Republicans in Texas have introduced a law expected to shut down all remaining abortion clinics in the state... and the conservative-dominated supreme court have not blocked it.

A terrible day for millions of Texan women... and a frightening precedent for the rest of the country.... Do the Republicans have a plan to de facto criminalise abortion in the USA?

womens bodies there choice and not religious fanatics or repulican zealots inspired by religious dogma, hearbeat or no hearbeat, womens choice, infact it should be free in america to have an abortion.
it obviously isn't, and looks like this could carry across the country, putting women in danger of going back to the bad old days of back street abortionists.
It's scary to think that America considers itself to be a world-class leader when certain states show they're no better than the countries they invade under the guise of human rights.
that goes for gun use as well, totally bonkers country.
Doesn't every citizen need to own an assault rifle?
not really 1ozzy, there are supposed to be 300 million people or so in USA and there is a gun for every one of those people. crazy.
Some are sensible, some own multiple firearms, some have a valid reason,,, some don't.
It's the some don't that would scare me.
Spicerack - // Andy, you think full term abortions belong in a civilized society? //

I don't think abortion 'belongs' anywhere, please don't try and put words in my mouth.

I think it is a dreadful situation for any woman to find herself in - but not as dreadful as having her right of choice taken away from her by overly-moral strangers who think they have the right to impose their views on other people.
There has to be a sensible line drawn here at, say, 13 weeks. Full term abortion is unthinkable, but at six weeks many women are unaware that they’re pregnant. Few women choose abortion lightly.
This has an unsavoury whiff of Gilead......
Much religion in the deep south. Root of most evil.

no that is switzerland and the citizen army and a low death rate.

Of course not EVERYONE has a rifle in the US even tho the av is one. Many dont own nutting which means that if you own one you are likely to own more.
State Laws vary: some oudda country hicks heard the election was being stolen. And they piled into their cars with guns and crossed state lines. They were promptly arrested under THAT state's laws for carrying arms in a public place ( cars count )
anyone got an URL for the judgement

Good to see this 'uncomfortable' subject of abortion being discussed, and people should be made aware of the scale of the abortion issue:

28,720,733 Abortions this year/ 39,609,616 Deaths this year

Too many people use abortion like contraception. Killing a baby is abhorrent -it's not the baby's fault even if it is conceived through rape or incest. If a woman is assaulted, she does not cut off her arm because it was broken by the person who assaulted her, she puts up with the injury until it heals. Babies should be allowed life and adopted if the mother wants nothing to do with them.
Auntpg So you are saying that a woman who has been raped has to live with the memory of that every day that she is carrying that baby and give birth. That a woman should deliver a Rubella baby who could be blind, deaf have heart problems and severe mental impairment. That a baby should be born with part of its brain missing. Would you be capable of caring for these babies. Some anomalies are not seen until the 12 week scan. Should a woman have to give birth only for the child to die almost immediately or suffer from its disabilities
APG - // If a woman is assaulted, she does not cut off her arm because it was broken by the person who assaulted her, she puts up with the injury until it heals. //

That's where your utterly laughable analogy collapses under the sheer weight of its own stupidity.

Babies are not 'broken bones', they don't 'heal'.

They live and they grow and they become part of a mother's life for the rest of her life, however long that may be.

And whether you accept that or not from your ivory tower constructed entirely of bone-hard moral superiority, some women are simply not able to deal with a commitment like that, for a vast number of reasons, every single one of which is unique to her.

You do your gender a diservice to come up with such a dreadfully inappropriate comparison of breaking a bone to giving birth to a child.

It is probably only a Texan issue. It is another case of of lawmakers imposing their outdated ideology on other people.
