Appeals Court Blocks Florida Minor From Getting An Abortion

A Florida appeals court affirmed Monday a lower judge’s ruling that a 16-year-old minor in the state cannot get an abortion, based on a law requiring parental consent for minors, forcing the teenager to carry her pregnancy to term as such consent laws come under increasing scrutiny in the wake of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade.
A three-judge panel at the First District Court of Appeals in Florida sided with a circuit court judge in Escambia County, who ruled that the plaintiff “had not established by clear and convincing evidence that she was sufficiently mature to decide whether to terminate her pregnancy,” as Florida law requires.
The state’s parental consent law, enacted in 2020, lets minors seek a “judicial bypass” and get court permission to get an abortion if they can’t get consent from a parent or guardian.
The judges said their decision was based on the fact that Florida law only allows them to overturn the lower court’s ruling if there was any “abuse or discretion”—rather than because of any actual evidence in the case—and the circuit judge’s ruling was “neither unclear nor lacking.”
The plaintiff, who was ten weeks pregnant and identified only as Jane Doe 22-B, told the court “she ‘is not ready to have a baby,’ she doesn’t have a job, she is ‘still in school,’ and the father is unable to assist her,” First Circuit Judge Scott Makar noted in his opinion concurring and dissenting in part with the court’s ruling.

1.) House Republicans All Vote Against Neo-Nazi Probe of Military, Police
BY EWAN PALMER ON 7/14/22 AT 6:28 AM EDT
“The House has approved an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act to compel government officials to prepare a report on combating white supremacists and neo-Nazi activity in the police and military, despite every Republican voting against the measure”
“The amendment, sponsored by Rep. Brad Schneider, was passed in a 218-208 party-line vote on Wednesday.
All 208 votes against the amendment came from House Republicans, one of whom described it as "Orwellian."
The "Schneider Amendment" called for the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Secretary of Defense to publish a report that sets out ways to combat white supremacist and neo-Nazi activity in the uniformed services and law enforcement agencies "not later than 180 days after enactment and every 6 months thereafter."

The amendment still passed, but the vote shows how a genuine national security threat has been turned into partisan football.

The Long History of the Anti-Abortion Movement’s Links to White Supremacists
Racism and xenophobia have been woven into the anti-abortion movement for decades, despite the careful curation of its public image.
FEBRUARY 3, 2020
“The anti-abortion movement in the United States has long been complicit with white supremacy. In recent decades, the movement mainstream has been careful to protect its public image by distancing itself from overt white nationalists in its ranks. Last year, anti-abortion leader Kristen Hatten was ousted from her position as vice president of the anti-choice group New Wave Feminists after identifying as an “ethnonationalist” and sharing white supremacist alt-right content. In 2018, when neo-Nazis from the Traditionalist Worker Party (TWP) sought to join the local March for Life rally organized by Tennessee Right to Life, the anti-abortion organization rejected TWP’s involvement. (The organization’s statement, however, engaged in the same false equivalency between left and right that Trump used in the wake of fatal white supremacist violence at Charlottesville. “Our organization’s march has a single agenda to support the rights of mothers and the unborn, and we don’t agree with the violent agenda of white supremacists or Antifa,” the group wrote on its Facebook page.)”
“As sociologists Nicola Beisel and Tamara Kay wrote with regards to the criminalization of abortion in the late 19th century, “While laws regulating abortion would ultimately affect all women, physicians argued that middle-class, Anglo-Saxon married women were those obtaining abortions, and that their use of abortion to curtail childbearing threatened the Anglo-Saxon race.”

2.) ENDING THE VIOLENCE: Applying the Ku Klux Klan Act, RICO, and FACE to the Abortion Controversy
“In March of 1993, David Gunn, a doctor who provided abortion servic- es in Pensacola, Florida, was shot and killed.' The gunman was a member of Operation Rescue.2 Recently, doctors who legally perform abortions have felt so threatened that they hire body guards to protect them and to help them gain access to their places of work.' Even these drastic measures are some- times futile.
In July of 1994, Dr. John Britton and his volunteer body guard, James Barrett, were both shot and killed4 outside of an abortion clinic.' Once again, the gunman was a member of Operation Rescue.6 From 1977 to April
1993, more than 1,000 acts of violence against abortion providers were reported in the United States.'
These acts included at least 36 bombings, 81 arsons, 131 death threats, 84 assaults, two kidnappings, one murder, and 327 clinic invasions! In addition, over 6,000 clinic blockades and other disrup- tions have been reported since 1977.”
