Summary
An Idaho doctor testified that confusion over the state’s strict abortion bans left a miscarrying patient “passed around like a hot potato” as doctors avoided treating her out of fear of legal consequences.
The 14-week pregnant woman, suffering heavy bleeding and anemia, was denied care during three ER visits before being admitted against hospital rules, miscarrying, and requiring a blood transfusion.
The testimony is part of a lawsuit challenging Idaho’s abortion laws, which ban most abortions with few exceptions, leaving patients in dangerous situations without timely care.
I mean, they’ve already co-opted the Punisher - an anti-cop vigilante - into their iconography, despite being the party of the “thin blue line” and “the party of law and order.” Anything we could hope to create to satirize them would just arouse them without a sense of irony or self awareness.
The boys would disagree. You just make it more and more obvious who the bad guys are, the longer it goes.
