The last 24 hours they said Cops had no choice but to shoot an unarmed Jayland Walker 60X & kill him b/c “he fled”
Now Cops calmly arrested a heavily armed Bobby Crimo as he fled after killing 6 people & injuring 24 more
A system cannot fail those it was never meant to protect.
A 10-year-old girl is raped. The State forces her to remain pregnant and tells her to consider it an “opportunity.”
This isn’t Iran. This isn’t Gilead. This isn’t hypothetical.
This happened today in Ohio.
"Biden and officials are concerned that more radical moves would be politically polarizing ahead of November's midterm elections, undermine public trust in institutions like the Supreme Court or lack strong legal footing, sources inside and outside the White House say."
When pregnant women are reduced to being little more than vessels for the fetus growing inside of them, there is no clear endpoint. We don’t know how far it will go; all we know is that *anything* a pregnant woman does or doesn’t do could be used against her in court.
Ohio deserves better.
We deserve better than criminalizing abortion.
We deserve better than telling survivors or sexual assault that their pregnancy is an “opportunity.”
We deserve better than Mike DeWine forcing himself into the room with you and your doctor.
Pro-lifers don't like complexity. At 17 weeks my placenta detached and he was much too small. I thought I felt my baby's frantic attempts to breathe. My OBGYN advised me to terminate the pregnancy, there wasn't much time. But I couldn't.
I have been advocating for abortion, reproductive rights, and bodily integrity for as long as I’ve had a platform and I’m running out of ways to word and frame the severity of the impact that fundamentalism has on our country. 1/2
The Parkland Cops ran away. The Buffalo Cop was killed instantly. The 3 Cops at Uvalde were overpowered, then waited 40 min to enter the school.
Veteran Cops repeatedly failed—but we’re supposed to expect Lunch Lady Doris & School Nurse Betty to stop a terrorist with an AR-15.😑
In case you think abortion laws don’t matter: last week a pharmacist declined to fill a prescription for a patient of mine with an ectopic pregnancy citing SB8 restrictions.
The same medicine that saved my life in 2013 when I had my own ectopic pregnancy

This is goofy but also shows the danger of justifying any legal reasoning solely on the writings/customs of the past (e.g. the bible, the federalist papers, the constitution)--leads to cherry picking passages that work for you and ignoring those that don't

@ClayParatore I would agree with this but usually the people are in boarding zone 4 and just in the fucking way for the the earlier zones to get in line
@jfrausto0621 I give anesthesia for a living, there’s not actually medication in the mask in adult anesthesia when we drift u off to sleep, it’s just oxygen. The meds still go in the IV, & they’re usually similar meds for what u had (assuming) so u could’ve counted until u didn’t remember lol
