Yup, boarder towns in red states are going to start stopping women as they travel through their towns to make sure they aren’t pregnant.

    Because that is already a federal crime.

    Other crimes do rack up more charges when crossing state lines. Because a crime can violate a local law, but then violate federal law by crossing state lines. Bank robbery is already a federal crime.

      You don’t think prosecutors add charges when someone commits a crime? Why do you think Trump is being charged with multiple things?

      I have never heard of the charge of ‘driving to a crime’ being added.

      But feel free to show that driving to a bank robbery is a federal crime. I would like to see that law please.
