Police dispatcher and part-time patrol officer in Massachusetts shoots his own cruiser in a field, drives it into a tree, and calls it in along with a hoax bomb threat back in September. When he gets found out and is indicted last week, he shoots himself. I really want to know what he was, uh, thinking in September.

Trying to imitate that Chicago cop that tried to frame his own death?

I'm guessing we won't have any confirmation of the suspect's identity until the cops have a chance to clear his residence of any potential explosive devices.

Maybe someone in the building talked him into surrendering, like that one woman who talked down a guy who was going to shoot up a school but nobody knows her name because the media only lionizes killers.

Gun people get so pissed off every time someone mislables an AKsomething as an AKsomethingelse, but no one cares when someone classifies plan B as abortion, or when Carly Fiorina references abortion videos that don't exist.

Abortion is probably going to be severely limited, or de facto outlawed, in my lifetime, and it sucks. I wish I could find a doctor to sterilize me but since I'm under 30 with no kids that ain't happening.

Conservative states are doing lovely things but the Supreme Court is not overturning Roe or Casey. The shithead laws in Texas will be struck down.

The only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is to make it impossible for them to kill themselves with said gun.

Yes, that's why the hardcore churches will preach that abortion is murder so murdering abortion doctors is not a sin.

It's being made increasingly difficult to obtain an abortion in states all over the US, it's not an idiosyncratic Texas thing. Roe might be okay but that clearly doesn't prevent anti-choice legislation, and it's only going to get harder to get an abortion, not easier. It's a constant struggle and not something people who support reproductive rights can afford to get complacent about.

That's what he's talking about. The Texas law is in front of the SCOTUS right now. Though I am not as confident as he about the outcome (though Im admittedly not following it and what I know is hearsay).

The newish bullshit laws are just finally reaching the court. I don't expect it to look much different than Posner's shredding of them.

Exactly that yes. It's great because the 2010 election emboldened them to do it in 2012. The 2014 and the 2015 KY election are going to embolden them even further for 2016.

Although there is a good question of whether the Clinton campaign can get the Obama coalition to vote with the same high level. I think they can since they have most of the OFA organization and are using the same tactics.
