This Is How We Handle Our Citizenry in Texas



But wait....there's more...



Not just anything, obviously.  Women could throw shoes or the purses themselves. What the esteemed Senators didn't want to be pelted with was embarrassing feminine products.

And of course, the bill passed.
Texas politicians have given final approval to one of the US's toughest anti-abortion bills, but opponents are set to challenge the legisation in federal court.

[...]

Last Monday a federal judge issued a ruling temporarily blocking the introduction of a new abortion law in Wisconsin. Like the Texas plans, the law calls for doctors who perform abortions to have admitting privileges at a nearby hospital. The Texas bill also insists that clinics upgrade to meet the standards of ambulatory surgical centres and bans abortions after 20 weeks.

This is where you can now get an abortion in Texas:


Not even the preeminent University of Texas Medical Branch on Galveston Island.  Or perhaps, especially not, since that facility is a major treatment center for the uninsured and poor. 

As Miss Helen of Texas said:  "Margaret, if my vagina could shoot bullets it would have fewer regulations on it. "
