Has it even been a year since the ban and 26,000 Texas women are pregnant from being raped since then and that doesn’t count the rapes where they didn’t get pregnant?

Nobody gets arrested for "praying and singing." They must have been committing some actual crime, like trespassing or disturbing the peace or something.

Once again we are discussing some tweet from some random guy, with no link or source to verify what actually happened. This is dumb.

EDIT: Here. They were blocking the clinic. This took 10 seconds to look up.

I'm not arguing that they weren't blocking the clinic. Blocking the clinic should get up to 11 years in prison? Is there any evidence that they were violent? I just don't see the punishment matching the crime.
The FACE Act “prohibits violent, threatening, damaging, and obstructive conduct intended to injure, intimidate, or interfere with the right to seek, obtain or provide reproductive health services,” according to the Department of Justice (DOJ).

Just like the Biden DOJ tried to send Mark Houck away for 11 years.
https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news ... le-charges
“Last year, Mark and his son were praying in front of the PP at 12th and Locust. When one of the escorts began harassing Mark’s son they walked down the street away from the entrance to the building. The escort followed them, and when he continued yelling at Mark’s son, Mark pushed him away,” the couple said, noting that the incident is on video.

According to the Garechts, “that hasn’t stopped Planned Parenthood and the Biden administration. With no prior warning, and in spite of the fact that Mark is represented by an attorney, Biden’s Justice Department sent a fully armed SWAT team into a home full of young children at daybreak to arrest a father for protecting his son.

If he is convicted, Houck could face up to 11 years in prison, three years of supervised release, and a fine of up to $350,000, according to the U.S. attorney’s office.

Seems like some people committed a crime, and they got arrested for that crime. The max sentence of 11 years would be excessive, but they haven't been sentenced to that; no sentence has been issued. What's to talk about?

True, nothing to talk about yet, but we've seen crazy sentencing, so I'm not expecting lenience.

I guess that must make you think you are your own god, or a bigot. Which one?

I’m no god. I am just one of the billions of creatures on planet Earth. At some point I will die and to no longer exist.

Wow. My wife and I have some IVF embryos. It would be nuts if they all had to be used.

Excessive? This coming from someone who believes people should be deported for the crime of being born on the wrong side of a line?

Once again, this is a gross miscarriage of what I believe, and which is wildly false.

This pisses me off. I'll have you know, because you clearly don't, that my wife was born in El Salvador. So obviously, I don't believe that. Wtf is wrong with you guys here?

They're just going to shut down all the fertility clinics in that state because nobody would want the potential legal liability.
