New York clerk again refuses to enforce Texas judgment against doctor who provided abortion pills
New York clerk again refuses to enforce Texas judgment against doctor who provided abortion pills
To wit: there’s a NY state law that makes it illegal for state officials to help shit-ass states like Texas follow through on legal threats like this within the context of the NY legal system. This is that law working as intended.
Or more succinctly: lick my taint, Ken Paxton, you fucking imbecilic psychopath.
it's only a matter of time before the supreme court forces new york to comply; i hope that the doctor is prepared for this and finds another way to help with protecting themself.
when slavery was a thing, the shitty laws from shitty states to reclaim escaped slaves took primacy over laws from abolitionist states that would have protected them due to the supreme court and it took a war to overcome it.
i hope that the doctor is prepared for this and finds another way to help with protecting themself.
The airport code is YYZ but driving up from Buffalo is cool too.
You'd think a world-class corporate news organiztion like Associated Press would be able to shoehorn that into the title somehow. And yet.
True story.
One night a woman came to our Catholic hospital ER in Central Texas because she was sexually assaulted.
The doctor prescribed Plan B because the victim didn't want to carry her rapist's baby.
Our hospital refused to dispense it. Poor woman had to wait two days to get it from CVS.
This is the reality
Excuse my life, but what the fuck is a Catholic hospital?
"Welcome good sirs to my church of the Bristol Stool Chart!"
Lots of hospitals were started by churches.
One of Texas's biggest medical providers is the Methodist Health System, with 12 full-fledged hospitals and over 100 clinics that started as a hospital in Houston founded by the Methodist church. For most people, it's just another hospital. The church doesn't get any of the money or anything.
Catholic hospitals, however, are a little more notorious for denying care based on religious principles - with abortion and birth control being the big one. They won't do abortions, offer contraceptives, or perform vasectomies, for instance.
The Seventh Day Adventists also have a shit ton of hospitals, the largest among the Protestant denominations iirc. You’ve probably heard of the Kellogg families impact on things like popularizing circumcision…
SDAs also have a substantial impact on the modern conspiracy theory landscape. The cult at Waco was an offshoot, Bill Cooper incorporated their propaganda in his weirdo narrative, if you live in the US you’ve probably got their book mailed about the “Sunday Law”….
Organized medical care has a long history of being carried out by members of religious orders, with formal doctors and nurses being pretty recent in the grand scheme of things.
There's a lot of Catholic-owned hospitals. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Church_and_health_care
Sorry to ask, but if such a place didn’t want to dispense it, why would they have it? Am I not understanding something about pharmacies here?
They should have it for the same reason they should have aspirin its called for.
Texas politicians are so shit they need to infect other states.
Get your shit together Texas.
They won't.
We'll just have to do what we've always done and sit back and watch Texans continually punch themselves in the face because they can't figure things out.
As a totally non correlated observation, I feel like there are a lot more Texas plates on the road lately vs previous years. And I'm in a way-up-north state.
they did have a flood recently, its rats fleeing a sinking ship.
they have a flooding, and this is all they could think about.
“While I’m not entirely sure how things work in Texas, here in New York, a rejection means the matter is closed,” Bruck wrote in a letter to Texas officials.
I imagine Paxton blew a gasket over that. Lmao.
Fugitive Slave Acts all over again.
"State's rights for me, federalism for you."

Poor boy has had a rough week, first his wife says she wants a divorce because of his adultery and now he finds out he's impotent in a different state.
Being a dog fearing christian is tough in this day and age, especially when you're actually a shitbag.
There's absolutely no way in hell that it's just adultery, not when she explicitly says that she can't remain and still hold on to her 'Christian' values. Paxton has done a fuckton of things things that explicitly go against what Jesus taught in the four gospels, and against damn near everything that Paul wrote as well, so it's gotta be more than just extra-marital sex.
Sorry shitstain, other parts of the country actually allow women to have rights.
Go fail at saving some kids from drowning and let the civilized people do their thing.
Sorry, we don't handle verdicts from rogue nations
Not rhetorical question: why don't more people buy and sell abortion pills on the dark web?
Because then it is not regulated. Meaning you'll have scammers selling fake abortion pills, which will do nothing. Or even worse, pills with something else that could get you addicted.
People are assholes, especially in a capitalist system. Regulation is necessary here.
thats what happened to me chews on a handful of abortion pills
as a drug addict let me tell you that black markets are not something to strive for economically
What choice do people have in a fascist theocracy?
Fraud?
Wouldn't the Texas requirement allow New York to challenge all the southern bullshit, like religion in schools, book bans, etc?
Do they want to open that can of worms?
Also, this makes as much sense as North Korea trying to get the US to abide by their laws.
Ken Paxton out here looking like he had a chemical peel.
alcohol and too much sun does that, also caucasian people dont do well under the sun or alcoholism, its the red flushing to the face.
