They can't get the laws passed soon enough to stop judge shopping completely and this is a supreme example of that.
Even though Bonevac and Hatfield work in Austin, Texas, they filed their lawsuit 486 miles away in Amarillo, Texas. The reason for this is not mysterious: Donald Trump-appointed judge Matthew Kacsmaryk. The right-wing judge has a long and frankly unhinged history of screeching at top volume about the evils of "sexual revolutionaries."
it's so sad. All of the stories you've posted today just make me want to cry. I get so angry for these young women and I start to think bad things should happen to the men that impose these sanctions on them.
I shouldn't think like that but it completely burns me up. My mind goes directly to the scene in Pulp Fiction where Marceulls Wallace is ball gagged and the men tell each other to "go get the gimp". If these cretins would have seen two seconds of their life in that situation, I'm sure their tune would change drastically change.
They're stealing your autonomy and I'm horrified for that. I just hope that some big changes happen in the voting booths this year, for your sanity and mine..
