In February I compiled a bunch of data from sources including Texas Health & Human Services, Texas Policy Evaluation Project, the Journal of the American Medical Association, & the US Census Bureau in order to figure out what abortions in Texas looked like post-Dobbs.
Since virtually all the abortion clinics in TX shut down, the obvious question for many would be, "What abortions? It's illegal now. Right?"
Wrong.
I was looking specifically for data on out-of-state abortions and mail-order abortions, and what the data suggested was tragic.

M72 LIGHT ANTI-TANK WEAPON (LAW) - END OF THE VIETNAM WAR 50TH ANNIVERSARY COMMEMORATION
The standard anti-tank weapon during the Vietnam War, the M72 LAW continued the legacy of WWII’s “bazooka,” providing frontline troops with compact, lightweight high explosive firepower.
The standard anti-tank weapon during the Vietnam War, the M72 LAW continued the legacy of WWII’s “bazooka,” providing frontline troops with compact, lightweight high explosive firepower.
Developed during the late-1950’s as a cheap anti-armor weapon, the M72 was a 2.6 inch single-use HEAT warhead launcher. Just over two feet long and weighing 5.5 pounds with a range of about 660 feet, the M72 was a great improvement over its WWII-era predecessor.
U.S. Army soldiers found the M72 to be the perfect anti-armor and anti-emplacement weapon for the dense jungles of Vietnam; its collapsed carrying state was waterproof, and its low weight ensured it did little to burden soldiers in the Southeast Asian heat and humidity.
In "Using Bruen to Overturn New York Times v. Sullivan," @msmith750 and @xanderrhetoric write, "There is reason to think that the Court may seek to apply this historical tradition approach beyond the Second Amendment context . . .
. . . While the Court states its historical tradition approach applies in Second Amendment cases . . . the Court itself justifies its approach in Bruen by referring to other constitutional rights—including the First Amendment.”

The 2022 UCC Amendments help promote stability & predictability in commercial transactions related to a variety of cryptocurrencies (whether intrinsic, non-intrinsic, NFT, or otherwise). A thread clarifying some of the critiques by @theblaze's Daniel Horowitz & @1MarkMoss 1/n
@theblaze @1MarkMoss First, it is worth noting that the UCC is maintained as a joint project of the Uniform Law Commission and the American Law Institute. I am neither a ULC commissioner, nor a member of the ALI. I am a #law #prof @SMULawSchool & have been a #blockchain lawyer since 2011-ish 2/n
@theblaze @1MarkMoss @SMULawSchool I was, however, an observer on the 2022 UCC Amendments project over the long-haul of the project, and it was a long-haul - years in a process that was open to the public for participation...I am not sure changes to the UCC have ever been accused of being "sudden" before 3/n
