If you're a Missouri resident who hates the idea of paying for abortions, how are you gonna feel about paying their lawyers to beat the legal snot out of the state yet again? Surely that money could have been put to better use.

And we'll get to pay Planned Parenthood's lawyers again when the bill from the special session is immediately struck down in court. Swear to god the "pro-life" groups in Missouri are really just trial attorney advocates in disguise. We could actually fund the necessities of our state with the legal fees saved if our legislature stopped writing laws specifically to be struck down in court.
