Quote:Louisiana health officials tried to claim that dentists could treat Planned Parenthood patients
Quote:Louisiana officials argued to a federal judge that dentists, cosmetic surgeons, and nursing home caregivers, among others, were qualified to provide services normally offered at Planned Parenthood clinics, reported.
“It strikes me as extremely odd that you have a dermatologist, an audiologist, a dentist who are billing for family planning services,” US District Court Judge John deGravelles said during a Sept. 2 hearing. “But that is what you’re representing to the court? You’re telling me that they can provide family planning and related services?”

I sometimes think that people in the south have been in the sun too long and the heat has damaged their brains. Of course, some of them are smart enough to stay in the shade and drink enough liquids to stay hydrated, but many of them seem to be brain damaged.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Too much 'holy spirit radiation' frying their brains.

Nah, we actually have AC. AC in the south is as essential for summer as heat is for northerners during winter.
Most southerners are just freaking retarded. It has nothing to do with the weather around them.

I'm from Louisiana. There's more going on than the article mentions.
The 5th Circuit of the Federal Court of Appeals, which oversees Texas and Louisiana, is located in New Orleans, LA. While they tend to be one of the most conservative of the federal circuits (Texas, duh!), they have made a few rulings that specifically slap down Texas for attempts to make abortion hard to attain by changing the standards that allow abortion clinics to operate, such that the smaller and more rural ones could not meet the new standards and had to close. We're not talking cleanliness or any such; we're talking huge volumes of inspections and other expensive and unnecessary procedures that no other type of clinic was forced to endure. The result was that women might have to drive 200-400 miles to attain Planned Parenthood services, effectively cutting off the people most likely to need to those services.
The 5th Circuit was having none of that, and they pulled Texas's leash on it, back in 2013-14, hard. The ruling re-opened some of the clinics, and allowed the two in Louisiana to stay open.
What you're seeing here is Governor Bobby-Jay and his cronies trying to figure out a way around the ruling by claiming that other places can provide the same services, so they can pander more to their base and shut down the two Planned Parenthood clinics.
These are sick, sick people, and this "movement" in the state, including the anti-evolution crowd that got the school standards changed, are why I left Louisiana fourteen years ago and will never go back except to visit my Cajun family. Briefly.
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.

Which of these fine people is going to be helping with an IUD or PAP smear? Because none of those professions seem related to that somehow.

Yeah, I've heard of these schemes. They can't just ban them like they want, so they over regulate the hell out of it when they can. They don't care that this is counter productive to what they're supposedly against. They don't really care about abortion am pregnancy. they just want to control women. Education, condoms, pills, and clinics would solve problems that run rampant in the south. They don't care that abstinence only doesn't work.
