Deplorable -- The Texas Supreme Court Has Driven A Woman Who Needed A Medical Procedure... To Leave The State. Positively... Medieval.


There are no actual medical doctors on the State Supreme Court of Texas. AG Ken Paxton is no MD. Gov. Abbott is no doctor.

And yet, a woman whose own doctor's medical opinion (based on genetic testing -- i.e., real science) has said she is endangering herself, physically and certainly psychologically -- by carrying what will be a still-birth (due to a rare but well-known Trisomy-18 abnormality). . . in Texas, amounts to. . . nothing. At least at the Texas "Supremes".

To say this is. . . barbaric -- by the Court -- is to insult barbarians, everywhere. . . and give them a. . . black eye.

This is much worse -- since those flowing, showy black robes. . . are supposed to mean something. Obviously, they do not (and what of the three whyte women on the court?! Who ARE these people?!).

In any event, here is the latest -- damn.

. . .A Texas woman who had sought a legal medical exemption for an abortion has left the state after the Texas Supreme Court paused a lower court decision that would allow her to have the procedure, lawyers for the Center for Reproductive RIghts said Monday.

State District Judge Maya Guerra Gamble last week had ruled that Kate Cox, a 31-year-old mother of two from Dallas, could terminate her pregnancy. According to court documents, Cox's doctors told her baby suffered from the chromosomal disorder trisomy 18, which usually results in either stillbirth or an early death of an infant.

In response to Gamble's decision, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton warned a Texas medical center that it would face legal consequences if an abortion were performed. . . .


Kudos to Judge Maya Guerra Gamble (you did your duty, faithfully) -- and. . . a pox on all nine "justices" -- depicted at lower right, in my graphic.

Travel well, and travel light, Kate Cox. . . but I'd advise not returning to Texas for a year or so -- as the cretin Paxton will very likely seek to charge you, on your return. You've been plenty brave enough. Now go protect yourself, your partner and your children: go, and live -- in Colorado! Out.
