Fort Worth Star-Telegram: Should Texas punish abortions by putting teenage girls and women to death? Or not?
Thats the current debate in the Republican Party of Texas, where outlawing abortion is no longer a question of if or when but a question of whether to kill women for getting one.

"Some other runoffs statewide match faith-and-values candidates who both want Texas governed by the Bible. They just cant agree on whether to use the Old or New Testament."

The Magistrate
(95,244 posts)If one believes abortion is murder, the conclusion is inescapable that a woman who procures an abortion has hired a killer, and the gang boss who contracts to a hit man is just as guilty of murder as the fella pulled the trigger. And of course a woman employing an abortifacient murders directly.
The mask will come off more and more frequently as the echo-chamber these people construct around themselves leaves them more and more assured they possess unassailable political power, and don't need votes anymore.
