Next on the proverbial chopping block for those states banning abortion.

Just wait.

The ban on over-the-counter pregnancy tests. That's right. If you want to know if you're pregnant, you'll have to go to a doctor's office and have your results registered with the state, which will begin to monitor you if you are pregnant. Stuff like nine months will be registered with your name, and if you don't give birth by then, a criminal folder will be opened on you.

1. I was thinking the same thing. OTC pregnancy kits prevent total control over women.

2. Order them on Amazon.

SCOTUS and the states will have a harder time blocking interstate commerce and freedom of travel. When calling clinics out of state, use someone else's phone.

5. I'm more than a bit concerned it will become a ploy to kill the USPS

An underground mail service will be argued as promoting unlicensed pharmacists. And obstructive congress people will argue that the Post Office, and other carriers can't be allowed to be a supportive arm of criminal activity.

The power to interfere with mail and complete loss of mail-privacy will be pushed to allow interception of the new contraband.

From there it's just steps to having Postal Service Police arresting people and prosecuting them under racketeering laws for organizing and assisting in 'criminal' networks of traffickers of contraband pharmaceuticals.

Maybe even contraband condemns if Clarence Thomas gets his wish.

4. Kick

Almost half of U.S. states have banned or tightly restricted abortion pills — two medicines named mifepristone and misoprostol — and more could soon follow suit.
