To box in a Justice in the majority (Kavanaugh?) who is wavering. I'm looking at you Ginni Thomas.

You're in the minority full stop.

The vast majority of Americans do not believe the government should be making health care decisions for you.


Like I said, I know I'm in the minority on DCUM. And abortion is not a "health care decision," in the vast majority of cases.

Choosing not to give birth, which is statistically more dangerous than having an abortion, is a “health care decision” in every effing case.


Then don't get yourself pregnant. Problem solved.


Then allow access to birth control in ALL forms.


Birth control pills should be sold over the counter. Let women control their future.

Nice try, then they won’t have to be covered by health insurance policies.

Why not? The Court is a joke.

Let the 330 MILLION American people know what these SIX people think.

They just want the handmaids tale to be real.


That decision was right. They allowed community flags, but banned the Christian flag, because it wasn’t inclusive enough. I’m an atheist, btw.

I would genuinely like to hear more about this but you all need to start a new thread.

You do know that abortion will go to the states. It's not being outlawed

Outlawing this will be HR1 and S1 if the GOP wins the House and Senate. Silly to pretend otherwise.

That PP votes 75% Republican but needs to sleep at night, so they lie to themselves. Also, their abortion, in 2004, was a good one, that’s different. Her daughter, well, when she needs an abortion that will be different too.

There should be a 10,000,000 woman march to the supreme court and hang in effigy five misogynist pigs, six if Roberts agrees and cover their houses in Pig blood.

I have never believed in violence but this has changed my mind.

Outrageous to whom?


To a majority of Americans who support access to abortion, that's who.

You think all those people will be outraged? I support legal abortion early prior to certain developments in the nervous system. Despite my belief that early abortions should be legal, I won't be outraged if Roe is overturned

What planet are you on?

The planet that elected Trump and all that he begot.


Exactly! Sorry guys, I’m a liberal dem. Used to be deeply involved in abortion rights. But I’m just sick of it. Y’all didn’t make it happen for Hillary. So this is what happens. Wake the F up. Even if you did vote for Hillary…if you’re white…I Fing guarantee you that you have family that voted for Trump. Get your house in order or STFU.


Yeah this is kind of where I’m at too.

WTF. I am a White woman (surburban! SAHM, too!) and I have NEVER voted for a fascist gooper in my life. You think I can control how my father and uncles voted? After about twelve of us ganged up on them, we got some to abstain from voting; I consider that a win.

+1 My former GOP convention attending delegate dad wrote in Paul Ryan in 2016 and I considered that a victory.


You guys who actually stopped horrifying men from voting for Trump are getting all offended. You did the right thing - good on you!

It was the “get your house in order or STFU” that’s offensive. You think we don’t try? You think it’s actually in our control? There’s a limit to what we can do; 70+ years of propaganda is hard to fix.

That said, f the GOP and anyone who votes for them.


OK, I’m sorry - look I am pissed too (as much as I say I’m over it). But I assure you, most white women aren’t doing nearly enough to try to change hearts and minds in their own families. THink about it - if you can’t convince those people to respect you…that’s pretty bad…

I don’t know how you can be so confident. I’ve thought this so many times over the last 5 years and it never proves to be true.

If this country operated correctly the Democrats would have made bought and paid for justices an issue decades ago.

The Supreme Court has officially become a joke. I, like a gazillion other people on here, went to law school. I loved appellate practice and procedure, participated in moot court competitions all over the country and I loved it. I though a career in appellate law was where I wanted to be. It's kind of sickening to come to the conclusion that people that were held up as models of fairness, intellect, and measured jurisprudence are really just partisan hacks.

The Court should be expanded and heavily reformed.


Another lawyer here and I couldn't agree more. Sickening is right.


SCOTUS is just an unelected and unaccountable right wing religious council. It has been like this for years and everyone who covers the court knows this. No way will SCOTUS be reformed with moderate dems protecting them.

That's because you and none of your loved ones have ever been forced to gestate a pregnancy that was unwanted or that could kill or maim you/your love ones or involved a fetus with defects incompatible with life.
