Lawmakers in several Republican-led states have introduced legislation promoting “fetal personhood,” the idea that fetuses and embryos are entitled to the same rights as people. But critics say fetal personhood laws create legal chaos and have ripple effects beyond abortion, from contraception acces...

“Fetal personhood” was always the next shoe to drop after they overturned Roe. I was a little surprised the court didn’t go straight there in Dodd.
All that shit the court said about the states being able to decide about abortion? Lies. These right-wing nutcases are out to ban abortion everywhere. And they will, through fetal personhood. We can’t pass a law to kill a PERSON without due process, can we?
It’ll happen in the next five years unless we reform the court or impeach the six frauds. Based on our current tendency to go from bad to worse, I doubt either of those will happen.
Emigrate now if you can.
- How? Where? None of us have money saved anymore. Groceries and rent have made sure we can't save any money for anything.
  ...Unless, there is an adopt an American family movement I haven't heard of? Can we start one?!
  
  I'm Sally Struthers, and I'm here to talk to you about the reality of life here in the nation of America. This is a photo of Timmy. Timmy is a 28 year old middle-manager at a large box store. With just $400 a week Timmy can finally afford the new master cylinder in his 2006 Camry and get a new used iPhone 8.
  Please give today.
  
  Sad violin music plays and swells, pan over wide eyed, hopeful Americans with light luggage packed, waiting patiently for their new family, an arm waves tentatively, friendly but scared...

- Not the only next step. They are also looking to ban contraceptives. IUDs will be up first because some believe life begins at fertilization.
  
  How the fuck would they even do that. Stopping fertilization isn't killing a 'person' as defined by them either.
  
  Moralizing laws aren't new at all. Look at how many "dry" counties we have, how many places close liquor stores on Sunday, the restrictions on strip clubs, the history of sodomy laws... the Evangelicals have been trying to take over for a long time and this is what happens whej we tolerate even an ounce of religious rule.
  
  The evangelicals have been terrorizing normal people and forcing their bigotry on everyone for centuries. Enough is fucking enough.
  
  My ancestors came to the conclusion that it starts when they get annoying. Its just that we cant take counter terror actions we once did because of things like forensics and police, just let us burn them in their churches damnit. Also we usually ignored the more humanist ones, atleast yoh could have reasoned debate with men like John Brown so long as it wasnt something like slavery.
  
  I didn't think they let it get to fertilization. The copper ones kill sperm with ions and the others, I thought, were just slow release hormonal BC.
