Texas judge grants permission for woman to access healthcare.
That’s what really happened.
“There are no facts pled which demonstrate that Ms. Cox is at any more of a risk, let alone life-threatening, than the countless women who give birth every day with similar medical histories,” the state wrote
Wow. They really don’t get it, do they?
Of course they don’t. They’re men. If THEY were the ones who could get pregnant, you bet your damn life that there’d be “Get Your Free Abortion Here” clinics on every corner of every street in every city around the globe.
Were this my wife and this bullshit caused her to die
You are the sort of person we need wearing the Punisher symbol. Not these wannabe cops.
Can I go to court and get their permission to jerk off since it’s killing a couple trillion babies?
It’s always better to ask forgiveness than permission.
“The idea that Ms. Cox wants so desperately to be a parent and this law may have her lose that ability is shocking and would be a genuine miscarriage of justice,” Gamble said.
I can’t decide if that’s a clever choice of words, or a really poor choice of words.
I mean, it’s in the article. This pregnancy, which will not survive, has a significant chance of destroying any chance that she can ever carry another pregnancy if allowed to come to term.
To preserve her ability to carry another healthy pregnancy to term, this one must be terminated.
Doctors do things every day to prevent serious harm later and this should not be a situation that demands a woman and her doctor to freaking BEG a judge for permission to be able to follow the medical recommendation.
It’s Texas, they literally don’t care about this poor woman and the crap situation their philosophy has put her in, in fact they don’t even really care about the baby, despite their claims to the country, they just like having power to impose their oppressive worldview on everyone else. They couldn’t give a flying rat about the consequences.
That decision is likely to be appealed by the state, which argued that Cox does not meet the criteria for a medical exception.
Great, hold it up in the appeals courts to get the stupid outcome you want regardless of whether you win the appeal, the State. This is the definition of abusing the judicial system.
That’s a precedent! LET’S GOOOOOOOO
Oh isn’t that the pinnacle of christian goodness for his highness the judge to dismount from his high manly horse long enough to grant a lowly peasant commoner, and a WOMAN no less, the right to get the healthcare she requires. Let’s all bow down and kiss his royal purple ass in thanks. Thank you, conservative men, for ensuring that all women and girls no longer have to be burdened by independence and self care. What a noble gesture.
The judge is a woman.
The judge didn’t write the law and SHE was the one that granted the exception, dumbass
inb4 they jail the judge
Somebody in Texas has common sense.
It’s a big state. The law of large numbers ought to apply.
So, tomorrow we should be seeing tons of articles about all the death threats he’s receiving from the cowardly conservatives then?
No need, the TX supreme Court just issued a temporary injunction blocking this decision pending scrutiny. Subjecting medical decisions to the court system is what Texas does because they love freedom and small government.
