Judge Halts Wyoming Abortion Ban Days After It Took Effect

[skews13]

Abortion will again be legal in Wyoming — at least for now — after a judge on Wednesday temporarily blocked a ban that took effect a few days earlier.

Teton County District Court Judge Melissa Owens’ decision halts the ban amid a challenge in her court to a law that took effect Sunday. The Republican-controlled Legislature approved the law despite earlier rulings by Owens that had blocked a previous ban since shortly after it took effect last summer.

An amendment in the Wyoming Constitution says adults have a right to make their own health care decisions, so Republicans enacted a ban that states abortion is not health care. However, Owens said it's up to the courts, not lawmakers, to decide whether that's the case.

It will move up to a sane judge soon.

What I don't understand is why liberals are so hot to trot for Abortion-on-demand or Gay "Marriage" and are so anxious to force those who don't think these ideas are that tremendous to do them.

Nothing stops knocked-up broads in Wyoming from crossing the border into Far Left Colorado after all.

Or chicks in trouble in Texas from crossing on over into Juarez to get their babies aborted.

Who is trying to force you to have an abortion or marry a gay person?

The whole point is the CHOICE.

YOU have the CHOICE not to get an abortion or marry a gay person don't you?

Why not let others make their own choices?

They DO have a choice in Wyoming. They can drive across the border into Colorado to kill their unborn, or go to Cuidad Juarez for a discount Mexican Abortiono.

What do you care if they have that choice in the state they live in?

That's why abortion laws belong in the states, each state decides how their laws will be designed. Then if a judge blocks what the legislature decides, the decision is appealed until a sane judge rules with what the state already decided.

It's the people, by referendum in a off year election (keeps the crazies on both sides from fucking up a regular election) who should decide the issue, not a bunch of legislators beholden to special interests one way or the other. Let the people of WY decide.

Settled law states that Abortion Laws are the option of each of the states- not the federal government.

choice.

or Gay "Marriage"

equal protection under the law.

and are so anxious to force those who don't think these ideas are that tremendous to do them.

there is no 'forcing' except for FORCING a female into subjugation if she is not willing to be a parent. & how exactly does gay marriage affect you, other than it makes you feel icky?

knocked up broads.

how cute.

some reality checks are needed for yer lack of critical thinking. traveling outa state requires a lot of additional expenses, taking time off of work that may not offer sick pay & child care are expenses for the ALREADY BORN.

Or chicks in trouble in Texas from crossing on over into Juarez to get their babies aborted.

you're an idiot.

I agree with that. Its certainly not up to a judge to make state law.

They do have a choice, they can go to Tijuana or someplace else if abortion isn't legal where they are.

Just like fans of cock-fighting or advocates of drunk driving can go some place else if they are in a jurisdiction that bans those activities.

If you libs are concerned about dames being able to afford to travel or pay to receive abortions, you should set up a charity so these chick's boyfriends won't be inconvenienced into ponying up.

How about calling it "Slay the Children", sort of an adaptation of the charity name "Save the Children"?

Looking to the government is a problem when you can just have bake sales and car washes to raise the funds.

Judges should not rule on what the legislature decides.

But the Dim ones do, then a sane judge has to reverse it.

Yep....Then she has other choices to make if things don't go her way.

Take heart though.....In every state that has put it directly to the people, abortion (with guardrails), has won.
