Abortion & the right to control one’s own body once galvanized a generation of women & it will happen again. But my heart breaks for the girls & women who will suffer along the way.
And while this may be a bad, hot take in a moment of anger that the courts failed us, it feels like there’s now a bounty on women’s heads, just like there used to be on escaped slaves.
I acknowledge that it’s a bad take in the sense that there is no comparison to slavery. But the bounty provision is particularly alarming in what it says about who has control over women’s lives. So no offense meant here.
Finally, & then I’ll try to stop, if you’re really pro-life Texas, pass measures for pre-natal care, education, nutrition, child care & other measures to improve children’s lives. Until then, this is just a political stunt.
