From CLAYTOONZ ... "Until women secure rights to control their own bodies in Florida the closest place where abortion is legal is not Georgia, Alabama, or South Carolina. It’s not even the Bahamas. It’s Cuba.

In Cuba, abortion is free and only a crime when it is done for profit, outside of health institutions, by non-medical staff, or against a woman’s will. The infant mortality rate in Cuba is 4.3 per 1000 live births (2015) which is lower than that in the USA, 5.7."

"Eddie Would Go" How to Help the Displaced of Maui

I've re-blogged an editorial cartoon by Clay Jones about the Lahaina, Hawai'i fire and provided a link to an article that lists charitable organizations and links to their donations pages. Please help those displaced by these devastating fires.

If you’re like me, and I know not many people are, but this time, maybe, just maybe, many of us have had a similar response, so if you’re like me, you are horrified by the Maui fires and the utter destruction of Lahaina, Hawai’i by wildfires. Lahaina is a city of 12,000 people. It burned completely to the ground. Razed more thoroughly than Genghis Khan and his might hordes could do in his…

The Week’s Best Cartoons 5/21 by TokyoSand

This week the cartoonists had plenty of material to work with from right-wing conspiracy theories to the temporary shortage of infant formula to the mid-term primaries.  As she always does so well, TokyoSand has culled the cream of the crop for us and I have copied just a few of them here, but be sure to visit Political Charge (link at bottom) for the rest, for there are some real winners there! …

Alabama, where they serve women's rights sunny-side up :: Clay Jones :: @claytoonz

* * * *

The Alabama Supreme Court decision regarding frozen embryos continues to cause chaos, confusion, and fear.

The Alabama Supreme Court ruled this week that a frozen embryo held in storage outside the human body is a “human child” for purposes of a wrongful death statute. Although the opinion deals with a civil lawsuit (not a criminal prosecution), the reasoning could be applied to murder prosecutions by the Alabama Supreme Court. The possibility of civil liability for wrongful death or criminal liability for murder arising out of in vitro fertilization procedures caused the largest IVF facility in Alabama to cease the fertility procedures. See CNN, Days after Alabama’s Supreme Court ruling that frozen embryos are children, one facility pauses IVF treatment.

There are reasons to believe that the rationale in Burdick-Aysenne v. Center for Reproductive Medicine will not be applied to the criminal context, as explained by Ian Millhiser in Vox, The Alabama Supreme Court’s IVF opinion saying embryos are children, explained. Millhiser’s explication of the legal reasoning in Burdick is superb; if you want to dig deep into the legal history and context, Millhiser’s article is the place to start.

Millhiser explains that “Alabama’s criminal homicide law applies only to “an unborn child in utero.” Frozen embryos stored in cryogenic freezers are not “in utero.” Therefore, any reasonable observer would conclude that the handling of frozen embryos stored in cryogenic containers are not “human children in utero.”

The problem is that at least one member of the Alabama Supreme Court invoked religious dogma in setting forth his rationale for joining the majority opinion. Chief Justice Parker wrote a concurring opinion that included the following:

Man's creation in God's image is the basis of the general prohibition on the intentional taking of human life. See Genesis 9:6. [T]the doctrine of the sanctity of life is rooted in the Sixth Commandment: "You shall not murder." Exodus 20:13 Aquinas taught that "it is in no way lawful to slay the innocent" because "we ought to love the nature which God has made, and which is destroyed by slaying him." Calvin explained the reason for the Sixth Commandment this way: "Man is both the image of God and our flesh. Wherefore, if we would not violate the image of God, we must hold the person of man sacred." In summary, the theologically based view of the sanctity of life adopted by the People of Alabama encompasses the following: (1) God made every person in His image; (2) each person therefore has a value that far exceeds the ability of human beings to calculate; and (3) human life cannot be wrongfully destroyed without incurring the wrath of a holy God, who views the destruction of His image as an affront to Himself. [Alabama law] recognizes that this is true of unborn human life no less than it is of all other human life -- that even before birth, all human beings bear the image of God, and their lives cannot be destroyed without effacing his glory.

But the fact that at least one member of the Alabama Supreme Court (the Chief Justice) believes that religious dogma and faith can and should supersede civil law, no reasonable person in Alabama should take comfort in the notion that the criminal laws apply only to “an unborn child in utero.”  

Caution is especially warranted given that Chief Justice Parker recently appeared on the podcast of a QAnon conspiracy theorist and endorsed the so-called “Seven Mountains Mandate a theological approach that calls on Christians to impose fundamentalist values on all aspects of American life.” See Media Matters, Alabama Supreme Court chief justice spreads Christian nationalist rhetoric on QAnon conspiracy theorist's show.

In short, resorting to legal reasoning and precedent may provide little comfort when the Alabama Chief Justice looks not at the state law and constitution but to the Bible and the commentary of Thomas Aquinas and John Calvin when deciding a civil action for damages caused by the destruction of cryogenically frozen embryos.

Alabama’s Supreme Court has inflicted cruelty and anxiety on thousands of couples trying to conceive and tens of thousands of medical professionals assisting them. Joyce Vance lives in Alabama. She posted the following on Wednesday:

Just contemplating my life in a state where frozen embryos have more rights than I do . . . .

Election 2024: Protest Vote in the Primary, not in the General

Just when you thought it was safe to protest vote, Clayton Jones of Claytoonz reminds us of the actual stakes.

There’s been a lot, and when I say a lot, I mean a lot, of pixels burned, ink spilt, clothing rent, and self-righteous smirks smirked over the “uncommitted” or “no preference” protest votes against Biden in the primary, especially in states with large Muslim populations. That’s fine. Protest vote all you want. Be as much of a sanctimonious ass as you wanna be over it as long as you remember and…

And In Last Place ...

Until the release of this year’s Presidential Greatness Project report, Donald Trump was considered by a group of political scientists, historians, and presidential scholars to be the fourth worst president in the nation’s history.  But, with the release of the 2024 report earlier this week, all that changed and he is now officially ranked the very worst president in the history of the United…
