      They were never pro-life. They were never even pro-birth. They’ve never argued for anything like free pre-natal care. If something is wrong with your baby and you and your baby are going to die, that’s god’s will, so don’t you dare get an abortion.

      They are not pro-anything. They’re anti-abortion. That’s as far as it goes whether they admit it or not.

    Please support Elevated Access in any way you can. Even if you are not a pilot or know jack shit about general aviation, you can help. Donate to them or reach out and drive a friend to a local ga airport. Its probably outside of your hometown. Ill land on a dirt strip to help.

    I personally fly for them. Many pilots in texas do. We can cross state borders to get texas women the care they need and deserve. Colorado or new mexico doesnt have to be a ten hour drive. Ken Paxton and his ilk want to shut down the state highways to stop pro choice in Texas, but they cant stop federal airways.

    This is a form of class warfare: it isn’t the rich women - they can go out of state or country to get proper medical care if they need it… it’s poor women that are bearing this awful cost.

        They will when their wives and kids die. They are the ones that will kill their politicians, because they don’t have empathy.

          Their families will be fine. They will just go out of state, or out of country if need be. The poor will suffer. So it goes.

            Don’t know if you aren’t from the US or have only lived in a city. Either way you wiffed.

            Weathy families have always been fine, they aren’t who are dying or the only ones armed; especially not in Texas.

              Sorry… what do arms have to do with this? I’m pretty sure doctors don’t recommend using speeding bullets as a safe way to end a pregnancy.

      Let’s rephrase your question a couple of times:

      “How difficult is it to remain abstinent when you’re married and don’t want a kid since birth control might fail?”

      “How difficult is it to remain abstinent when you have been given inadequate sex education in your red state school and don’t understand how to have safe sex?”

      And then there’s-

      “How difficult is it to remain abstinent while you’re being raped?”

        It’s really difficult. You have to draft legislation, deliberate over it with room full of bureaucrats, hope and wait for it to pass sigh good session, guys, now where to for lunch?!

        Meanwhile, the decentralized solution is to refrain from recreational sex. It’s super easy to do! I use Arch btw.

          I’m detecting your sarcasm but it’s better to just go with ‘/s’ unless you want the downvotes.

          That explains why it is easy for you. (joking)
