I’m hard left and I accept less than that.
Do you have any links because I follow and support pro choice and have not heard that from the organizations I support.
Maybe you have some inside information that is not given to the rest of us.

well, the post is about Texas.
We know Louisiana is getting ready to floor-debate and vote on such a measure that says fertilization = conception = life, and would then allow no abortion "tactics" (abortifacients I think?). And if it passed their House and Senate, then it would go to the "pro-life" Dem governor ... but if he did veto it for going too far, doesn't seem they have the votes to override.

And Plan B and an IUD, that's what they do - keep the fertilized egg from successfully attaching to the uterus.

But as of yet, there is now law in place that makes them illegal that I've seen or heard of.

you're like a little bit left of Elon!

recent poll, 27% said absolutely no restrictions on abortion. same poll, about 10% said no abortion whatsoever.

You're not extreme enough to fit in the 27% apparently.

Most states have a limit. But some one quoted - over 90% of abortions, I think he said, are with the pill/ which is by the first 10 weeks. They don’t want any abortions. Are there crazies- yes one said to kill the baby at birth. I think it was about a sick or special needs babies. In the past, I’ve heard nurses sometimes just take away the help or let it die. But some babies would live n suffer. In some state now it’s in deliberations. It’s a hard decision. My son had a special needs boy, ultimately passed at 7. It was excruciating as well as a blessing. But I can’t blame anyone if they chose different. I just wouldn’t.

And people think I was guilty of hyperbole in this thread.

That's not what the Texas Tribune (a leftist publication) said. The part about the Trigger Law if Roe V Wade is sent back to the States is true - Abortions would be illegal in Texas.

Nothing about arresting women for having an out of State abortion.

They just wanna impose restrictions based on religious beliefs.
Democrats and Leftists are talking about banning contraception - they are the only people who are saying that. It's fear mongering, they NEED an issue for the Mid-Term Elections, because they sure can't run on their abysmal record.

Amazing what these Leftists dream up to try and scare up some votes.
You almost had me (pregnant men gave you away), but this sort of nonsense is exactly what the Democrats & Leftists (are there really any Democrats left except for Henry Cuellar, Senima & Manchin?) are going to buy - Hook-Line-Sinker

Twelve percent of the population doesn't want a woman to be able to abort even if carrying the baby will kill her.

So your scenario sounds like their favorite fantasy.

one reason there shouldn't be eleventy-seven threads on the same topic ... now I have to find the poll I saw. Which wasn't the 27% poll at all, but similar results from several months/couple years ago
