    Stay Home, Save Lives —> Trans Rights Are Human Rights —> Abortion Rights … all spring from the same demented mindset.

    This needs to be the centerpiece for every ad campaign trying to fighting for reproductive rights:

    Yep. And they are currently in charge, implementing their agenda with zeal. Any bug most of us identify is in fact a feature

    I think people who argue hard cases to bolster the case for killing babies are disgusting.

    So you’re for banning assault weapons and for background checks. Good for you! I knew you would come around to our way of thinking eventually once you got off the MAGA juice.

    Although not nearly as disgusting as people who support the denial of medical care to women even if it results in their deaths.
    Death of a dentist in Ireland denied an abortion has worried doctors who say history may repeat in U.S.
    Polish state has ‘blood on its hands’ after death of woman refused an abortion
    And it's only a matter of time before similar incidents occur in the "red states" in the US thanks to the so called prolifers.

    I would also add that to most of us a zygote the size of the head of a pin or an early term fetus the size of a kidney bean and incapable of life outside of the womb is not a "baby".

    This is interesting:
    https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/04/27/florida-supreme-court-privacy-clause-muniz/
    At issue is a provision in the Florida Constitution intended to protect the right to privacy, added by voters decades ago and long interpreted as a safeguard against abortion restrictions in the third-most-populous state.

    But while the state’s high court has been transformed by DeSantis into a conservative stronghold, even the chief justice — whose nomination was cheered by antiabortion activists — has acknowledged that the privacy clause protects abortion.

    A paragraph in a little-noticed 2004 article by Carlos Muñiz, then a private attorney and now chief justice, is being cited by abortion rights advocates in the case before the high court that will ultimately decide the fate of abortion access in the state.

    “One purpose of the privacy amendment clearly was to give the abortion right a textual foundation in our state constitution,” Muñiz wrote in the article for the Journal of the James Madison Institute.
    ---------------------------------------------------
    Don't get me wrong, I don't believe for a second that he'll stick to his previous (principled) position. But it does show how absurd all this is and that when they rule the way they do, it won't be because they're acting like judges.

    Hospitals that denied emergency abortion broke the law, feds say

    WASHINGTON (AP) — Two hospitals that refused to provide an emergency abortion to a pregnant woman who was experiencing premature labor put her life in jeopardy and violated federal law, a first-of-its-kind investigation by the federal government has found.

    The findings, revealed in documents obtained by The Associated Press, are a warning to hospitals around the country as they struggle to reconcile dozens of new state laws that ban or severely restrict abortion with a federal mandate for doctors to provide abortions when a woman’s health is at risk. The competing edicts have been rolled out since the Supreme Court overturned the constitutional right to an abortion last year.

    But federal law, which requires doctors to treat patients in emergency situations, trumps those state laws, the nation’s top health official said in a statement.

    “Fortunately, this patient survived. But she never should have gone through the terrifying ordeal she experienced in the first place,” Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra said. “We want her, and every patient out there like her, to know that we will do everything we can to protect their lives and health, and to investigate and enforce the law to the fullest extent of our legal authority, in accordance with orders from the courts.”

    Forced Birth republicans are the dog that caught the car. Now we are living through the dystopian disaster that they have created with these laws.

    It’s about controlling women, not giving them agency over their lives

    The fact that someone rated this post with a “funny” rating is disgusting but not surprising.

    The other interesting thing about that lawsuit is that The husband is being represented by Jonathan Mitchell, almost certainly for free, a movement attorney that has appeared before a lot of the courts leading to this point. So you can’t characterize this lawsuit as an outlier, an aberration, one the movement itself would not approve. Representation, it is playing with this is a use of the statute that the movement fully endorses
