One state
best to leave the state to have a legal abortion
Like many in Northern Ireland do
pop over to Liverpool



[Alabama senate passes a near-total abortion ban with no exceptions for rape or incest
The bill approved by state senators is the strictest anti-abortion measure to be approved since abortion was legalised in the US.]

It's backwards we're going

Not sure if Alabama is doing the same, but the Republicans in Georgia are also making it illegal to go and get one in another state.

It's barbaric and will lead to the deaths of great numbers of women who will be forced to get back street abortions.

Is there really nothing you won't defend if it has Trumps name on it, Arista?

Watching it right now and frankly disgusted.

To try overturn Rowe V Wade would be the ugliest of ugly fights. What is Donny up to?

Sure and
in our Norther Ireland

Wish anti-abortion politicians would just... not get an abortion, instead of doing selfish things like this, and endangering the lives of everyone else. All the Republicans that voted for this cruel law were men, funnily enough :bored:

...31 males in the Senate and 4 females...


...’when God created life inside a woman’s womb..’’....I just can’t believe the words I’m reading...

Disgraceful.

Religion has no place in running a country and creating laws, America is becoming no better that the Middle Eastern countries they condemn

very true
and like in the middle east, religion in america is dominated by hardliners like evangelicals etc

This is The Handmaids Tale becoming reality

No it is not

Nothing like the Horror in that TV series
on Ch4HD

They can go to another state
to get a legal abortion

just wow, so a man can basically do what he wants then :shrug:

Why should they have to do that? and who is punishing the men?

Yes in America they love their bible
in some states

In Georgia, the new law that republican white men are pushing through would result in 99 yrs in prison for a women found guilty of having an abortion.

We have the SAME
Northern Ireland Women
get on a boat to Liverpool


Blame YOUR Bible

That is not quite the same, as it was never legal in NI, this would be like the England making it illegal after it being legal for decades :idc: Why only the woman getting punished, what if the man wants her to abort, what happens to him?

Its is the Same
Both Nations run by the Bible Rules

This is the perfect example of why all religion needs to be abolished

That will never happen
unless there is a WW3

I remember when you used to talk **** about religion, now you are using it to justify things you never would have done in the past.

Bible Belt America is no less backwards than the 'shithole' Islamic countries they enemy. The only difference is a white package with a cross.

The scariest thing about that show is it's not even thay much of a stretch to imagining that kind of thing happening

I'm Irish, we talk like Yoda here :oh:

Vile

Passed by a majority of.... 25 white males. Disgusting.

Crazy that the self proclaimed 'land of the free' like restricting personal freedoms.

I just... I have no words ...

They are disregarding the supreme court's ruling and it's insane. I've never seen anything like it.

A total boycott of Ohio, Georgia and Alabama needs to happen. No tourism, no money from hollywood productions, nothing. Let them bleed money for their barbarity.

crazy

Its a disgusting backwards decision, wtf are they thinking!

Their Bible's Way.
Like in Northern Ireland

Trump has been pandering to the bible belt for votes which has enabled them, and this is the result.

I have no words for this, other than disgraceful.

BIB: I mean there's not really much to boycott in Alabama is there?

The difference here is, Alabama are taking a step backwards where as NI just haven't taken the step forward yet and I'm confident they will. There's a massive difference between the two
