No such thing as women's rights in Texas, where a bunch of fat old white males can tell a 12-year-old raped by her daddy that she must carry the child to term or face prison. Whatever happened to classic old-school it's-none-of-the-government's-damned-business conservatives like Barry Goldwater? There used to be some, I swear. There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t. – John Green, author | |||

Come on Bill. Lady Texans are less liberated than anywhere else on earth? Fortunately the women of Texas are so free they can speak for or against, rally for or against and vote for or against any topic they deem appropriate. There isn't a Ukrainian, Russian, Israeli or Palestinian woman that enjoys the freedoms Texas women do. | |||

You just do not appreciate the evolving concept of libertarianism Bill. It is libertarian to scream and stomp about a restriction on 32 oz soft drinks that might impact your ability to slurp down a Big Gulp. It is your right to be fat and unhealthy. However, it is also libertarian for the fat middle aged white guy slurping on his Big Gulp to tell the preteen rape victim that it was God’s will that her daddy got her pregnant and she needs to be a big girl and become a mommy. The completely illogical inconsistency between the positions, much less the hypocrisy, is just a big swooshing sound going over their heads. Mike | |||

There were some Bill. My Paternal Grandmother Virginia R Beaham was an Alternate Delegate to the 1972 Republican National Convention from Arizona. She was a dedicated BGB (Barry Goldwater Backer) from the start, and even more so after his loss in 1964. Two of the other notable Delegates from Arizona whom she accompanied that year to Miami were also BGB's Jon Kyl and the late Sandra Day O'Connor. I would say I long for those days, but, I would be accused of being a privileged racist curmudgeon if I did... . | |||

Scott, the abortion ban is so total here that only under the narrowest life-threatening conditions may a doctor perform one. And the conditions are so vague that all the doctors in Texas are afraid of going to prison if they somehow misinterpret these rules that no one can quite define. So one gal whose life was in danger simply had to go to another state to save her life. Here's where it gets really nasty: Friends and neighbors are encouraged to report any Texas woman going out of state for a procedure so that she may be punished. It's a page right out of Cuban Communism, or Nazi Germany urging people to inform on one another. And people call this "conservatism?" There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t. – John Green, author | |||

How do you punish someone for something done in another state? If gambling is illegal in your state, and you go to vegas, can you be arrested? Biden should have just said, all military bases can do abortions. Done and over by executive action. | |||

How do you punish someone for a “crime” committed out of state? Ask the TX AG, since he’s the jackass threatening such action. You can get paid to be an informer, just like in the USSR and East Germany. The Stasi and KGB come to mind… Conservatism at its’s best. Vote Trump- Putin’s best friend… To quote a former AND CURRENT Trumpiteer - DUMP TRUMP | |||

Ken Paxton, the Texas attorney general, is so corrupt he makes Trump look like an altar boy. Yet they worship him here. There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t. – John Green, author | |||

Im quite certain that if the women of Texas feel infringed they'll use their right to speak, assemble and vote. Who knows, maybe Texas women will use their 2Ammendment right to secure their freedom. | |||

Bill, did you chose to come here.....or where you forced or coerced some how. We Texans kind of like it here..... . | |||

OK, by what legal standing, can someone be punished for something legal in another state? Again, does that mean gambling too? Or anything else? Has this been challenged in court? | |||

There are no such things as parental rights as long as liberals have a say, and no such thing as individual rights as long as governments, regardless of party affiliation, believe their purpose is to govern, and not to serve, the people. Regards, Bill. | |||

Texas Supreme Court stopped a woman from receiving a medically necessary abortion. No, women in Texas are not liberated. How many times have we heard giving women the right to vote was a bad idea. First, the assumption is wrong. Women were not given the right to vote. A) They were unjustifiably, arbitrary, capaciously, and unreasonably denied the franchise. B) They fought for it and earned it the right way. Through debate, civil disobedience without launching a violent attack on the Capitol, and the market place of ideas. As for parents right. So long as the parent agrees w Dr. Easter can the parent’s choice be honored by the government. The child in Texas under his model of libertarianism shall: Deliver the child conceived in rape, Shall not have access to sex education and birth control, Say the prat he approves to the god he believes in, Read only the Dr. Easter approved books at the public library, Shall not be taught the real reason for the Civil War being slavery, Shall not receive hormone therapy for gender dysphoria, Shall use the bathroom Dr. Easter assigns, Shall remain in Texas to deliver a child conceived by rape, or every one is getting prosecuted, Shall only be attracted to another child off opposite sex, Boys shall be encouraged to sex girls as a sex enjoyment. Girls shall be instructed that sex is wrong and only for procreation as their appropriate place in society, If a parent does not want their child exposed to a bunch of guns or expects the state government to provide adequate and trained law enforcement at schools too bad, And Shall not view Renaissance Art. Oh, I forgot, the child shall be compelled by the state to stand in public and recite oaths of loyalty to the state and the Party’s leader. As long as the parent agrees with all the above, the parent may have parental rights in Texas. Otherwise, no parental rights in Dr. Easter’s Texas. | |||

Do your professional peers and family know how hard you lust for Doc Lane? This addiction to butt sniffing you have is pathetic. Get professional help. | |||

Parental rights? They don’t exist in Texas according to their governor! $10,000 reward if you report your neighbors daughter, wife, or even grandmother for having an abortion! Dr Easter seems to have a knack of looking at one side of the coin to form his convoluted opinion! | |||

Jtex, I chose to come here as I wanted to live in Texas since I was a kid in the 1950s listening to my grandmother reminisce in her Texas accent about the fish fries, the dances at the ranch house, riding her bay horse along the Canadian before World War 1. Then I learned just how many ancestors I have buried all over this state. How one great-great grandfather rode all the way from Virginia at age 17 to lie about his age and enlist in Jack Hays's First Texas Mounted Volunteers in May of 1847. How another great-great grandfather, partners with Logan Vandeveer in the first business in Burnett, was ambushed and murdered on his way to San Saba in 1856. That sort of thing. I don't feel a stranger here, but don't particularly feel welcome and will return to New Mexico with her mountains and trout streams before long. That said, watching Paxton and Abbott try to destroy our local, very decent and conservative state rep because he voted for impeachment and voted against the damned voucher program, I don't think Texas politics can be beat for bare-knuckles meanness. There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t. – John Green, author | |||

It’s in the Texas abortion law. And no, it hasn’t been tested in court… Just like MN virtue signaling that MN law protects out of state folks who get an abortion here. | |||

Unfortunately the clip lacks a preface, context, or quantification. However, were I to guess, I would say he's referring to the parents of thousands and thousands and thousands of indigenous children who died in Canada's Government's residential schools and were then dumped in unmarked graves. Oh Canada... . | |||

This isn't liberal in any sense of the word. It is anti-liberal. Authoritarian is the adjective I would choose. . | |||
