A Tennessee Republican hopes to establish an “abortion trafficking” felony for adults who help pregnant minors get an out-of-state abortion without parental permission, an effort reproductive health advocates argue will run afoul of constitutional rights such as interstate travel.

Rep. Jason Zachary, R-Knoxville, filed House Bill 1895 on Monday. The legislation would establish a new Class C felony, which could carry three to 15 years in prison, for an adult that “recruits, harbors or transports” a pregnant minor for the purposes of receiving an out-of-state abortion or for getting abortion medication.

    You should learn to read, then, like those poor confederates. You’d be better off with some literacy.

        Literally linked and quoted above, and you’re too fucking stupid to read. Many were manipulated or were not fighting over slavery specifically. That doesn’t magically make the conflict not about slavery, it’s just context that goes to explain how the south is so brainwashed about it. It’s true, NOT because what the south believes today, but because of what literally happened.

        Again, it’s just nuanced context. It’s not a claim about the war not revolving around slavery. Fucking learn to read.

            Wrong on both accounts. Hilarious. Keep assuming things. It really proves how well you think through things.

              That’s rich. Seems like you’re all over this thread whiteknighting for op(not suspicious at all). And you still haven’t shown where it explicitly states that they were lied to.
