You realize the right to privacy also was used in Griswold v Connecticut? So you're also saying states can ban contraception. Just horrifying stuff. |
So the right to private medical decisions should only exist when the majority votes for it? That doesn’t sound very pro-choice to me. |
Also to ban criminalizing homosexual activity. If Roe falls then gay rights are on the chopping block too. |
Sorry, hon. You can put words in my mouth (and everyone else's) as much as you want. Learn to read. The Constitution is actually silent on the subject of abortion. States should be able to decide for themselves. |
In other words, you don’t believe women have a right to bodily autonomy. You believe it is okay for a woman to be forced into childbirth if that’s what her state decides. Saying it should be up to the states necessarily means you don’t believe it is a right because you think it would be acceptable for a state to infringe on it. |
See you disagree with 50 years of stare decisis? And you’re still trying to call yourself pro-choice? |
Wow. Even when called out, you double-down and again put words in my mouth. You're not worth conversing with because you have your own agenda. Not interested. Enjoy being that crazy person normal people run from. |
No, it is exactly what you are saying. If something is a right, it can never be left up to the states to pick and choose whether to afford people those rights. The states are not allowed to violate people’s right. So if you believe that states should get to decide whether to ban abortion, you are necessarily saying that women do not have a right to bodily autonomy when it comes to the decision of whether to give birth. |
Exactly. Either it’s a right or it’s not. |
| This is just another example of the two Americas that exist within the United States. When Roe is overturned, about 20 states will ban abortion. The rest won’t. People are so divided on this topic that any sort of reconciliation or compromise (like Roe itself) is impossible. |
Explain the Second Amendment and California. Something is either a right or it isn't. In other words, there are no unlimited rights granted by the Constitution. |
If roe is overturned, we go back to illegal procedures and forcing women to travel to other states to terminate pregnancies. No woman is changing her desicion because of some out of touch conservative old guy sitting on the supreme court or that imposter, Amy Coney Barret. |
When you ban something completely, you are saying it is not a right. Twelve states have trigger laws that would automatically ban all abortions immediately after Roe is overturned. |
Well with the new law people will turn others in. So if you are a wealthy woman in an anti choice state you will not be able to travel to another state to have a procedure. Hell you can go to another country and still be sued. All it takes is one person turning you in. |
Then we Northern VA should strongly consider seceding from the rest of Va |
