2024.05.15 12:23 rusticgorilla Republicans reject abortion exceptions for child rape victims, create abortion registries, and ban possession of abortion medication
“Neither is a drug of abuse or dependence, and that is what the controlled drug schedule is for,” said [emergency room Dr. Jennifer] Avegno of the abortion drugs. “It makes no scientific or medical sense to put these drugs in the same category as Xanax or Valium.”A week later, Republicans on the House Criminal Justice Committee voted 7-4 to reject a bill to add rape and incest exceptions to the state’s total abortion ban. House Bill 164, written by Democratic Rep. Delisha Boyd, would have allowed girls younger than 17 to have abortions if they became pregnant as the result of sexual assault.
Mifepristone is a drug that blocks a hormone called progesterone, which is necessary for a pregnancy to continue. Misoprostol causes uterine contractions, causing the body to expel the pregnancy tissue. Mifepristone is also used to treat Cushing’s disease, a hormonal disorder. Misoprostol is also used to induce labor, manage a miscarriage and in the treatment of ulcers. Neither are addictive. “People do not go around taking them and getting dependent and having bad outcomes because of it,” said Avegno. “It’s like saying your blood pressure medicine or insulin is a drug of abuse.”
“That baby [in the womb] is innocent … We have to hang on to that,” said committee member Rep. Dodie Horton, R-Haughton, who voted against the bill. Rep. Lauren Ventrella, R-Greenwell Spring, also voted against the legislation, saying the proposed law would be difficult to enforce. Teenagers who had consensual sex might feign rape or incest in order to get access to abortion services, she suggested…The Committee also killed three other bills: HB 56, to allow abortions in cases of spontaneous miscarriage or nonviable pregnancy; HB 63, to clarify that the removal of an ectopic pregnancy is not an abortion under state law; HB 293, to add protection for physicians who do not intend to induce abortion by prescribing certain medications.
Dr. Neelima Sukhavasi, a Baton Rouge doctor specializing in obstetrics and gynecology, also implored the lawmakers to approve Boyd’s proposal. She and her colleagues have delivered babies for pregnant teenagers, including mothers as young as 13, since Louisiana’s abortion ban went into effect two years ago. These young pregnant people can experience health complications that affect them for the rest of their lives, Sukhavasi said, and sometimes don’t have the mental capacity to handle the births. “One of these teenagers delivered a baby while clutching a teddy bear,” she told the committee.
“Fathers of aborted fetuses can sue for wrongful death in states with abortion bans, even if the abortion occurs out-of-state,” he wrote. “They can sue anyone who paid for the abortion, anyone who aided or abetted the travel, and anyone involved in the manufacture or distribution of abortion drugs.”Mitchell also represents a different man who pursued a similar claim last year: Marcus Silva engaged Mitchell to sue the friends of his estranged wife for allegedly helping her obtain abortion pills. Evidence later revealed that Silva knew about the plans beforehand and did not intervene, likely intending to use the threat of legal action as a way of forcing his partner to halt divorce proceedings.
Molly Duane, a senior staff attorney with the Center for Reproductive Rights, described Mitchell’s statement and general approach as misleading “fearmongering.”
“People need to understand that it is not a crime to leave Texas or any other state in the country for an abortion,” said Duane, who is working with lawyers from the firm Arnold & Porter to represent the woman and others targeted in the Davis case. “I don’t want people to be intimidated, but they should be outraged and alarmed.” Duane described the woman’s relationship with Davis as “toxic and harmful.”
Monday’s counterclaim illustrates, in painstaking detail, exactly how Silva—aided by Mitchell—allegedly deployed this tactic. It was only after Brittni’s abortion was complete that Silva revealed he knew about the plan and, according to the lawsuit, threatened to turn her in if she didn’t submit to his continued abuse. He even showed the police photographs of messages discussing the possibility of an abortion. “Once I finally got home with the girls he had been drinking and he told me that he knew,” Brittni texted one friend. “He’s using it against me.” In another message, she wrote, “Now he’s saying if I don’t give him my ‘mind body and soul’ until the end of the divorce, which he’s going to drag out, he’s going to make sure I go to jail for doing it.” […]
The counterclaim points out another flaw in his argument: Silva himself “is responsible for the alleged injury for which he seeks to recover.” He “knew that Brittni planned to terminate her alleged pregnancy and acquiesced in accepting Brittni’s actions,” so “it would be unconscionable to permit him to benefit by changing his position now.” His claims, in short, are barred “by unclean hands,” because he effectively entrapped his estranged wife—covertly discovering her plan to terminate the pregnancy, then allowing her to go through with it for the express purpose of blackmailing her into staying with him.
