This is exactly the kind of abortion-ban-supportive police action we’d been hoping we wouldn’t see.

It is imperative that women seeking healthcare in states other than their own remain vigilant in their travel planning and discreet around communicating about their condition.

Truly scary times. It was difficult to imagine this reality even a year ago.

    I mean, California is supposed to be a supportive state as well. Our governor has been very clear about that, as have our legislators, and the popular vote added the right to abortion into our state constitution. This POS is endangering people despite all that. My point here being that the problem is what police officers are allowed to get away with, even in extremely liberal states like CA and WA. We need to put a stop to it.

      You have a good point. Here in Washington, they could get away with it in more rural counties. But if you go to somewhere like Seattle or Tacoma, it’s not a concern.
