The ruling by a unanimous panel of fifth US circuit court of appeals comes amid a wave of lawsuits focusing on abortion exceptions

The US government cannot enforce federal guidance in Texas requiring emergency room doctors to perform abortions if necessary to stabilize emergency room patients, a federal appeals court ruled on Tuesday, siding with the state in a lawsuit accusing Joe Biden’s administration of overstepping its authority.

The ruling by a unanimous panel of the fifth US circuit court of appeals comes amid a wave of lawsuits focusing on when abortions can be provided in states whose abortion bans have exceptions for medical emergencies.

Why the fuck would anyone want to ban medical emergency abortions? How would any sane person think this is a moral stance? The only goal is to kill women. How is this a mainstream political party’s stance?

Just declare open season on women already. Jesus Christ these people are fucking sick.

Remember when Trump supporters said they didn't want to ban abortions? Remember when they said they just wanted to bam late term abortions? Remember when they said that they wouldn't ban medical emergency abortions? Or rape?

It's infuriating talking to these people, I remember how they were playing it of as the rest of us being crazy and projecting our own hysteria. What the fuck do we do with people like this? Trump tried to overturn the democratic process and people still support him. Similar with abortions they downplay and lie about what the consequences would be if he wins. Talking and reasoning with these people clearly does not work. I now understand more than ever how a country can spiral into something like Nazi Germany. And the only thing I learned is that there is very little you can do about it when these many people are this fucking stupid.

What the fuck do we do with people like this?

In my less-charitable moments my ideas involve claw hammers.

I just want to cut off their diabetes medicine and watch them suffer in front of their families.

Just tell them there are nanochips in the insulin and you won't even need to cut them off.
