The fun-lovin' is bigger, and the BBQ is better, and the bullshit is deeper.

Once we get done fussin' about what a crock of moralistic authoritarian pig slop this is, we need to remember a coupla very important things:
From The Daily Texan:
A plurality of Texas voters aware of SB 5 were opposed to it, according to a Public Policy Polling telephone study conducted last weekend.
SB 5, brought forward in the first special session, would have imposed stricter state regulations on abortion. About 28 percent of voters opposed SB 5 while 20 percent supported it, and 52 percent of the 500 Texas voters surveyed by the study were not aware of the bill.
Once we get done fussin' about what a crock of moralistic authoritarian pig slop this is, we need to remember a coupla very important things:
First, this won't do a lot to prevent abortions - it won't drive down the demand for abortions. It'll only make the procedure a lot more dangerous for everybody.
Second, this won't prevent (eg) Sydney Perry (or any other woman of sufficient means) from getting on a plane and flying to wherever abortion is still safe and legal, should she ever be in need of some help in that regard. This stoopid thing will only impact the "lower class"; people who don't have the influence, power or money necessary to access the full menu of healthcare options.
