re: #247 Killgore Trout

I’ll put on my tinfoil hat. I suspect that they’re going to try to craft a new law that criminalizes killing a fetus/baby while it’s attached to the umbilical chord to attempt to prosecute an abortion doctor.

This part isn’t tinfoil hatty at all. They’re doing it right now in OK (attempting to establish various guidelines that open the door to the prosecution of abortion providers) and it’s done all the time in other states as well. (Cf the frivolous trials that Tiller endured).
Whenever you see laws being enacted to restrict access to abortion, they are always at least as much about discouraging doctors from providing abortions as they are about restricting women’s access to it. The former helps them with their plan for the latter.