Brief of Hoosier Jews for Choice (and other plaintiffs): As indicated by the declarations of numerous rabbis, Judaism teaches that a fetus becomes a living person only at birth, and prior to that is considered part of the woman’s body, without independent rights. Abortion should occur and is mandated to end a pregnancy that may cause serious consequences to a woman’s mental or physical heath. Judaism also recognizes that physical health risks are not limited to those likely to cause substantial and irreversible impairment of a major bodily function. Judaism stresses the necessity of protecting the physical and mental health of the woman—a life—over the potential for life present in a zygote, embryo, or fetus. Therefore, restrictions that prevent a woman from obtaining an abortion where compelled by Jewish law, which mandates that the woman act to protect her physical or mental health, impose a substantial burden on that person’s religious exercise.Under Indiana’s Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), “a governmental entity may not substantially burden a personʹs exercise of religion,” defined to include “any exercise of religion, whether or not compelled by, or central to, a system of religious belief.” This means that arguments about whether plaintiffs are strictly observant are irrelevant; the law protects sincerely held religious views regardless of whether that view is idiosyncratic or unorthodox. However, even a law that imposes a substantial burden on the exercise of religion can be enforced if it is “the least restrictive means of furthering [a] compelling governmental interest” (the strict scrutiny test).
In lower courts, the State’s compelling interest is not up for debate. In Cheaney v. State, the Indiana Supreme Court held that the State’s interest in protecting unborn children is “valid and compelling” from “the moment of conception.” …A basic understanding of biology supports these holdings. “That human fetuses are human beings is a scientific fact, not a theological claim.” Regardless whether an individual person believes this, “the scientific consensus” is that “[d]evelopment begins at fertilization,” after which the newly created “unicellular zygote divides many times and becomes progressively transformed into a multicellular human being through cell division, migration, growth, and differentiation.” …. Science thus tells us that “[t]he act of performing an induced abortion during any stage of pregnancy, from fertilization up to birth, ends the life of an innocent human being.” The State’s interest in protecting unborn fetal life at any stage from intentional destruction accordingly is nothing less than “compelling.”A panel of the Indiana Court of Appeals—made up of a Republican appointee and two Democratic appointees—unanimously ruled against the state, upholding a lower court’s injunction against the abortion ban as it applies to the plaintiffs. In the process, the court laid out a path for religious freedom challenges to abortion bans in other states and at the federal level.
The trial court found that absent a preliminary injunction, Plaintiffs would be irreparably harmed by the loss of their religious freedoms guaranteed by RFRA. A loss of First Amendment freedoms, which include the right to free exercise of religion, “for even minimal periods of time, unquestionably constitutes irreparable injury.”... Without a preliminary injunction, Plaintiffs will suffer the loss of their right to exercise their sincere religious beliefs by obtaining an abortion when directed by their religion and prohibited by the Abortion Law. They also have shown their sexual and reproductive lives will continue to be restricted absent the injunction and as a result of the Abortion Law.

2024.05.15 09:38 Ishika2337 10 Movies That Can Make Even A Man Cry Like A Toddler!
One can be moved to tears by a lot of movies. But, men are they also determined, strong-bodied and having a firmness of heart? Or are they just more likely to hide their feelings because the society still feels uncomfortable when it comes to “a crying man”? Nonetheless, despite the fact that these ‘macho’ men have been schooled on how to be guarded even though their eyes may get glossy with tears- there exist some films that could stir up strong emotions in them! That is why I present you with 10 such movies that can make a grown man cry like a baby! It is upon you now ladies to gather all the males in your house and let us know which one of them couldn’t hold back his tears. submitted by Ishika2337 to u/Ishika2337 [link] [comments] 1.

The wife leaves him with his young son. This movie shows what real feelings people experience as fathers, husbands or simply human beings. Will Smith’s Chris carries himself throughout his misfortunes while always remaining positive towards his son; one scene shows father and son spending night in a toilet together – this is enough for any tough guy who never cries to melt down like an ice cream cone. 2. Saving Private Ryan https://preview.redd.it/hjvx6rlvlj0d1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=7eb1746eef3289271b20a89f851080f5d5d98932 This war action film made in 1998 features John Miller, an army captain assigned during the World War II to look for Private James Ryan whose three brothers died fighting earlier on. Out of those 8 soldiers sent for search mission – only two returned alive. Meanwhile Ryan was already safe and sound back home. One of the most heartbreaking scenes in this movie is when older Ryan visits Miller’s tombstone and thanks his wife. 3. Armageddon https://preview.redd.it/9zquzi54mj0d1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=ccd2da7f4fc48b27c11a07d789b41eef928db5fd An action-adventure science fiction film starring Bruce Willis as Harry Stamper, an oil driller contacted by NASA team seeking assistance regarding saving the planet from an oncoming asteroid.

