LOL! Mate, seriously?!?!? If you can't figure out how to buy a box of condoms or you think someone is actually stopping you from buying a box of condoms, I would hate to see you try and actually put one on. I'm guessing your shoe closet is full of slip on loafers - because I suspect them shoe laces are much too complex for you to figure out eh? lol!
Oh you figure all the women should just put their trust in that, cause condoms are 100% effective and used 100% of the time, right? And there's no history of religious clowns trying to outlaw condoms in stores too, along with all the other kinds. 🙄
Mate, this ain't the 1960's, people can freely buy contraceptives. Weather it be a box of condoms, the pill, female condoms, the sponge, etc.etc.etc. There is no massive conspiracy to stop anyone from going to a gas station/7-11/Walgreens/etc. to buy condoms or go to your doctor/a clinic to get a prescription for birth control or whatever from of contraceptive you prefer. Do you truly believe that pretty much any man or woman in any city/town/community (big or small) CANNOT get access to their preferred choice of contraceptives? I mean sure, maybe Shoppers is out of stock of your favourite brand of condom, but seriously, you literally have to live under a rock to not be able to get your hands on your preferred choice of contraceptives in the 21st century.
What a fucked-up, shitshow the Evangelical States of America have become.

Don't get your panties in a bunch; these types of proposals rarely "make it into the books." They are easily challenged because a) there's a mens rea issue and (more importantly) b) it's pretty well established in common law that a fetus does not constitute a person/a human. Although I am unaware of any US States' laws that recognize a fetus as a "person" or a "human" - US law is established on historical common law. Canada in particular (via a Supreme Court ruling in, I think it was Daigle v. Tremblay) established that a fetus has no legal standing in Canada.
Those laws might not stand a good legal challenge but it takes quite often a few years to get through the court system . Meanwhile many women will be caught in the prosecutional system which will come to a very high monetary and emotional cost for them. Not that we should care as men .. right ?
Luckily it seems that all types of contraception are a 100% effective ... Isn't it ? Or you seem to think if I recall a previous post of yours mentioning contraception as a solution to the abortion problem ....in an American society that has been so reluctant to educate their youth in that matter . Not that Canada does much better in that matter actually.
A number of states have effectively banned abortion by making it illegal after 6-15 weeks, and Texas now permits bounty hunters to go after women, doctors and anyone assisting them, for a minimum $10,000 payout without requiring any sort of proof. A number of states are working on bills that will criminalize traveling out of state for an abortion.
But yeah, these bills rarely are signed into law in the stupid states. Except they are.

Those Republican zealots are so devious.
Don't regulate the banking system, don't regulate the environment, don't regulate business or people's behavior for the common good ....but let's regulate women's bodies . The lack of decency is mind boggling !
