So one idiot in one state proposes a bill that has no co-signors and no hearing date and that somehow represents not only the other 49 states but also the other 340,000,000 people living here?
You are coming from a .ca instance so I presume you live in Canada...where you have politicians looking to Ban Abortion and make Gay Marriage illegal.
What in the actual fuck is happening in Canada? Jesus Christ what a shit show Canada has become.
Unfortunately, the redcaps are the ones that have an outsized amount of control here, despite their numbers.
Yes, they don't actually represent the 340 million here, but, a whole lot of stupid/stubborn (either because they think "politics" is for other people, or they are extremely low-info, or because they are tuned in, but butthurt that Biden/Kamala didn't give them a pretty, pretty pony [1]) people sat the fuck out and didn't vote for Kamala + straight ticket Democratic, we are stuck with these rightwing assholes acting like they have a mandate when they won on the slimmest of margins.
So people outside the country are right to ask just what the fuck is going on in our country. It's sheer madness right now.
[1] And many of them are even STILL blaming others/Democrats for their own choice, FFS. I'm sure their self-righteous bullshit narrative will be some comfort for them in these trying times. They can tell themselves they "didn't vote for genocide". 🙄 🤦♂️
How’d Roe vs Wade workout for you again? Don’t tell me to watch what Canada does. I do already.
The problem is every single time your shitstain excuse of a cuntry does something, the rest of the world needs to hold its breath to see what level of stupid happens.
We can get safe and effective abortions in this country. Our kids can go to school safely in this country. We have access to universal healthcare for everyone in this country.
Canadas not perfect, but as of today your country just lost its democracy with your rapist leaders executive order to control everything and change the laws seemingly by snapping his fingers and shitting in his diaper.

So please feel free to shit on Canada all you want, but when your cuntry falls you’ll most likely be looking for a place to run to.
Sorry and one more thing: As a Canadian I would welcome you and your family with open arms to this country to make your life better as well should you need a place to escape to.
There's a difference. That fucking loony isn't going to get anywhere in Canada. Shit like this is actually getting passed in the US. Today Trump moved to fire all Biden era prosecutors.
In Canada Today Justin Trudeau made a speech or some shit while the main news focus is potential LPC candidates arguing about the deficit while we nervously watch our southern border.
We used to say that about Trump.
That fucking loony is ALREADY in your Government.
No, it's not. There is literally nowhere in the United States that has passed or even nearly passed legislation requiring the registration of pregnancies.
Which has nothing to do with what we're talking about.
You have your own stupid politicians. Every Nation does. We happen to have a really stupid one in charge of our Federal Government right now but that's a separate matter than some idiot in Missouri.
He's a backbencher from Hellberta who has no power in Parliament.
The bill has hit Missouri's House tho, so it's gone way further than the musings of a Canadian backbencher who spouts his stupid opinions.
But it hasn't even hit the house. This is the American legislative process. Any bill can be introduced and read. It takes a lot to be placed on the calendar, but even then doesn't guarantee any chance at passing. So no, this is literally no further than "the musings of a Canadian backbencher who spouts his stupid opinions".
The public hearing only happened yesterday. There will be more work done on this soon enough.
How's that bird flu?
