AUSTIN, Texas – Leaked video shows Hood County Constable Scott London, Hood County GOP Chair Steve Biggers and Hood County GOP Chair candidate Greg Harrell attending a meeting held by Abolish Abortion Texas (AATX) where they supported the death penalty for women who seek abortions or use IVF, including pregnant minors. London and Harrel have also signed onto a pledge from the same group vowing to abolish all circumstances of abortion care in Texas.
Surprised it’s a leaked video, and not a campaign ad
Don’t give them any ideas, the tube’s gotten toxic enough lately.
By this logic, all the republicans that have caused the premature death of people by not providing healthcare, homeless services, meals for children, living wages, and cause people to be caught in vicious cycles of poverty and drug abuse should also be put to death. Line them up!

It’s not logic, and trying to argue with them will never work. It’s disdain for and a desire to control women, period. Conservatism is about hierarchy, and people having their proper place in it. These laws and outlooks are about trying to keep women in their place in the hierarchy. The same can be said about laws against LGBTQ people.
Envious of the the talibans and the stonings?..
They are taking on IVF. Next they will start to say that people who had C-sections are not really mothers and their children were not actually born. (note: this is a real thing)
Fine; Children born via c-section were not actually born. That means they don’t have to pay taxes. Checkmate!
lol nice one
Also means they can kill Macbeth.
This is the same kinda thing that happened recently with Ohio and Michigan republicans where they were discussing how they intend to ban all gender affirming care for literally everyone. It’s almost like the Republicans are bigots and monsters who want to enact their bigotry and awfulness on the country.
Ah yes. Christian love.
where they supported the death penalty for women who seek abortions
When you’re so pro-life you loop around and become pro-killing.
Not much different from the Taliban over in Afghanistan. All the religious idiots wanting to kill women, even young girls.
Both are also following an old set of laws, completely unwilling to change anything even as society changes.
Y’All Qaeda, everyone.
This will have no effect in an election year. /s
Republicans meet with Republicans. What else is new?
I’m starting to wonder if all this insane shit about punishing women over reproductive health care is an attempt to make domestic abuse acceptable.
Like I get it, not having control over someone you have shaky trust in doesn’t feel good, but maybe it’s not about control and it’s about that lack of trust.
Given that they’re trying to do away with no-fault divorce and one-party divorce, your theory is the natural outcome they seek.
Oh no that’s the entire trad movement and every time they say the man is the head of the household.
Conservatism should be illegal. Nothing good in the history of mankind has ever come from it. The only things to come from conservatism are oppression, bigotry and death.

Your defense of conservatism is incongruent with the historical tendency of every nation’s most conservative population to oppress the vulnerable.
Your definition of the word conservative is impractical as it casts all participants of a functional culture as conservatives. In this way, you and I have different definitions of the word, which makes this an unimportant argument of semantics, rather than a profound ideological debate.
You prefer to defend conservatives by re-labelling them as something distinct, but this only allows conservatives to wiggle out of the crosshairs over and over again as they point to the “other” conservatives as the culprit of their collective behavior.

Eh, your democrats in the US are Conservative to Europe. Your “left wing” is pretty much on par with our right wing.
This is true. There are only a handful of progressives in the Democrat Party.
We don’t have a progressive party. We have a conservative party and a more conservative party.
that’s fucked up. crazy fucking right wing nutjobs.
Under his eye
May the lord open
But both sides!
Yes, my butt is symmetrical. Both left and right buttcheeks are there.