The last scene where he kills Old Yeller can make any stout-hearted man cry like little child! 5. Gladiator https://preview.redd.it/82anw0pfmj0d1.png?width=1280&format=png&auto=webp&s=5416ebd8740b180f9aeba8093247f1de6e9fd166 Gladiator is an action adventure movie released in the year 2000 that shows a man who fights off his captors, rises from slavery and becomes a gladiator in order to avenge his family’s death. As an action film it makes you like Maximus, so by the end of this film when he is lying on his deathbed there is no way you won’t cry for losing such a good person even if it is just in the movie! 6. 50/50 https://preview.redd.it/jiaytyermj0d1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=357ac804b20d2fbf67285bc61a5d080823f08a40 It was released as a rom-com in 2011. A radio journalist suddenly gets diagnosed with immobile cancer. Instead of going back into the rat race- he decides to live. It is through fighting against this illness that he meets love and friendship’s true meaning. 7. Field of Dreams https://preview.redd.it/mr4jxzptmj0d1.png?width=1280&format=png&auto=webp&s=750018029afa549b5717ad69616379d92ceb66bc There was a sporting fantasy movie made in 1989 about an Iowa farmer baseball player who sees dreams, visions, and even hears voices telling him to build a baseball field in his backyard.

Toy Story 3 https://preview.redd.it/h6y8tcywmj0d1.png?width=828&format=png&auto=webp&s=a162ee4ba49d7ec1a8e4d2ef1f6e1df4aa991445 Woody and other toys appear in this animation movie series. In this third episode, Woody convinces other playthings that they were not abandoned by Andy but rather they should go back home together since he promised them so. However, things do not always turn out as we want them too-even for toys because even their lives come to an end at some point . The fans of these franchises aren’t heartbroken alone when they see Toys being fed towards an incinerator; every single one of us feels devastated by such scenes. The film illustrates that regardless of how happy our lives may be- we must all say goodbye someday. 9. Good Will Hunting https://preview.redd.it/sxizsge2nj0d1.png?width=705&format=png&auto=webp&s=23c0c92bbfb2b190ec0338678a929daba52a5f4b It’s a romantic drama film made in 1997 and starring Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. The story is about this math prodigy who is dealing with severe emotional and mental health issues, so he seeks the help of psychologist Dr Sean Maguireto recover to his happy mathematical solving self. We all have our daily fights and we carry guilt, sadness, and anger from one day to another. But here when Dr Sean makes him understand that it wasn’t his fault and he doesn’t need to carry some baggage anymore- Will breaks into tears- this is the most touching scene you will ever see because it’s impossible to keep a straight face. 10. Warrior https://preview.redd.it/09obx2m6nj0d1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=ffd8494d1e0f520c5858f04c9f98f14638908a58 Warrior is a sports action movie that was released in 2011 whereby an ex-marine Tommy returns from his mission asking his father to train him for a mixed martial arts tournament. Everything else would be fine if not for one thing: he has to fight against his own brother. This motion picture contains the deepest possible sibling rivalry that hardly any other flick manages to convey as convincingly as “Warrior” does; it has the power to shatter hearts of those who’ve been through these situations in their lives. When are all the men in your household going to have a ‘cry-your-eyes-out party’ now that you have a big assortment of movies that would even make a grown man cry? |

2024.05.15 07:51 NeonIslands86 The Tale of Two Teddys - How I Got Them for FREE
Here’s how I got a Jade and Magenta NF Teddy for FREE! submitted by NeonIslands86 to beaniebabies [link] [comments] I was browsing eBay in bed one night when I came across this bundle (see photo). Looks like your typical bundle of common Beanie Babies, right? That’s what I thought but then I looked closer. Right up front is a 7 spot Lucky. Pretty cool but there’s more to find here. At first I thought that was The End and Valentina up in the left corner but then I noticed the ribbon was white-ish rather than Valentina’s pink ribbon. I felt pretty confident this was a Magenta NF Teddy but wasn’t too sure if the other was Jade or not. I’m a photographer so I zoomed in and processed the image in Lightroom. Sure enough, what looked like a black bear was indeed a green bear with a red ribbon. Jade confirmed. It had a starting bid of $35 or a buy it now price of $50. While I love being cheap, this was too good to pass up and I didn’t want to risk someone else buying it so I paid the $50. All in with shipping and tax the total came out to $64.08, which honestly isn’t a bad price for two NF colored Teddys. You could look at this as $32.04 for each, or roughly $1.56 for each item in the bundle. I kept a few other things from the lot but decided to sell off the rest to try and make back what I spent. It took 73 days but I was able to make back all of my money. Boom! Free Teddys. Keep a sharp eye, my friends and happy hunting! |

2024.05.15 07:38 TheJawz15 Thoughts on the Portrayal of the NCR in the Fallout TV Show
