@mott-the-hoople saidLess delusional than your statement about "babies".
“may be” ? what kind of delusional argument is that?
@jj-adams saidUncle Clarence mentioned just that. Try to keep up.
Don't have enough real things to complain about so you make up a list of freedoms they MIGHT want to target, even though no one has mentioned even trying to get rid of them.
Your What-If scenarios are just wishful thinking.

@phranny saidYou write too generally here for one to comment on. Taxes don’t cover private (parochial)schools. School choice would be the best of worlds. I agree that people need to take care of themselves and have health insurance. The 40M that are destitute, we should take care of.
But my taxes go to pay for parochial schools which i find disgusting. My taxes go to pay for your self induced health care issues brought on by your poor food choices, bad habits and risky lifestyle.

@phranny saidBy logic, given the basis for the Roe decision, he is correct.
"Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas says gay rights, contraception rulings should be reconsidered after Roe is overturned"

Also, check out the platform put forth by the Texas GOP. Here's a brief list.

@phranny saidYes, we have, thru taxes we pay to the states. You are yet another libwho does not close his comments. It is now closed and better understood. Suzianne also railed on about Hyde. To no avail.
You haven't been paying for abortions for the past 42 years. HYDE AMENDMENT
In U.S. politics, the Hyde Amendment is a legislative provision barring the use of federal funds to pay for abortion, except to save the life of the woman, or if the pregnancy arises from incest or rape.[1][2] Before the Hyde Amendment took effect in 1980, an estimated 300,000 abortions were performed annually using federal funds.[3] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyde_Amendment

@sonhouse saidSonhouse. Are you daft? Rape and incest are excepted. We done been over this.
@Mott-The-Hoople
Ever hear of RAPE or INCEST? Laws are being written in red states to stop abortion even in those cases. We already have a case like that right in our family, a former gf of one of my sons was 'convinced' to have the child of rape and now has lived with that for 12 years.
And forced to have the child of incest just screws up the gene pool, if you hadn't no ...[text shortened]... hat full well and WANT all that to happen including the end of democracy in the US. You fool no one.
@suzianne saidWe are talking about killing babies, are we not? While I have you, as a woman, what is the procedure about piercing the skull, drawing out brain, just what is it exactly, the procedure?
No one is killing babies.
Kindly pull your head out of your ass.
You know, given your last line above about pulling a head.....

@suzianne saidWhat in the world? Who do you think pays the taxes in this country? It includes me, if you wanna get personal.
One question: Did you actually pay any state or Federal taxes? Or was your tax obligation reduced to zero through Republican/Corporate tax loopholes?
If you pay no tax, then you have no voice in how taxes are spent.
I love your last sentence. So, you imply people who don’t pay taxes should have no voice. So, Sue, by your genius logic, the non payers should Not Vote!!! I absoLUTELY agree!!!
Think I will pop out a thread on that one. Hilarious.

@averagejoe1 saidNo we are not. 90% of abortions are done before 9 weeks of pregnancy when the fetus is about an inch long and has no developed organs.
We are talking about killing babies, are we not? While I have you, as a woman, what is the procedure about piercing the skull, drawing out brain, just what is it exactly, the procedure?
You know, given your last line above about pulling a head.....
Not even the fanatics at the SCOTUS were willing to pretend that fetuses have rights.
@averagejoe1You seem to be putting a lot of time, energy, and attention into this thread.
Is it because you are afraid of the future of "white life"?
@averagejoe1 saidTell Kristi Noem that.
Sonhouse. Are you daft? Rape and incest are excepted. We done been over this.
@AverageJoe1 "Rape and incest are excepted."
Not in Texas.

@vistesd2 saidTexas is a Christian nation. They don't have rape or incest over there.
@AverageJoe1 "Rape and incest are excepted."
Not in Texas.
