Roe v Wade struck down

Today’s decision delivers the issue back to the political process, where it always should have been. I am basically pro choice. I also recognize that someone isn’t crazy, or a bigot or a woman hater, if they really feel like aborting a fetus (particularly one that is viable, can feel pain, etc.) is murder or something close to it. It’s a complicated issue. There is going to have to be a compromise that leaves both sides unhappy. And the debate will continue, people will make arguments, mobilize votes. That’s what’s supposed to happen on hotly contested policy questions in a democracy.

Individual health care decisions should never have been a part of the political process. Can you imagine if we needed states to decide if someone should have an appendix removed? Are there states regulating if we should or shouldn’t treat lung cancer? No! Even when we are all born with an appendix (so higher being created that appendix if that’s your belief) or lung cancer from smoking was self inflicted…we don’t look to the politicians and the public to decide IF that person should get the procedure their medical team and they have decided on.

“Individual health decisions” are part of the political process all the time.

Drug policy.
Access to care.
Access to prescriptions.
Right to suicide, assisted or otherwise.
Right to harvest or purchase organs.

On and on and on.

We live in a society that has laws. Some of those laws relate directly to “individual health” and bodily autonomy. And there are many things that as a society we have decided should not be permitted. You can’t shoot a bunch of heroin and buy a homeless woman’s kidney, even in the “privacy” of your own home.

Miscarriage will be investigated.

Getting a "risky" procedure while pregnant like having emergency surgery or even doing amniocentisis would subject the mother to criminal charges if something happens.

Mitch will kill the filibuster in 2023 and pass a federal ban on abortion.

You heard it here (hopefully not 1st, bc if so, you haven't been listening.). Young liberals in this country need to vote, and need to vote smarter. Fall into line behind the most likely to be elected, forget fringe ideology until you have PROVEN that you know how to win lots of elections. We learned a lesson with Hillary, Georgia is showing us some ways to move forward. This is about elections and electoral politics. Let's get our heads out of the stand and to the polling places. The instagram/ you tube generation needs to start voting.

At 15 weeks, the fetus seems like a baby to me. I remember sharing my pregnancy and a picture of my ultrasound at the beginning of my second trimester and it was indeed a baby. When the baby has a head and body, that is a baby. Assuming you have a baby being on this forum.

Iand what about the women who don't know they are pregnant until after 25 weeks!

What about the babies where it's not realized they have a condition not compatible with life until after? I guess they get to be born and suffer in pain .

What about the women who develop health issues after 15 weeks ? To bad for them. They'll.fie but I guess the remaining family can take comfort in a baby.

And what about victims of incest and rape ?


Too bad for them cause you and your DH loved looking at your ultrasound pictures.

There are plenty of college educated professional women who are pro choice and will be happy to take those jobs. They’ll also be taxed less for every dollar they earn.

U mad bro?

I know so so so many highly educated pro-life women.

Until they have an unplanned pregnancy.

What are those UMC Republican women in Oklahoma and Texas going to do when their 17-year old daughter announces that her thug, loser boyfriend just got her pregnant and wants nothing to do with the baby?

From the Texas AG under multiple felony indictments and who had at least one affair with a staffer. Why do I feel the ones who who are celebrating the most have something to prove?

Women can no longer hide the pregnancies they have with their affair partners and they ain't happy. LULZ!

He can help. He can agree to end the filibuster. He’s a stupid POS though so he won’t.

This country is really a collection of many different countries with different cultures. I lived in both very conservative and liberal states and the differences in terms of cultural views are quite big. While I want to be optimistic about this country remaining a strong federal republic, the cultural issues that affect this country today really seem to have binary (for/against) positions. Americans always point to other countries and their divisions and in the process praised the way they have managed to always compromise. It is true up to now this has been the case. Being a federal republic is not easy and I think we are seeing the challenges....

So basically you are saying that the country will become ungovernable. We are there already!

Not pp. But I was speaking to someone recently who ironically fled her homeland to come to the US to n the 90s she said everything that's happening now is what happened in her country before civil war broke out.

Bring it. We can't keep on going like this.

You have no idea what just happened.

Will women who miscarry be suspected of having induced it?
Will women be jailed for something as simple as starting a diet that could have contributed to the miscarriage?
