So a man in Texas filed legal action against his ex girlfriend
00:03
after she traveled to Colorado to get an abortion.
00:05
So abortion is actually banned in Texas and providers can be punished
00:10
with life in prison.
00:12
But it is legal in Colorado.
00:14
The man says he plans to pursue wrongful death claims against any
00:17
involved in the abortion.
00:18
His lawyer says that the ex-girlfriend engaged in potentially illegal activity and
00:22
fathers of aborted feces can sue for wrongful death.
00:25
Now they don't just want to ban abortion but also ban women
00:30
from traveling to other states to get one.
00:33
I mean, that's,
00:35
that's crazy. That's insane.
00:38
It's her body,
00:39
her choice but again,
00:40
they broke up. I love this before,
00:42
after they're not together.
00:43
I know deport what she did with her body.
00:45
It's like if she didn't want his baby,
00:47
that's all, that's all her to freaking pursue the right actions
00:51
She did it safely.
00:52
That's what the state.
00:52
That's legal. Texas being Texas and the boyfriend being a PreQue
00:56
Machista. He's like,
00:57
no, no, no.
00:58
Hold on. That's my baby.
00:59
You take care of him.
01:00
Well, hold on.
01:01
I mean, I don't know,
01:02
it seems like I don't know.
01:04
It's, yeah, it just feels like he just wants control
01:07
over it.,
01:09
my ear fell out of all this anger.
01:12
So sorry, I went off track a little bit there.
01:13
It's ok. It's ok.
01:15
I understand your frustration.
01:16
Yeah. I mean,
01:17
so it's still legal,
01:18
like, across the country to travel to other states where it
01:20
is legal to get an abortion.
01:21
But some states like Idaho and Tennessee are trying to even stop
01:24
that too. So it's not legal to go to.
01:27
Yeah, they want again the control of all these women's bodies
01:33
I hope we lose that shit because homeboy is tripping.
01:37
Yeah. I mean,
01:37
yeah, I hope so too.
01:38
But let's move on.
