<p>I can see why they're getting "ragged" on for that one. HAR HAR</p>
<p> </p>
<p>But where do you think the line should be as far as one that shouldn't be crossed over. When does a fetus become a person?( Aborting a five month old fetus grosses me out.) When does a fetus become a preemie?</p>

<div class="articleContent"><p>“We have beefed up security today,” said Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst, speaking from the floor of the Texas Senate this afternoon. “We will not tolerate any outbursts.”</p>
<p>The state is currently debating SB 1, one of the nation’s toughest proposed bans on abortion. The hearing has created a “<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.nbcdfw.com/news/politics/Texas-Senate-on-Track-to-Pass-Abortion-Restrictions-215218381.html">circus-like atmosphere</a>” at the state capitol, notes NBC News, weeks after Sen. Wendy Davis filibustered against the draconian measure that could shut down virtually all abortion clinics in the state. After holding a second special session, the Texas House, however, approved <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.salon.com/2013/07/11/wendy_davis_abortion_bill_will_pass_but_the_fight_for_reproductive_rights_isnt_over/singleton/">new abortion limits</a> on Wednesday and the bill is back on the table for debate.</p>
<p>Part of the preparations Dewhurst alludes to, however, reportedly include confiscating tampons and sanitary napkins — but <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/09/us/guns-get-a-pass-at-texas-capitol.html?pagewanted=all">not guns</a>:</p>

<p>AUSTIN (<a href="http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/borowitzreport/" target="_blank">The Borowitz Report</a>)—Republican lawmakers in the Texas State Senate are proposing a precedent-setting new bill that would make it illegal for women to live in the state.</p>
<p>Senator Harland Dorrinson, one of the many pro-life lawmakers backing the woman ban, crafted his bill after witnessing Senator Wendy Davis filibuster an anti-abortion bill last month.</p>
<p>“That was our moment to say, ‘Enough is enough,’ ” he said. “This comes down to a choice between life and women, and we choose life.”</p>
<div id="entry-more"><p>Senator Dorrinson said his bill would call for a twenty-foot woman-proof fence to be constructed along the borders of the state.</p>
<p>“Women are great at talking, but not at climbing,” he observed.</p>
<p>But another G.O.P. state senator, Cal Jamson, believes that the total ban on women goes “too far” and is proposing a less draconian bill that would allow some women to remain in the state as guest workers.</p>
<p>“Texas needs women to cook, clean, and cheerlead,” he said. “If they show that they can do those things and stay out of politics, there could be a pathway to citizenship.”</p>
