The article points out that American women would have to go to Canada to get an abortion but that’s it as far as real-world impact.  There is so much more that needs to be figured out.  Please, mainstream media, talk about the *law enforcement* side of this.  Ask Republicans to explain in detail how the new laws will work.  The only way to “ban” something is to make it illegal.  It doesn’t just happen magically.[/quote]

Oh, "that's it?"

Just waltz into a foreign country to have an elective medical procedure done, it's that easy!

Never mind that only 30% of Americans have a valid passport, never mind that it could cost thousands to travel, stay, and have an abortion in Canada, never mind that the people least able to afford this are the ones disproportionately affected by abortion bans!  [/quote]

Don’t forget about fascist legislators who want to give rapists — or viruss addlky anyone else — the right to sue for statutory damages in the event you travelled somewhere to obtain an abortion. A Fugitive Slave Act for women. [/quote]

And the current but growing minority that want to charge women with MURDER for having an abortion. It exists. The Daily did a report on it a few months ago. Those people are terrifying. Used to be a fringe. And while they are still a small number, their numbers are growing. They even interviewed a woman who had an abortion and feels like she should be given a death sentence for her crime. WTF?[/quote]
We’re sliding toward Gilead. It can still be stopped, but it’s going to rely on everyone voting straight ticket Democrat. [/quote]