Tl;dr when the NCR are portrayed in the Fallout TV show as being a far cry from their power in Fallout 2 and New Vegas. This is because they were already collapsing and dying a slow death. From hiring people like Fantastic and not being able to vet or produce new scientists and talents, to the loss of essential resources like water that they have to use Lake Mead to get water and power they need, coupled with incompetent leadership and land owners that could easily secede and become warlords over their own domain, it is easy to see why submitted by TheJawz15 to Fallout [link] [comments] When the Fallout television show first came out, I noticed a lot of people complaining and criticizing the portrayal of the New California Republic and how it should not have fallen that far between Fallout New Vegas and the TV show. But I think that in New Vegas, it quite clearly stated that the NCR are on the precipice of collapse and that the play for Vegas is a Hail Mary of a dying empire. There are four instances that point me to the idea that the NCR is weaker than people think. They are: Fantastic, the guy met at Helios One, and the accompanying scientist, Dr. Ignacio Rivas, Chief Hanlon at Camp Golf, General Lee Oliver and Aaron Kimball, and the Brahmin Barons and the NCR economy. These four, in my view, show that the NCR was already starting to fall apart when they tried to make the play for Vegas in Fallout New Vegas. The Smartest Character to Ever Appear in Fallout Let's start with Fantastic and what he does in Helios One. What he does at Helios One is nothing. Despite the caption and official stats, this guy is running with a 3 INT, 10 CHR. He is the epitome of the incompetence within the bureaucracy in the NCR. Through his dialogue, the player will learn that the way he obtained the position he did at Helios One is some NCR officials went door to door asking for scientists and he pulled a wonderful little trick where he said that he had a theoretical degree in physics. This means that there is no vetting of candidates. That they just took a guy off the street and said, "Hey you are going to be in charge of a solar power plant that we used quite a bit of resources to gain from the Brotherhood of Steel." And if that ain't wild, I don't know what is. This also points to a lack of schools and education centers that could make scientists that the NCR can tap into when they need them for problems like this. OSI exists, but doesn't seem to have the resources to do fill the gaps made in the expansion of the NCR. But hiring an incompetent person is not the worst thing in the world most of the time. Every company and government has done it before, and will do it again. But the worst thing is that Fantastic would probably have been caught earlier for his incompetence if it wasn't for Dr. Ignacio. The Man Behind the Fantastic Dr. Ignacio Rivas is a simple man who wants to help everyone. But he is also emblematic of the incompetence and inability of the NCR to audit their own people. Dr. Rivas is a member of the Followers of the Apocalypse, a bunch of good people who in Fallout New Vegas, act as a sort of Red Cross organization. They handle illnesses, addictions, and other types of medical problems along with running education programs as well. But Dr. Rivas is a different type of member, one who is more akin to another member of the Followers of the Apocalypse that siphoned water away from the NCR sharecropper farm. He is acting to keep the NCR from learning about the secret of Helios One, while also making sure that its repairs do not go along with what the NCR wants, but what he wants. He wants the power to go to everyone, the NCR wants it to go to the Strip and Camp McCarran. Dr. Rivas doesn't help Fantastic and the NCR with the power situation, and is probably actively These two people at Helios One shows that the NCR either doesn't care or doesn't have the resources to audit and vet the people they put in these important areas. Even if I side with the NCR, I still don't like this guy The story of General Lee Oliver is one that just kind of reeks of corruption and nepotism. He is essentially the general you don't want to be serving under if you are in the military. He is egotistical, lazy, and just doesn't do well with those below him. When talking to Boone about General Oliver, he mentions that he is kind of distant, only being a signature on his discharge papers. That there was talk that Oliver wouldn't be in that position even if he wasn't buddy-buddy with the president Aaron Kimball. Without even seeing much of him, you know when you first meet him that he is not prepared for any plans that the Legion is going to throw at him. He seems to do no information gathering, no consolidation of resources to deal with the situations at Nipton, Camp New Hope, or anywhere else. He looks like the ineffectual general that people make fun of when talking about real life wars where you wonder how they even got into the position they are in. He is the hint of the level of corruption that is present within the NCR, and that if there are others who are like Oliver in positions of leadership, then it is no wonder that the NCR wasn't able to do any recovery operation in the ruins of Shady Sands. The Man Who Started This Post What made me think about the state of the NCR in the Fallout TV show and how