    Hm…I seem to recall Abbott saying that if the abortion ban passed, “Texas will work tirelessly to make sure that we eliminate all rapists from the streets.”

    Over 26K rapes in 16 months?.. Uh, Texas, WTF?

    For reference, Texas has a population of about 29M, Spain has a population of 47M… and we find 3K rapes in 12 months to be a high enough number to do something about it.

      The Texas government actually hates Texans, but more specifically Texan women.
