our laws and beliefs, then we will be in trouble. The election of 2024 has to be won, or else.

[CousinIT]

17. Agree 1000%

I'm not retired yet and don't have the time or money to do what I would like. When retired, I'll have more time but it will be too late by then and I'll have even less money. I'm probably not the only one in this situation. I feel like we're so f*cked.

[redqueen]

20. The time for that was after Bush v Gore

They know they can do whatever they want. They don't care about the consequences.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

34. All we have is now

More eyes have been opened since 2000.

[TSExile]

10. They are heartless, full stop.

The American Taliban: Texas.

Sickening.

[MOMFUDSKI]

5. I wish she had gone to California when the

invite came. Women have to buck these stupid laws and make a big show of it. Teach the young women how to fight these religious lunatics.

[bluestarone]

6. I do somewhat agree, BUT maybe her reasoning could be

A decision has to be made from the SC on this? I thought i heard if she does get this abortion, then case will be dropped. not sure which way is best, but this AG needs to be STOPPED period!

[Lonestarblue]

9. Yes, I think that's the reason Paxton took this to the Texas SC.

They want to force her to go to another state for an abortion and she cannot wait much longer. Once she has the abortion, the case becomes moot but no precedent has been set for future use by other women. The point is still to put fear of prosecution into the minds of all physicians yo make them refuse an abortion even to save a woman’s life.

[90-percent]

16. Doesnt texas law

Make it a crime to go to another state to get an abortion?

-90% jimmy

[Lonestarblue]

29. Some local communities have tried tp pass laws saying that anyone using their roads to drive a

woman to another state for an abortion can be prosecuted. The practical application of such laws would be impossible because every car with a female in it would have to be stopped, and the police would not know whether a woman was pregnant.

[Skittles]

39. don't give them any ideas

there is no fascist low repukes will not sink to

[former9thward]

30. No.

It is not a crime for a person getting an abortion.

15. .

Teach the young women how to fight these religious lunatics.

She is fighting it, in the courts.

7. the symbiotic relationship of the good old boys network of rebukes

and the texas supremes is so close there is no day light between the two.

Crooked you say? hell yes, I say.

forgot it, Jake, it's texas.

[Ray Bruns]

8. The whole point of the stay is to delay the medical procedure until it's too late

And force Kate Cox to carry the fetus to term.

[wryter2000]

13. Or leave the state

One part of me wishes she were on a plane to CA now. The other half wants her to continue to fight.

[Freddie]

28. And if she leaves the state

The case has no standing, and Paxton wins. That’s precisely what he wants. He doesn’t give a flying f** about the fetus, he just doesn’t want a precedent set.

[Skittles]

40. repukes don't like that women can leave a fascist state

nope

[wryter2000]

48. She did leave the state

Her attorney says they're going to keep the case open. I don't know how. But if she comes back, will they arrest her?

[wryter2000]

12. Pregnancy has deadlines

They can't just sit on it without causing future damage.

[SunSeeker]

18. Yup. Healthcare delayed is healthcare denied. nt

[Hekate]

42. They can and they will --sit on the case, that is

[wryter2000]

49. I'm sure that was the plan

[onecaliberal]

21. He's a fucking criminal, why is he holding this office and lording over anyone. This is how you know recons don't give

a shit about the actual law. They are the ones breaking the laws.

[Old Crank]

22. A fetus in Texas

Is a defacto ward of the state. All costs for prenatal care need to be born by the state. From pregnancy to birth.

[malaise]

23. THIS

Rec

[KT2000]

24. Get her on a plane

to Washington where she will get compassionate care -immediately.

[MuseRider]

31. Faster to come to Kansas

we will take good care of her here. Wichita is but a few hours drive, 5 1/2 hours.

[Warpy]

25. They'll drag their heels until she gives birth

either to a stillborn fetus or to a baby that lives in agony for only a few hours.

While it's nice that she sued and exposed the extreme sadism of the GOP, it's time for her to come to NM for some health care.

[Vinca]

26. Apparently the word "emergency" is unknown to them.

[ExWhoDoesntCare]

32. And how do you propose to

Shut things down? By what means?

When you call for action, you need a clear plan that has a reasonable chance of working. You can't just go in there all fired up with no idea of what to do. That's a recipe for mob violence.

So spell out what these people need to do when they get to Texas that will actually, you know, work?

[bluestarone]

33. I guess just like Martin Luther King jr did?

Legally!

[MorbidButterflyTat]

38. Some of us are fired up

Some of us are hurting, in innumerable ways.

Some of us need to let off some steam, as impractical as it may seem to others, before the injustice and the cruelty eats us alive.

35. K&R

American Taliban

36. K&R

[MorbidButterflyTat]

37. I am right there with you

This BS is triggering, like Beer Bong Kavanaugh and his phony crocodile tears not only getting away with sexual assault but being rewarded with a lifetime appointment on the SC. It's been killing me, how this shit is happening.

There are phony services, used to be in the yellow pages, probably all over the internet, that claim to help pregnant women, usually desperate women, that are really anti-women religious nutbags, who can't mind their own business.

It's not any woman's responsibility to bring her personal health situation up for "precedent." Government does NOT belong in women's healthcare! The precedent is basic human rights without government interference.

And they have made it clear that precedent means nothing to them since they've stolen the majority, by way of a moronic criminal traitor to the US.

What world is this?!

[Hekate]

41. You have to understand that that was their intent all along. As in No means No, you worthless female.

[pansypoo53219]

43. vote. vote for progress. not the talibornagain.

[Ilsa]

45. Texas Supremes announced their ruling:

She would be forced to carry to term. Imglad she's out of there. I hope they permanently move, get their assets out of the state.
