Hurry up before too many lives are saved

[Harry_Ballzonya]

Don’t like it move else where. Isn’t that what republicans are told

[freedomofpraise]

May God have mercy on us. As a country we are fighting for the right to take a life. Who will speak for the unborn child?

[edgewise]

Literally on the other MSNBC video this morning they were talking about supposedly saving lives... I guess that don't count for babies

[goodoleme]

Now they care about the constitution? Ok.

[basknbark]

Crazy people are driving so far to do what they doing Texas laws are Texas laws if you don’t like them move period move to California they love u there!

[broe]

I have a solution for this. It’s called keeping your legs shut or contraceptive.

[digitaldefection]

Perhaps use your “choice” to be a responsible consenting adult. Abortion should not be used as contraception

[leroyparker]

If it's your body then take some responsibility for it, and use birth control.

[urekmazinooo]

Aw those poor women, life is terrible when they can't slaughter and sacrifice the unborn.

[jeremiah]

Where is the right of abortion written in the constitution?

[bobby-ovqn]

"Follow the Science". Use a rubber.

[cinf]

Imagine if abortion was not an option, people would have to be responsible because of the consequences, 😂 god for bid

[jamestorres]

Aww I feel so bad for these people that can’t control what goes between their legs, and make poor decisions.

[MorbidMind]

Such hardship they must suffer having to terminate their pregnancy before six weeks or cross a state line. Just how many brave reluctant mothers must hazard that journey to cleanse their wombs, and how many more don't survive the pilgrimage?

"Women Suffer Hardship Under Texas Abortion Ban"
Or...you could just use contraception?

[thewindwaker]

Easy for Maddow, she never has to worry about being impregnated

[randysmith]

Here is how the ladies in Texas can repeal that law. Find a comfortable chair. Sit down in it. Cross your legs. Now, stay that way until the law is repealed.

[wesleytrout]

"Women suffering hardship" 😂 welcome to the real world.

[patriotoftruth-vw]

Imagine if these women were so desperate NOT to get pregnant to begin with.
