European leaders are expressing pity for American women today. We’re not even a laughing stock anymore as a country, they just pity us for having to live in this shithole country. |
Not at all. First it means the federal government has limited powers, which this decision aligns with. Second it means that laws are enacted by elected representatives, which this decision also aligns with. The people can vote and elect whatever representative to implement whatever implantation they want. It matters none whether I agree or not. |
It costs $10 at a drugstore. |
Hmmm. It used to be that husbands were held not to be capable of rape. If they insisted on sex, and wives didn't yield willingly, no harm or foul -- there was no such thing as "marital rape." Is she specifically saying women can say no this time? Or is this one of those "if you don't want to get pregnant, you can control the intake of sperm by swallowing or backdoor access? How vulgar is this going, actually? |
You must live a very privileged life if you haven't seen all the uneducated residents living with crime and poverty in Blue states. |
Except it does not do that. It vastly expands the power of both the federal and state governments. Rights are the only things that limit government power. By eliminating a right the decision grants more power to the government because now the government can act, either way, whereas before it could not either way. At The decision gives unlimited powers to the govenment on everything except guns, speech and religion. |
Seriously. Brains and wealth will always triumph. The reds might have guns, but that's about all they've got. |
DP. But surely you acknowledge that the social safety nets are stronger in blue states. That's just facts. For example, expansion of Medicaid. Ratios aren't just dependent on individual stories, but are driven by general trends. |
This is nonsensical. You know it’s wrong, don’t you? |
What a barrel of crap. The same zealots advocating for overturning Roe want to use the power of the federal, state and local government to punish women and criminalize reproductive health. It was never about abortion. It is ultimately about control and agency. Control over reproductive rights, contraception and relationships. It’s ultimately people who have an issue with sex. Just look at Alito’s opinion where he draws a parallel between same sex marriage and illicit drug use and prostitution. |
Seriously? There were no state laws regulating abortion before today? |
They’ve got really big pickup trucks too. So cool. |
