Just play it off as a serious bill by a southern yahoo to clueless leftist relatives, acquaintances and coworkers, and watch them go ballistic in opposition.
How about an abortion waiting period, abortion safety quiz (and card), and permanent, auditable safety records that are the property of a government agency..?
And no “junk” abortions, which means they all have to cost a fortune.
And no concealed abortions.
You would think that hairy palms and poor eyesight would be punishment enough already!...............
I don’t know if Texas has a debt problem but if so, they just solved it.
which would fine men $100 for masturbating
= = =
Can you pay ahead? Discount for volume?
And how does that compare to a Viagra pill cost?
Silly, petty, myopic and immature.
The law is meant as farce, but it misses the point because democrats always miss the point. I would never attempt to force someone to perform surgery on my body against their will. (1) Being compelled to act against your beliefs is slavery, and I'm not a democrat, so I consider slavery immoral. (2) Out of self-interest, I don't want someone cutting me open if they resent being forced to do so. Whether the morally problematic procedure is vasectomy or abortion, participation is an individual decision that only the doctor/nurse can make for themselves.
As for pretending that Viagra is a political issue, that's equally absurd. Innocent babies don't die from Viagra, just the reverse - sometimes they are born because of it. Also, Viagra is not a medical necessity; I would not be offended at an insurance plan that didn't cover that recreational medication. Car insurance doesn't provide loaner cars when we're on vacation, and I see no reason for medical insurance to cover even the most enjoyable of hobbies.
This may be the most two-faced legislation I’ve ever seen.
Can’t beat it.
Is it a fine or a tax? Justice Roberts, are you lurking, I can see this insanity going all the way to the Supremes given what made it their via Texas already...
Democrats are obsessed with genitalia.
He’s making a strong case for legislatures to only be in session for three days, every other year.
Studies have shown that 93% of men masturbate at least once a month and the other 7% are lying about it.
Love how the Dems characterize moral principles as “moralistic” beliefs.
It’s amazing that I still have any vision left.
Can we just cease having law makers now?
I don’t need any further idiot people telling me what to do and what to not do.
Stupid.
Ping.
Ping...or not.
