I keep thinking that there are soon gonna be THOUSANDS of cases brought under this stupid law, and it could result in the courts being too tied up to handle anything else. Soon there will be webinars, "How to get your $10,000 by suing a child-killer" with detailed instructions on how to file and prosecute your own cases. There will be people who make their entire living off this stupid, stupid law.

Does anyone know if/where the newest snitch website is? I know Go Daddy took them down, then the next site took them down. I've heard people on twitter talking about them now using a site based in Russian-controlled Crimea, but I don't see any links so don't know if that's true or not.

I think they tried to move to EPIK but got tossed for violating the TOS.

A younger sibling of mine had an unplanned pregnancy a year ago... but she had known of certain personal health issues and was already planning to have everything removed. Hard decision. She has two young kids to stick around for.

Thankfully, she does not live in TX.

A good friend has a daughter-in-law who gave birth to a baby three months premature three years ago. The DIL nearly died. The little girl has many challenges ahead of her, including heart surgeries. Three months after the baby was born, she had a miscarriage that nearly killed her again. She got pregnant again about two years ago. The last time I saw her, she was pregnant. Less than a month later, they found problems with the baby. If she had even been able to carry to term, unlikely, it would have killed them both. The DIL is Catholic, and strongly resisted the idea of an abortion, the doctor's recommendation. But he was able to make her understand the seriousness of the situation, and she quietly had an abortion. She has a living daughter who's going to need lots of special care over the years.

Thankfully, they are not in Texas. I am furious that any legislator could so casually pass such a law. They have no idea how complicated pregnancies can be. They would have condemned my friend's daughter-in-law to death. But. They. Don't. Care.

South Dakota Gov. Kristi L. Noem (R) on Tuesday issued an executive order restricting telemedicine abortions and abortion medications, days after she called for a review of the state’s abortion laws.

The order mandates that abortion medication can be prescribed or dispensed only after an in-person examination by a doctor licensed in South Dakota. It also bans abortion medication from “being provided via courier, delivery, telemedicine, or mail service,” as well as on state grounds or in schools.

Social conservatives like Noem have been emboldened by the Supreme Court’s decision last week to not block a Texas law banning abortions as early as six weeks into pregnancy, or before many people know they are pregnant. In Texas, another bill that has been sent to Gov. Greg Abbott (R) for his approval also restricts abortion medications.

Remember the guy from Ohio who tried to legislate ectopic pregnancies be transplanted into the uterus?

Just saw this graphic on the interwebz. If I hadn't already made my witch sign, I'd have gone with this one.
(You all know I love Notorious RBG, but if I were making the sign for myself, I'd probably leave her picture off.)

So let's say a lady in Texas gets an abortion at 12 weeks instead of 6, and her mom (who never did get along with her daughter and really wanted a grandchild) gets all her medical records and posts them on Facebook, and the MSM picks up the story and pretty soon everybody in the great state of Texas knows her name, where she lives, and that she had an abortion.

How many people in Texas can sue her for $10,000 each? Can I rent a mailbox at a UPS store and then sue her, without actually having to move to Texas? If I swear that I'm the pastor of the High and Mighty Roly-Poly Church of the Near Insane (we're Christians), do I get my $10,000 before the damn Methodists and Catholics get a nickel? Here's my Motion to Get Paid First, me'n 47 thousand other people are filing pretty much the same thing. It's from a template we found on Facebook.

Whaddya mean I can't file my motion yet? I stood in line for 6 hours, and all of us are suing that one lady!

Foggy, IIRC, the law exempts the host/vessel from suit.

My grandmother got an abortion. She matter of factly told me that it was during the depression and they couldn't afford the child they had. My Mom was born in 1929. Grandma never had any other children. I wonder if the abortion made her unable to.
Mom hated being an only child. Had 6 kids.

My oldest sister (Basketball Sweetheart) was date raped by the captain of the football team. Right before R v W. She tried to commit suicide by an overdose of aspirin. None of us kids or my Dad (he'd kill her) knew she was pregnant. Mom sent her out of town to have the baby. Sis and her husband searched for decades to find her child. She desperately wanted to know if the child was OK after the aspirin OD.

College roommate got knocked up. Also just before R v W. Had an abortion. Almost died a few years later after she married and got pregnant. Doc said she could never have anymore children as the (illegal) abortion messed her up.

How often do you hear about women being messed up by an abortion since it was legalized? Unfortunately, we still hear about girls committing suicide because they are pregnant and don't have options.

I feel like we are going back to the dark ages...

Question: how is this law worded, does it cover spontaneous abortions like in a (car) accident. Will drivers now be accessories to abortion?

Can somebody in Texas confirm that all Texas rapists have a scarlet "R" on their foreheads?

They don't have that here in CA, so we can't arrest them all.

It's not on their foreheads, it's on their voter registration cards.

If a woman in texas aborts as a result of COVId caught as a result of Abbot's face mask ban.. can he be sued?
How many people can sue him?
Noting Foggy - you don't need to be in Texas to sue Abbot under this law.

Another idea for a sign.

They did.

NEWS: The Biden administration is preparing to sue Texas over its new law banning most abortions, an action that would set off a federal-state clash

There might have been a prior legislative action that set off a federal-state clash, just sayin'

Where does the $10,000 bounty come from? The state or the woman?

I believe whomever is successfully sued for helping her, doctor, neighbor, partner...

I bet the deep pocket docs are gonna be PISSED when a bunch of women show up at their clinics being chauffeured by some homeless guy they paid 10 bucks to drive them there. And how many people will actually follow through with all the time and energy required to sue someone when they don't get the big payoff at the end? I'm thinking the women with enough money to cover the judgment are the ones with enough money to go to another state for their abortions anyway.

Bad girl, bad girl, what cha gonna do when they come for you.