it actually made sense that the NCR wouldn't be able to reclaim Shady Sands after the nuke fell on it and that the only presence they have are remnants led by Moldaver. It was a specific line that he says when you first talk to him. As he looks out over Lake Las Vegas, he mentions how beautiful the sunrise, or sunset I can't remember, is over a lake, and that there are no lakes in California. That they all dried up. This made me think that the resources that the NCR holds is actually very limited and most likely dwindling rapidly. This may also explain the desert look of a lot of California in the TV show, since there are no lakes, rivers, or bodies of water to sustain any agriculture in the area. This one set of lines shows that the NCR is probably desperate for the water and power that Hoover Dam can give and is probably the place that will save and sustain the NCR's empire. He is also a sign of the NCR incompetence that is just rampant throughout the game because they never found out that he was the one that was causing the communications problem unless the player says that they are going to arrest him and then he confesses and commits suicide. Future Warlord This final part is about two things that are connected, the NCR economy and Brahmin Barons. During the NCR-Brotherhood War, the NCR's gold reserve was destroyed in a Brotherhood attack, causing the NCR currency to crash in value. This in turn, caused an economic downturn of the NCR. While this was happening, the Brahmin Barons, like Heck Gunderson pictured here, took advantage of Kimball's expansionist policies to sweep up vast swathes of land for themselves. Now that there was economic instability and the way that people moved away from the NCR dollar back to bottle caps showed that people like Heck Gunderson could very well secede from the NCR and the NCR itself could fall into a state of multiple factions. It is mentioned in the quest Pheeble Will that Gunderson uses raider and warlord type tactics in gaining land that he desires. The Brahmin Barons are the ones in the greatest spot to leave the NCR while they waste resources in the Mojave. The Barons and the economy collapsing caused places like Shady Sands to fall into turmoil that was only exacerbated when the capital was moved. In the Fallout show, we see a library book that has the final check out date in 2276. There is also a chalk board with the very basic history of Shady Sands and how it "fell" in 2277. This fall is probably referring to an economic fall and the public services, like the library and schools, probably became quite limited due to the economic downturn in the NCR. Multiple states in the NCR might have also pulled away causing the NCR to consolidate around a few states like the Hub and Vault City. Which is why when Shady Sands was nuked, the NCR never came back. The only NCR presence there, were the ones that were already there, with no reinforcements or anything else. In the end, New Vegas showed an NCR that was masquerading as a powerful force by being everywhere while doing nothing. They were an empire in their death throes and I believe that through these people we meet and what they say and represent, it shows that if the play for the Mojave doesn't work, then the NCR will collapse. The show may have shown that the NCR has actually collapsed due to the events of New Vegas not going the way of the NCR. The NCR has collapsed under its own weight, and the bear has bled out through a death by a thousand cuts. If you made it this far then thank you very much. I am sorry if this is kind of incoherent and I rambled on too long. Let me know if I got any information wrong. Thank you for coming to my TEDTalk. |
2024.05.15 07:16 Galaxyqueen201 (29f) I’m still a virgin though…
I (29 F) have been single my whole life. I’ve been asked out a couple times irl, but that’s it. The first guy who asked me out I had a crush on but would later find out he was an ass on said date. He didn’t even want to date me he just wanted advice for getting another girl and to trash talk my best friend bc I guess she rejected him (she knew I liked him). The other guy who asked me out gave me the total creeps so I wanted nothing to do with him. So I never went out with him. These were back in high school. Lately I’ve been trying the whole online dating thing and have been kinda talking to this one guy (29 m) who seems cool, but it’s long distance. So I took to an anonymous app to ask for advice. I didn’t get much advice but this one dude, sounded like a dude, started saying I’ll never get married bc I’m a slut. I’m a virgin. I’ve never even kissed a guy or even held hands. I tried to tell him I’m not a slut, but he just kept on. He said I said “I have lines of guys and girls who want me”. I’ve never said that, and if I did have lines of guys wanting me, I probably wouldn’t ask for advice on a long distance relationship. My last reply to this jerk was a facepalm emoji with ice cream as a background bc when I can’t find a background that suits the post I use food. He called me a fat slut and I reported him for bullying. And guys like that wonder why women pick the bear. I’m changing my name on that app. The entire “conversation” is pictured other than the last one that I reported. submitted by Galaxyqueen201 to virgin [link] [comments] |
