It may be worth noting, if it hasn't already been, that Louisiana was the first state to criminalize cannabis, back during the Jazz Age, kicking off what became a century of madness that the nation is only now escaping.
Well, if you ask them that question, they'll point to some example of an near-term infant that had a fatal abnormality (although they'll gloss over that part), whose mother had to be induced into labor and then the infant died a short time later. The "post-birth abortion" part comes in when they claim it was just left to die somewhere when it could have been saved. And if you can pin them down to any specific instance, you'll find none of it was true. The infant was completely non-viable and it was given palliative care for the few moments it was going to live. It's a terrible, painful thing for any potential mother to live through so of course they want to weaponize it and paint it as sluts tossing babies into dumpsters after squatting down in an alley and squirting out a kid. Or at least some woman, after nine months of pregnancy and God knows how long in labor, going, "Eh, I've decided I don't want to be a mother after all. Get rid of it" and the doctor apparently replying, "Sure, I'll just go cut its throat and harvest the blood for our adrenochrome stocks."
you're right, but i think there is a clause in all those laws that says if the patient is unconscious, there is no recognised advocate (family member etc) there, and the patient's life is at risk, the docs can prescribe medication without waiting to get consent (like, in a code blue, they don't stop to ask if the patient would like atropine, or other life saving meds) - this reads to me as a taking away of that clause, which is gonna result in a lot of unintended consequences
I was only aware of the federal schedule for controlled substances. Does this mean states have that as well? I think Louisiana is overreaching in more ways than one.
Apropos of Louisiana shenanigans, our benighted court system has ruled (repeatedly) that the divorced spouse in a same-sex marriage does not have paternity or custodial rights to his surrogate son because a) he's not the actual biological father and b) wasn't a "listed party on the gestational carrier agreement" between his then-husband and their surrogate. Plus, our state courts keep arguing that they don't want to get involved because that's a job for the legislature, despite what Obergefell says. In other words, the courts grudgingly accept legalized same-sex marriage but refuse to legalize anything associated with it like inheritances, property divestment, child support, or custody rights, which they know full good and well the legislature will never pass.
Don't they have a "presumption of marriage" or whatever it's called for babies born during a marriage? Like you have to actively prove that the kid is NOT yours if the child was conceived during a marriage? I don't understand why that would be any different in ANY marriage.
These sanctimonious fucking swine are going to legally legislate their self-righteous asses into a corner that they cannot get out of before too very long.
Let them fucking TRY. Do YOU KNOW what the bullshit would be?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? YO. GAYS HAVE DINK and MONEY. FUCK ALL THE WAY OFF!
That's what these "fetal heartbeat" bills are about. But that's also not "blood" in the Old Testament sense, either. That requires an actual heart and a functioning circulatory/respiratory system.
Well, you gotta draw the line somewhere. Personally, I think things like a recognizable nervous system makes more sense, but I'm not an expert in these matters like {checks notes}... Catholic clergy are.
Like the Bibble writers even knew what an egg is. They probably thought the dude spurts into the woman and then the spurt turns into babby and babby comes out nine months later and so that is totally the dude who did that.

The relentlessly dishonest malignancy of the Putin Party rolls on unimpeded by fact checking, a tidal wave of evil bullshit.
Ta, Robyn. Vote. Them. Out. AOT, K.
What the hell is a "post-birth abortion"? There's no such thing!
Please, people, y'all gotta vote blue.
These Republicans are beyond dangerous.

My favorite is all the libbbbrulll HOARZZZZZ who wait until they're nine months just because it's so much FUN....
i bet you the guy who secretly dosed his wife was a good old boy christian too... just saying that it seems to be on brand for these assholes.
I'd put money on it.
Don't medical providers and pharmacies already require informed consent for medical treatment? If not they should but you don't need this law.
you're right, but i think there is a clause in all those laws that says if the patient is unconscious, there is no recognised advocate (family member etc) there, and the patient's life is at risk, the docs can prescribe medication without waiting to get consent (like, in a code blue, they don't stop to ask if the patient would like atropine, or other life saving meds) - this reads to me as a taking away of that clause, which is gonna result in a lot of unintended consequences
It’s a MAN behind this. It’s always men (mostly).
I was only aware of the federal schedule for controlled substances. Does this mean states have that as well? I think Louisiana is overreaching in more ways than one.
So there's a federal schedule, but states can have stronger restrictions if they choose.
UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH!
Tell me when all of the addiction treatment clinics start opening up "Mifepristone/Misoprostol" treatment wings.
Crip Dyke’s “hittin’ the Mif”comment has killed me.

LOUSYana. Determined to be last of all 50 no matter what.

Just to be safe, my SIL made sure her partner had complete custody rights of their twins within a month of their birth and THIS was in San Francisco.

You know it.
Don't worry, that pesky Obergefell decision will be reversed soon, probably next year, and you won't have to worry about it any more.
However, keep your government hands off my mixed race marriage.
The fuck it will.

OT: Henlo, also too.
There are people hammering on my house.
Roofers are fixing the roof.
Why aren't farriers called hoofers?
Why aren't dentists called toothers?
Fun fact: all farriers are blacksmiths but not all blacksmiths are farriers. You have to know and work well with the horses and bless those who do.
Where the rain gets in?
I hope like coots that it doesn't rain tonight.

Henlo, is there an *error* in thees website?
I don't see any new posts or non-comments for a long time. Ples help.
Blame the solar storms.
The Roman Catholic Church actually still teaches that a fertilized egg - an EGG - is a human being from that moment on.
*Blink blink*
I mean whut
It may still believe that some cracker and wine turn into actual flesh and blood. Some time in the past they would kill anyone who denied that.
And all the non-Catholics yawn.....
They like to focus on that, not things that are easily known, like divorce, gluttony, ignoring the poor & destitute, gambling, etc.
They’d have to come down hard on many of their fellow Catholics if they strictly followed Biblical ‘teachings.’
Interesting, since the Bible is pretty clear that a fertilized egg isn't even alive.
Leviticus 17:14: "The life of every creature is its blood."
That's what these "fetal heartbeat" bills are about. But that's also not "blood" in the Old Testament sense, either. That requires an actual heart and a functioning circulatory/respiratory system.

I have lots of faith. But absolutely no faith in religion.
