Friday’s decision by the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade will make abortions illegal in Texas in 30 days. The Texas Legislature passed a “trigger law” in 2021 that makes performing abortions in Texas a felony 30 days after the Supreme Court overrules Roe v. Wade.
“The U.S. Supreme Court correctly overturned Roe v. Wade and reinstated the right of states to protect innocent, unborn children,” Texas Governor Greg Abbott said in a written statement following the SCOTUS decision on Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization. “Texas is a pro-life state, and we have taken significant action to protect the sanctity of life.”

Unfortunately there will probably be a rush to kill as many babies as possible in the next 30 days. Similar to the marathon abortions performed before the heartbeat law went into effect. But after that killing babies will be illegal in Texas. Thank You Lord and Donald Trump for his SC appointments.

Maybe laws like this will keep all the yellow-dog D'Rats in states that have abortion and heavy gun control - they deserve the crime, high taxes and the awful quality of life.

Texas has been on the leading edge of important trends.
The first successful military revolvers were the Walker Colt revolvers, first issued in 1847 after a Col. Walker of Texas, formerly a Texas Ranger, then a US Army Colonel of Dragoons (horse soldiers) met with Samuel Colt and set the parameters that Colt turned into this huge, powerful military revolver, soon called the Colt Dragoon. Colt used the commercial sales of 100 extra guns added to this first military order of 1,000 guns, manufactured by Eli Whitney since Colt had no factory, as the springboard to earning the money to build his own factory and produce a long line of revolvers and handguns which continues to this day. The Colt 1851 Navy model and 1860 Army Model revolvers were significant factors in the Civil War. The small 1849 Pocket Revolver was widely carried by the Gold Rush pioneers in California and the west, in a pocket.
Go Texas!

My sweet friends in Missouri reminded me this morning their state’s conservative lawmakers put things into law two years ago making them the most pro-life state. I remember that and God Bless you Missouri fighters for Unborn Babies! I believe their last abortion mill closed in 2020. Their trigger law was readied in advance for this day to go into effect with strong enforcement of those who perform abortions or assist them.
Yay Texas and what looks like a number of red states doing this same thing today! Woo woo. My son said this may actually stem the eager flow of lefties into red states!!!
Thank you Governor Abbott. Thank You Almighty God that after 47 years the curse of our nation approving by law the murder of babies has finally been removed.

This is wrong. Unless they were there for the conception, they have no business trying to control women so much as to do this. Women are raped by any man or a father or a brother. Little girls as young as 10 are raped and become pregnant. We had one at a health unit where I worked. Some women are mentally not fit to have a child and some have serious health issues - a friend's daughter has Chrons. She lost her intestines in surgery because it was spreading. Then she got pregnant, which everyone thought impossible. So tell me, what part of these women's lives do politicians presume to make mandates over their bodies.

Re #10, respectfully, adoption is always an option. Murder doesn't need to be the first choice of convenience.

#10, there isn't a single woman in Texas that won't be able to drive to New Mexico or Colorado and slaughter her unborn baby. Heck, she can go to Cuba-fornia -- which has promised to become the Las Vegas of abortion. Free hotel room, drinks and a nice steak dinner with each baby slaughter.
At most, a woman will be a little more inconvenienced. Well, there are millions of us that don't have a problem with a little inconvenience being involved with slaughtering an unborn baby in the womb!!!!!
So cut the Kabuki theater!!!! it's really pathetic!!!

Expect CA to become the abortion capital of the US - at taxpayer expense. For every pothole you hit on your roadways, that's a free abortion using your tax dollars.

Not sure that's the answer, but is up to the people of Texas to determine.
It's possible that it becomes the new starting point for possible discussions on enabling abortion to be legal in Texas but with restrictions they choose. Maybe something more along what many European countries have, which is a limit at 12-14 weeks, and in the case of rape and incest, for example.
But, it's up to the people of Texas.

Actually, #10, on this topic the only presumption politicians ever made to make mandates over someone's body happened in 1973. 60 million+ bodies to date by some estimates.
This Dobbs decision only removes abortion out of federal jurisdiction and back to the states. It says nothing about women's bodies or what they can do with them. You're a long-time L-dotter who stays in touch with what's happening in politics and should know this already.

Pro-abortion advocates, often disguising themselves under the benign label of "pro-choice", center their arguments for widespread legalization on the extreme cases of rape, incest or dire health issues. Their strategy is that emotional appeals will override the moral revulsion at killing babies in the womb. This tactic has been successful for many decades among the soft-hearted. However, as the pro-death lobby pushed the envelope to include up until 28 days after birth, the "pro-choice" position becomes less tenable by the day.
Even in the case of rape and incest, the baby is still the mother's child - carrying half her DNA. Yes, girls of 11 or 12 giving birth is a tragedy, but so is ripping their first child from their bodies. These young girls are not left to their own devices. If we as a society can provide "services" to wipe away their motherhood, we should be able to provide the necessary services to support that same motherhood. Women who have health conditions can be supported through difficult pregnancies. There is no guarantee in life that every pregnancy is roses and balloons. In every abortion law, even the very first, there has always been the exception in case of the life of the mother. Yet, there are many heroic mothers who choose the life of their child over their own.
Women have a myriad of choices in birth control, including keeping their legs closed. There is no moral reason to kill babies in the womb. There is no reason to make having babies something for which women are ashamed. Pro life is pro woman, and pro man...and pro family.

Mother’s convenience should never be the reason. But otherwise rare exceptions should be possible.

My comment was never intended to be 'theater.' Yes I know about abortion and states rights to determine what rights a woman will have. There is a disconnect with the reality of the lives of some women and the stomping foot of those who think their belief should be forced on everyone.It shouldn't.

#21, do you think before you write?!?!?!? Seriously, you say that reversing R v W will "force beliefs" on people.
Well, what the heck have the pro-abortion people been doing since R v W became law?!?!?!?!? Forcing pro-life people to not only "accept" abortion, but fund it with our tax dollars!!!!!!!! You don't get more "forceful" than that!!!!!
As of today, each state can now represent their own people. If you don't like what Texas is doing, move to California. They have already declared they will be the Las Vegas of abortions. Free fancy hotel room, drinks, and a nice steak dinner with each baby you slaughter in the womb.
However, all that said, no woman in this country will be denied an abortion as of today. 10-13 states will outright ban abortion (but will in no way stop any woman in their state from travelling to a neighboring state to get an abortion). So their won't be any unborn babies slaughtered in their states. Those states, for the most part, have had very few abortion slaughterhouses to start with, so women often had to travel long distances or to another state to slaughter their unborn babies.
Probably that same number of states will make abortion legal in all (or most) cases for 9 full months. The rest of the states will put some restrictions on abortion, but probably allow them in all cases through at least the first trimester and longer in the cases you described.

The logical answer to the tragedies noted in #10 is to sentence the baby to death? I hear that argument a lot, and it usually winds up being an effort to justify abortion. Not to reduce the instance of those tragedies, but to kill the babies that are conceived through them.

This is suicidal, if we are indeed a party of unhinged maniacs we are giving Democrats a free pass to do anything, and we will lose the midterms, and then 2024.

If one takes that "moment of conception" literally, it has great impact on the legality and use of contraceptives. I have grave doubts the courts will buy that standard.
