See if you follow my crazy theory... (about new anti-abortion bill frenzy)

While reading this board I came up with this crazy thought.

All of the sudden, many states are proposing bans on abortion and it seems they might be successful. But

why? I know, I know... the ALITO issue, but that is the obvious.

The thing is that the GOP won't lose any Freeper over this abortion issue and some

Religious-Conservative-Democrats might be incline to vote for those Conservative

Senators or Governors because of this bill. Ok... before I lose you, my point is that the GOP will have

the cake and eat it too. They will place anti-abortion laws but these are symbolic since the purpose

will be only to get a few votes just the same way they are lame on inmigration. I know, it is

complicated. If I only could explain myself here. There will be no back alley abortions but very clean

ones. US Pharmaceutical companies will produce abortion pills to be sold overseas but those will

eventually make it to the US and politicians will just play dumb just like the war on drugs or

inmigration laws. Who knows, freepers are so corrupt they might form an abortion pill cartel.

want abortion to be mainly illegal. You won't see this in New England or the West Coast.

will pay the price.

People when I was coming of age, who had money, could get abortions. Poor folks, or young women, students, often couldn't. They wound up with all kinds of trouble and sometimes even died.

Mississippi - theoretically if they pass a law banning abortion people could just cross the state line. But what if they have no money, no way out of town?

It's always the little people who suffer.

It will be cheaper than to cross state lines or fight to where they could get an abortion.

time to take a pill. Especially young people.

girl will need an abortion, but the rub is it will be a back alley abortion.

That is the only thing that the RW gets, only if it happens to them, will they do something about it.

Reactive, not proactive

Once the law get to Congress and is passed by Bush he will comment that Abortion is only legal in cases where the life of the mother is in danger or she carries a baby who's father is non-white.

where there are "dry" counties that stay "dry" because certain county bigwigs either run bootlegging operations or "private clubs". I recall that MS was dry statewide for decades after Repeal. It got so the bootleggers advertised in the yellow pages under "distributors". So the hypocrisy is in place.

the "middle" America looks for feelings, not reality.

If I have a baby inside of me, OH yes, that would be a reality

A lot of folks don't realize that marijuana used to be legal in this country-it was only criminalized when Dow invented nylon, which was in direct competition with hemp. It stayed illegal and cocaine was added to the illegal list so that the CIA could fund operations without having to go through Congress. That the freepers might do what you say wouldn't surprise me at all.

However, I think these moves may backfire. Already I'm hearing of folks recoiling in horror at the thought of rape and incest victims having to bear what is the product of a crime. Add to this horror stories of women with dead fetuses inside who cannot get an abortion because their lives aren't in danger until their bodies go septic-there will be a backlash in this country, and the more states that do this, the more likely that backlash will come pretty soon.

Suicide will also increase and also murder (maybe the father is not ready to have a child and will kill the mother, etc.)

disagree. The fundies mean business. If you didn't see the clinic defenses in the 80s and 90s and you didn't deal with Operation Rescue, then you have no way of knowing just how serious these groups are. Even a little encouragement is enough for them to start violent attacks and to ram legislation through state houses.

a money hungry followers.

Sorry, I just don't get the connection

Nope.

The idiots who have been elected are like dogs chasing a car...and they caught it.

Now what the fuck are they gonna do with it.

anyone would be able to get them at the clubs like if you were getting condoms or worse, any drug.

is that men can control what I do with my body, NOT


I am a professional woman, so why do they have a say on how I make my decisions????????

If it only takes a pill... I can't imagine anyone going to get a full-blown abortion.

to make it more effective.
