People who live in democratic countries pride themselves in having freedoms and rights, like the freedom of speech, the freedom of choosing their own religion, the right to education or the right to privacy. And most of them have the right to do what they want with their own bodies.

Sadly, it has to be said that this includes most but not all of them, because in some of them, such a decision like having or not having a child is made by the government and not the woman who is the one who will bear the child.

The internet is going crazy right now because Texas has passed a bill that came into effect on September 1st which states that a pregnancy cannot be terminated after the fetus is 6 weeks old.

    Every Republican: "Well it's my freedom to dictate what happens in women's bodies. And I'm prepared to invalidate the constitution and every amendment which could keep me from doing that. By the way, that's how I also think about voters rights for minorities. "

    The new Texas Anti-Abortion law authorizes anyone in the country to file a lawsuit against any abortion provider, or anyone who helps someone get an abortion, and seek a penalty of that person of at least $10,000 per abortion. Which does sound like the start of Nazi Germany when people were encouraged to snitch on family, friends and neighbors if they dared to doubt the Führer.

    I think women in Texas should just demand a law that all men be required to have a vasectomy. When they are mature and ready to have children, their vasectomy can be reversed.

    Error, Sharia law is much more humane in matters of abortion. With a strong and clear reason, permissibility becomes more lenient. Such cases include forced pregnancy (caused by rape), reasons of health and other pressing reasons.

    Yep. And these legislators doing their best to ban it know full well that the law will never apply to their families. They need to curry favor with the religious conservative wing of the party. If they have to sell out poor people to do it, oh well.

    Fact: Texas has a gun law now that permits everyone over the age of 21 to open carry a gun without permit or any gun safety training. And than there's that guy teaching women how to defend themselves against attackers. I'd say "Shoot them."

    That's why Texas has a new gun law. Everyone over 21 can open carry a gun without permit or training. If you're about to get raped, shoot and kill the MF. Women aren't banned from using the stand your ground law, yet.
