Alabama’s Republican attorney general said in a court filing that he has the right to prosecute people who make travel arrangements for pregnant women to have out-of-state abortions.
In a court filing Monday, attorneys for Attorney General Steve Marshall wrote that providing transportation for women in Alabama to leave the state to get an abortion could amount to a “criminal conspiracy.”
The court filing comes in response to lawsuits against Marshall that was filed in July from two women’s health centers and Yellowhammer Fund, an organization which says it provides “financial and practical support for those who are pregnant and require assistance.” The plaintiffs argue that Marshall violated their constitutional rights by publicly stating that organizations which help pregnant women in Alabama get an abortion out of state could be criminally investigated.
“Alabama can no more regulate out-of-state abortions than another state can deem its laws legalizing abortions to apply to Alabama,” the Yellowhammer Fund lawsuit argues.
I wonder if these people are afraid for their own lives when they do with shit like this?
They are in the in-group.The in-group does not attack the in-group (unless its leopard season and there is political capital to be gained).
The entire concept of modern conservatism is to maintain the order of who is in the in-group and who is in the out-group.
And please keep in mind, the only historically-relevant in/out-groups that I can draw a comparison is guillotiners and guillotined.
The guillotined are maintaining infighting to prevent revolt against their pillaging of our lives and well-being of any potential-guillotiners.
Keep the poor angry, hungry, and fighting so they won’t turn their ire on the rich.
