Texas abortion ban nearly killed a patient

Under the Texas abortion law, any doctor or hospital that performs an abortion for any reason can be sued for $10,000 by anyone. There is no exception for rape, incest or life of the mother. A patient had a serious condition that endangered her life and could not get an abortion in Texas. This patient had to be flown out of state to save her life

But I truly believe that for every woman that dies because of these fucking stupid laws these "FAT OLD WHITE MEN IN THE TEXAS LEGISLATURE " should die by firing squads at the rate of 5 to

I remember when George HW Bush was asked about what if his granddaughter got pregnant. He said something like he would counsel her and give her alternatives and everything “but in the end it would be her decision”. Goddamn man that’s all we’re trying to say

That we won’t hear about have already happened and will continue to happen. It’s barbaric and unacceptable.

I realize it's not easy for many, but for some, your very life depends upon it.

The political leaders in those states do not care whether you live or die. And yet, they keep getting re-elected. The time is now to get the fuck out of those states, and let them go on their repub ways.

before marriage or outside of marriage - and/or for having abortions.

They want those who don't die to be afraid.

You're easier to control if you're afraid.

They want obedience from women.

They want women to behave exactly as they think a woman should behave - subservient at all times.

They hate women.

I loved, respected and admired my mother...

I have one sister I love, respect & admire...

I have numerous cousins, aunts, & close female relatives I love, respect & admire...



I CAN NOT UNDERSTAND THE REPUQ'S HATRED OF WOMEN!

What the fuck is wrong with them?

NONE OF THEM WOULD BE HERE IF IT WASN'T FOR A WOMAN
