As much as I hate these awful draconian abortion bans, what makes me the angriest is the idea of spying on people and then punishing them for something they did in a different state that was perfectly legal there. That's not how the law is supposed to work. States can make whatever laws they want about what is allowed in their state. They don't get to enforce those laws outside their own borders!

And yet I'll bet the same states would be the first to vociferously defend the idea of states' rights, at the same time that they're trying to violate the rights of other states to determine what's legal within their own borders!
