A Texas Cop Used 83k Cameras to hunt an Abortion seeker.

Wednesday, June 18, 2025

After the U.S. Supreme Court's 2022 Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision overturned Roe v. Wade, states were given sweeping authority to ban and even criminalize abortion. In Texas"where the officer who conducted this search is based"abortion is now almost entirely banned. But in Washington and Illinois, where many of the searched Flock cameras are located, abortion remains legal and protected as a fundamental right up to fetal viability.

That's a great use of taxpayer resources ignoring states rights.

I am just against the surveillance state period but this? Wow. I know the city I work in does use LPRs. They are using it as a way to find and track suspects in violent crimes and drug trafficking or so they claim. I don't necessarily disagree with using them in that way as the city has a high crime rate and has forever. The problem is that isn't all they use them for as this EFF article pointed out. Witch Hunts on a suspicion.

I did a binge on John H Bryan's ("The Civil Rights Lawyer") youtube streams recently. I did nothing but lose more respect for the police forces of the US. Honestly, I love listening to Steve Lehto's legal streams as well - kind of the same thing though when it comes to public servants. WTH are our police and officials thinking?

Maybe not in bizarro world - but, that is the desired intent of an abortion.

GED ScottSy is the type of person who refrains from masturbating because every sperm is sacred.

It's also why he so angry all the time, like most incels.

The search was about safety not a killer.

Anti-abortion voices love to argue that they're not trying to control women, they're trying to protect women. Funnily enough this same talking point came up in this case. Sheriff Adam King of Johnson county, Texas, told 404 Media that the woman had self-administered the abortion "and her family was worried that she was going to bleed to death, and we were trying to find her to get her to a hospital." He added: "We weren't trying to block her from leaving the state or whatever to get an abortion. It was about her safety." (emphasis added)

When does a human life start? Now, you will never have to worry about this problem because, you, like 90% of the male liberal posters on this site are a militant homosexual. So, unless 'ass babies' become a real thing, you will never have children (thankfully).
