Sadly for those thinking contraception being in danger was a good wedge to drive, it turns out they were quite wrong. Not found anywhere in this poll from two months ago “targeting of contraception by GOP”. Isn’t there something more pressing we can clutch our pearls about?

It was a genuine question. Since it seems you all are anti abortion even in cases of rape and *****, I was wondering how you feel about this. Not sure why @JDHillFan or @Orlando Tim think I am trolling. This month, Idaho state Rep. Brent Crane, Republican chair of the powerful House State Affairs Committee, said he would hold hearings on legislation banning emergency contraceptives and possibly IUDs as well. A Louisiana House committee earlier this month passed a bill saying that “human personhood” begins at the point of fertilization, an interpretation that critics say could potentially be used to outlaw Plan B drugs, IUDs and perhaps other forms of birth control. Wieland, the Missouri state senator, is among those with a wide view of what birth control methods might constitute abortion. He pushed last year for the measure that would have prevented Missouri Medicaid from paying for Plan B and IUDs. “I believe life begins at conception,” Wieland said in an interview with Stateline. “Anything that destroys that life is abortion, it’s not birth control. [I have] no problem with stopping sperm and egg from connecting, but when that does happen, that is life.” https://www.pewtrusts.org/en/research-and-analysis/blogs/stateline/2022/05/19/some-states-already-are-targeting-birth-control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeviF Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Of all the cities impacted by climbing homicide rates since summer 2020, Jackson really stands out. Data is not easily available for every city but Jackson topped any other US city I've seen 2021 data for with 101 homicides per 100,000. I would guess that local prosecutors are powerless to enforce laws as written due to electoral issues. The elected DA having this in his "mission" section doesn't raise my confidence level much: Quote We seek to apply innovative policies that work to end mass incarceration and correct the wrongs of the past. "Innovative policies" like your first murder is free, evidently. The state government certainly has an interest in correcting this, and should do everything in their power to do so. I don't know what Mississippi government regs and laws are but some states can relieve local elected officials of their duties if they've proven to not be cut out for the job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge amounts of people on all sides of every spectrum have given up and dont trust establishment candidates. Its why the GOP chose trump over all those established tools. its how Obama beat Hillary in 2016.

T&C Posted February 28, 2023 Author Share Posted February 28, 2023 One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken.
