So the First Amendment is now also a states rights issue, according to the Christian* nationalist right???

New abortion ban bill introduced in SC Senate would prohibit anyone from telling a pregnant woman that she could go to another state for an abortion, prohibit anyone from driving her there, and prohibits a website from providing info about abortion. This cannot stand.

1. Isn't there some law or something...

About holding someone hostage?

[PuraVidaDreamin]

2. An over abundance of freedom!

What I don't understand-

Is the cognitive dissonance.

[Maine Abu El Banat]

3. That's the freedom crowd

[overleft]

11. Laws like this are pure fascism!

[Magoo48]

16. ReTrumplican Borg, fascist patriots. FreeDumb.

[multigraincracker]

4. How are those laws

against rape and incest working for ya? These will work even better.

[Marthe48]

5. Maniac fascists should be arrested as soon as they say

shit like this.

I recently came to the conclusion that we are being overtaken by people who are a clear and present danger to our democracy, and they are as much of a threat to our country as bombs getting dropped. Or trucks being parked in front of public buildings.

6. Government Tyranny from Get the Government Off Our Backs Republicans

7. This is silly shit on steroids...

Why not arrest every women who gets pregnant and hold her until she delivers…problem solved

[Ferrets are Cool]

12. That wouldn't work at all. The US would lose a major section of it's work force.

Instead, just hire 3 deputies for each pregnant women. One for each 8 hr shift to watch over her to make sure she doesn't get an abortion.

[ashredux]

20. Yep...better idea. You should run for office

[Ferrets are Cool]

25. ...

[dlk]

8. This is fascism

And an outrage. Republican hatred of women is on full display.

[The Jungle 1]

9. We are on the other side of freedom.

The right is banning:
Abortion
Birth control
EPA
Voting rights
Gun control laws
Minorities
Books
Fascism is a form of far-right, authoritarian ultranationalism, characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition, and strong regimentation of society and the economy. wiki
Call it what it is

[Ferrets are Cool]

13. Don't forget the banning of the 1st Admendment, ie Don't say Gay.

[The Jungle 1]

14. I need to add that to the list.

[TheBlackAdder]

15. Wait until all of those MRA types find that their PR0N channels will be blocked or heavily monitored

[Lonestarblue]

10. Just the first of the laws and surveillance system that red states will set up to track women.

People—and the media—should be asking how states plan to enforce all their news laws forbidding travel and use of the Internet to order pills. The only way a state can prevent a pregnant woman from traveling to another state is to monitor her sex life, outlaw home pregnancy tests to force women to go to a clinic where their information will be reported to the state, and use location device monitoring from cellphones to arrest her the minute she crosses the state line. That is the life the religious right has now imposed on women of reproductive age.

[Old Crank]

17. Is there a link to the bill?

[ancianita]

18. Then women should always say they are moving out of state. Then really do it.

[amb123]

19. Everything is a "states rights issue" to the Christo-Fascist right.

They want the states to have ALL the power and the Federal Government to have NONE.

[meow2u3]

22. The fascists want RED states to have rights

and blue states to have none. The rethugs want us to be forced to live under their thumbs--and with a gun pointing at us 24/7.

[LoisB]

26. Yes.

[TeamProg]

21. Bottom line, it's not a crime to suggest women go to a stae where abortion is not a crime. These RWs

are fucking fascists.

[sop]

23. We used to have Slave Patrols to regulate their comings and goings when not on the plantation.

Now we'll have Fetus Patrols to keep track of pregnant women while traveling.

24. As I Sit Here And Read This Thread

It makes me want to stand up straight and tall, throw my shoulders back, and proudly proclaim that things like this and the first shots of the Civil War, make MY STATE, the absolute BEST STATE in the Union!

In reality, I am so ashamed to be associated with these Nazi Brownshirts. The one thing that does give me hope, is the fact that I am now coming into contact with so many more Progressives than I ever imagined were living here. Being a huge retirement community, my home (Beaufort) is becoming more purple than red. I happen to live in a carved out section of town that actually is in the 6th Congressional District, represented by Jim Clyburn. Most of our County is in the 1st Congressional District, formerly represented by such loathsome individuals as Mark Sanford and Joe (You Lie!) Wilson. Nancy Mace is the current Representative there, but prior to her, Democrat Joe Cunningham was elected and served a 2 year term. I am encouraged at the progress that I see at the grass roots level here. Unfortunately, old, white, uptight, not so bright, men, are still in control of the State Senate and State House.

When is the DNC going to stop engineering Presidential candidates and start concentrating on these Statewide elections like the rethugs did 30 years ago when Bill Clinton got elected? These State Elections are now even more critical as the USSC has re-empowered the State's Rights crowd. If we are not going to expand the USSC, then the only way that we are going to be able to have our voices heard in any meaningful way, will be to start taking over State Legislatures. Protests are good, but the net gain is usually not very impactful. We Democrats are going to have to start playing by the same rules that the rethugs use. Use their very tactics to overtake them. After all, there are more of us than there are of them.

28. We'll said, P-Nutt

I am also an inmate of this asylum. Too many ties with kids, grandkids etc to consider leaving, but Lord this state has some form of mass psychosis.
The State is actually only about 55-45 advantage for the crazies, but it locks us out of any real influence in state government.

27. How can something so unconstitutional stand? N/T
