Highways are the next antiabortion target. One Texas town is resisting.

A new ordinance, passed in several jurisdictions and under consideration elsewhere, aims to stop people from using local roads to drive someone out of state for an abortion

The parallels between the actions of the #Taliban and the actions of the #GOP in the #USA simply begged to be pointed out... again.

Religious extremism is harmful no matter which religion it's associated with. I do not understand why more people in the USA are not fighting against the #ChristianExtremists that are openly trying to destroy the #freedom-from-religious-oppression the USA is supposed to support.

Do they think the #extremists will never come after them/their loved ones?
