Texas supreme court just made the dumbest move possible politically.

[scruffy]

It is murder.

Of course it is.

State sanctioned murder, even.

We usually use that against the bad guys, but in this case it's more along the lines of a mercy killing.

Whatever the case, the state has no business making medical decisions. Period. The state knows nothing about medicine. How'd you like their Covid pitch? Juicy, wasn't it?

They ruled against Kate Cox even though she had already left the state for her treatment.

This ruling comes off a spiteful and mean, but as we know with republicans the cruelty is often the point.

Anyway, they had the opportunity to show sympathy, to be reasonable, to act like human beings, and they threw it away.

This is a gift for Democrats, but a sad day for the country.

Texas top court rules against woman who sought abortion for medical emergency

The Texas Supreme Court on Monday overturned a lower court's ruling that would have allowed a pregnant woman to get an emergency abortion under the medical exception for the state's near-total abortion ban, granting a petition by Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton.

It won't matter in Texas. The more spiteful and mean, the better they like it.

This is one of the reasons why I think the Democrats should not send another piece of campaign literature out in swing states like Ohio without the word "Ohiobama" on it. In Texas, the more needlessly cruel politicians and judges are, the more popular they are. There was a guy named Ted Poe back home in Houston; he'd sentence people to walk around with a sign saying they bounced checks.

Judges Are Resorting to Shame in Sentencing Criminals

Courts: Criminals wear placards or apologize to victims publicly. But some legal experts say the tactic is useless at best and repugnant at worst.

In other more evolved states (that would be roughly 49 of them) reminding the state that they are becoming more and more like Dixie just may encourage the voters to pump the brakes on that reverse evolution.

Your side is going to try and rig it anyway.

Its important to start setting up your whining excuses early. You have learned much from your Trumpfather.

Women cannot be trusted with their own bodies

Once again women are complaining about laws (proposed or enacted) which make us a moral country. Saying you want control of your own body is a great slogan, but are you going to live your life in a good moral fashion if you get the control you want? Obviously more laws are needed. ---Allow...

Yes yes, we already know you're the world's biggest INCEL.

Go do your thing waaaay over there, nobody here needs to see it.

 

[Crepitus]

Courts rule on law, not what looks good.

No wonder your side looks so stupid.

LMAO!!!

There is no sympathy in slaughtering a child.

Except when Trump is for it. He says Six Week Bans are a terrible idea. 90 percent of abortions are between six and sixteen weeks .

 

[HikerGuy83]

LMAO!!!

Thanks for making my point.

 

[GMCGeneral]

Yep. A gift for the Dems. That ruling just started the beginning of the end for Republicans in Texas. Though it will take awhile, The majority of women in Texas will be the ones that bring the change so desperately needed to shit hole state.

Ahh another supporters of permanent far Left rule. Know what? Go get shot.

Thanks for making my point.

YOu didn't have one.
