Kate Cox, soon-to-be abortion-haverKate Cox has been through enough this week. Now, she’s just heading on out of there and getting her abortion somewhere else (and, we are certain, with the help of literally no one else — should any Texas vigilantes get dollar signs in their eyes). This is another tragic aspect of the state’s vigilante laws, that allows nosy creeps and abusers to file suit against anyone who assists someone else getting an abortion in any way. Although she is getting her abortion now, Reuters reports that she will not be dropping her lawsuit against the state. We are glad that she is getting the medical care she needs and only wish that everyone in Texas who needed or wanted an abortion were also able to get one.
