Can't wait to see what women do after Plan B is outlawed.

If the GQP lunatics succeed at doing that (which it's not clear they'll manage to do - as we've seen, yes there are bridges too far even for the corrupt right wing SCOTUS), it'll go about as well as the attempt to outlaw alcohol did 100 years ago.

You mean it'll create needless crime and suffering with the well-off fully able to get the good and safe stuff, while the poorest will have to use contraband with a high chance of damaging their health ?

Underestimating the unrepentant evil of the Republican party is what led to Roe getting overturned.

That's the fault of the site's shiatty mobile optimization.

Otherwise, this is one of the instances where the "Hero" tag is used correctly.

Prohibition caused untold damage to the Republic. The War on Drugs the same only much, much worse for much, much longer.

Unfortunately, I feel like violence awaits her, as well. She's not doing anything illegal - which will frustrate the RWNJ even further which usually results in violence from them.

Very few of the places I have visited over the years can compete with Lubbock as far as shiatholes go. You can stay at the "fanciest" hotel in town and still wake up sand grit in your teeth.

It's pretty sad that the husband's parents just cut him off. Hope they can afford a nice nursing home on their own.

That's Buc-ee's, pardner, and the only abortion they sell there is the Bohemian Garlic Jerky.

I didn't want to say that but to piggyback off that:

I could see what happened to those power substations happen to multiple health centers on or around the same day.

That's why the GQP is pushing to microchip all women.   They're pets, after all, and you wouldn't want to accidentally lose one.   Control the means of production.

FTFA: For six years, she labored as a field director for the Texas Democratic Party and as an organizer for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.

What's this? A member of the Democratic party actually doing something? That can't be. According to Fark's experts, the Democratic party does nothing useful, especially in Texas.

I hooked up with a really hot dude on a business trip there once, though, so it ain't all bad.

Funny, me too, and his wife. Place is full of repressed Jesus freaks looking to score at hotel happy hour being it's the only damn place you can get a drink in town.

If it was a normal thing people like you wouldn't be so desperate to cling to  rarities like the person mentioned in the article.

I guess never mind, I just googled it and it hasn't been dry in years now. Oh well. I don't intend on ever going back if I can avoid it.

Health centers have been attacked by Republican terrorists for decades now.
