how many of us are secretly conflicted about this ruling?

Actually, that turned out better than I thought. I personally would add the NOT, but obviously the Christian nationalist fascists would leave it out.

I'm 0% efficacy poster above . .

I am conflicted totally. I had an abortion, but I do believe it was a grave sin.

I think women should be free to choose the sins they choose with their body, whether it's fornication, other sexual sin, being drunk, having an abortion. We don't criminalize lots of sins, so why do states criminalize this one? We don't criminalize work on the sabbath. We don't criminalize dishonoring parents. Other sins.

I'm also conflicted because I do believe that without upholding our constitutional form of government, our country will fail for our children, grandchildren. If abortion is constitutionally a state law matter, then I do believe we must respect that, and if we don't like it, work within our democratic system for change at the state law level, or move if you don't like your state laws. We have 50 states, there is a lot of diversity and something for everybody.

I’m voting republican to watch all of you seethe. It amuses my dark heart.

Seriously, unless medically necessary abortion after 15 weeks should be banned. Only selfish women with no empathy would choose to abort after that.

I’m appalled at how far society has sunk. Evil evil people.

When I looked up the numbers, 93% of abortions are in the first 14 weeks. Not much will change for most people. I am perfectly fine teaching DC that birth control is most important and would prefer they use pill AND a condom. I would both rally and vote to maintain first trimester abortion and 100% for abortion pill and contraceptives. Would also vote to push for more support requirements for men/boys.

Still is not first on my list of voting issues.Though watching to make sure it is not a slippery slope. I will say as a mid-50 y.o. women, I never thought I would see this day. i also can’t understand how some state have such restrictive laws.


How do you figure? Now many women will have to travel quite far and at great expense to access abortion. Some won't be able to for either logistical or financial reasons. A lot is going to change for a lot of people. You're blind if you can't see this.

It bothers me that the pro choice people always bitterly resisted any compromises on abortion. I remember how they defeated bans on late term abortion. But by refusing any compromise they also gave the pro life people a massive impetus to defeat abortion rights entirely.

Most people want some level of abortion rights and most also want restrictions on abortion, which shows that the majority in the US wants the European style abortion approach. I actually privately think that by moving abortion to the legislature it makes it easier in the long run to get the European compromise consensus here in the US.

Ultimately, because abortion is a hugely moral issue for so many people, codifying it as a constitutional right on dubious grounds like Roe did was never going to work out well. But pushing it back to the states does allow us to have the national conversation over abortion and that it is a very complicated subject that does not deserve the all or nothing attitudes of both the extreme pro choice and pro life people, and that can be worthwhile.


How about the pro-birthers? They aren't willing to bend at all. For example, first trimester, rape or incest, life of the mother. If you are pro-life why does the woman's life not matter? At least pro-choice people aren't forcing women to have abortions. My cousin had to have a late abortion. Her baby had no brain! And they will try to have a constitutional ban for all states, ban contraceptives.

If I have an abortion it does not affect your life at all. But, if you ban it than it affects the lives of so many women and their families.

The power of creation was given only and only women! This makes women and even some women very very angry. Lololololol

A lot of people don’t like that we women were giving the full power to decide who is born and who is not.


This type of power given to women and only women gets people up in a frenzy. How dare women get to decide who’s bloodline they choose to decide??!?

If prolife people really valued life as much as they say they do then why does the world look and operate the way it does???

How can pro life people really believe life is a blessing in the current context of the world???

They only want to control what life produces and life force as well.

Sorry, I personally would never carry the bloodline of a poor or mentally ill man. Every bloodline does not need to be continued.





Breukelen Bleu lives.

You lost. Cope. Deal with it. And you are going to see many more losses at the court and in state legislatures soon on many issues. The Supreme Court will be conservative for a generation.

+1 part of me thinks - you get what you vote for. If the majority of the voters in some states want to make this illegal, then so be it.

Then there’s a part of me that thinks this is an absolute human right.

I tried to talk this out with my two bffs, one of whom actually voted for T the first time around, and both were adamant that it’s a basic human right the government has no right to control.

I don't see how one can be mixed about this. I'm furious that some women and families are going to suffer as a result of this decision.

Women and their families have the right to vote and move to a different state.

Gosh where were you giving this sage and measured advice to the January 6th losers?

This ruling only affects poor women. Congratulations on making their lives harder?

Hopefully you get to watch your own daughter or granddaughter die from this decision one day. It’s the only way for people like you to see the point. And even then you’ll still probably blame Democrats.
