   Amid outrage over the Texas abortion law, Hollywood actress   
   Rosanna Arquette boasted Friday that she turned down a new movie   
   role that required filming in the Lone Star State.   
      
   Arquette joined a growing list of Hollywood celebrities who have   
   voiced outrage over Texas’ law, and the Supreme Court’s decision   
   not to block it.   
      
   What did Arquette say?   
   “I’ve just turned down a film I love cause it shoots in Texas,”   
   the 62-year-old actress tweeted. Arquette, however, did not   
   reveal which movie she allegedly “turned down.”   
      
   Arquette later demanded a boycott of any company that does not   
   vocally oppose the Texas abortion law.   
      
   “Boycott all companies based in texas that do not speak out   
   against the despicable draconian evil that is happening there   
   Boycott them all .their tax dollars fuel this s*** so Boycott   
   them Now not one cent to support them no matter what,” she said.   
      
   “The fury and rage we are feeling is powerful ,I love my warrior   
   women who will never let this madness sustain. People who’ve   
   signed off on this draconian barbaric legislation and male   
   driven companies and corporations who continue to fuel it beware   
   your time is gonna come,” Arquette later said.   
      
   What was the reaction?   
   While many praised Arquette’s decision, her comments drew a   
   mountain of mockery and criticism — especially from Texans who   
   expressed satisfaction that Arquette would not be coming to   
   their state.   
      
   “The film will be better without you! And so will Texas!” one   
   person said.   
   “Oh no. What will ever do? How will we survive? Oh no. Please.   
   Stop. We can’t go on,” one person mocked.   
   “How about that: an unexpected benefit of the Texas law, this   
   time for the entire nation,” another person mocked.   
   “One less crazy liberal in Texas. Yippee!!! Maybe we can get the   
   ones that live here to move out of the state as well. That will   
   be a win win,” another person said.   
   “That’s OK. It’ll save you the embarrassment of no one really   
   watching it anyways,” another person said.   
   “How will the film industry survive without you? Especially when   
   your last relevant role was when 8 tracks were still cutting   
   edge,” one person mocked.   
   “Bulls***. No one has offered you a film in twenty years,”   
   another person said.   
   “[W]hew, that was a narrow escape   
   for Texas,” another person   
   said.   
   “That’s OK.   
   Most people didn’t even know you were still around,” one person   
   mocked.   
   “Thank you TEXAS!” one person exclaimed.   
   “The benefits of the abortion restrictions keep rolling in…,”   
   another person mocked.   
   “The new Texas law has unexpected benefits. It even improves the   
   quality of entertainment,” one person reacted.   
   “It’s hilarious the sense of self importance our celebrities   
   have. I mean…. Nobody gives a F**k,” another person said.   
      
   On Saturday, Arquette continued her angry tweeting, comparing   
   Republicans to Taliban terrorists.   
      
   “The Taliban terrorists are in America and have been for some   
   time they just call themselves republicans,” she said. “Soon   
   many Americans will be refugees.”
