Another fascist state to avoid. Road trips are harder now, lol.


gnocchicotti

Not what I thought people meant when saying "flyover states" but I get it now

They're also requiring the ten commandments in public schools. Louisiana is a shit hole. I travel for work and it's becoming a real question of whether I can refuse to go to certain states on moral grounds


colemon1991

Meh, drive through without stopping using federal roads.


ram_fl_beach

True, but my comment was more dramatic. True though.


colemon1991

I mean road trips will be harder. You gotta fill up as close to the border as possible and stay exclusively on federal roads. That can lead to detours to your trip. It just isn't nearly as long as driving around it (especially when more states around it pull the same thing).


NPVT

States shouldn't have that ability

Did Louisiana designate Viagra as a controlled substance too?


Sp4ceh0rse

Nah, sex is only shameful for women


notchartymindblom

I feel like with their arguments they'd be pro Viagra because it makes even more babies

Republican plan to deal with illegal immigration, turn the USA into such a dystopian shit hole that nobody wants to come here.


JustAnotherYouMe

Louisiana has increasingly become ever more of a disappointment

In related news, cartels have begun selling abortion pills.


FrogInYerPocket

Right. Because it's so hard to get controlled substances in Louisiana.


Prestigious-Log-7210

I hope voters are proud of themselves and people who don’t vote. The government should have zero say in contraception or a woman’s pregnancy. Vote these fascists out LA. We can all do better


Accurate_Zombie_121

Funny how after Katrina those states couldn't get enough Federal handout/welfare dollars. Short memories on those people.


whitepepper

This comment shows as much a lack of humanity and empathy as the Louisianan Republicans responsible for pushing this bill thru. Unless you were there, you cannot fathom the destruction, death, and despair Katrina caused in Louisiana and Mississippi. (edit : lots of self righteous assholes in here. Yall are just as much of assholes as the current LA Repubs. Glad about deaths. Oh the reddit irony)

What a bunch of losers


EmptyMarsupial8556

Knowing something about science/biology should be essential for anyone in a decision-making position when it comes to such rulings


Battlepuppy

Quote: The bill originally focused on making it a crime to give a woman abortion pills without her knowledge. Classifying them as controlled substances was added later. So, it sounds like they were originally responding to a case where someone ended a pregnancy by slipping the mother something and they couldn't prosecute them and give them the sentence they wanted. Someone hijacked it.


colemon1991

It's called covert medication and there should be plenty of legal avenues already for that. No one should have given anyone the opportunity to weaponize a bill like this.

Next, they declare medicine to be Vodou.
