[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Banning abortion is tie result of decades of methodical planning by conservatives. The Supreme Court is solidly conservative and will remain so for a generation. Win or lose at the ballot, conservative court will force conservative policies on the nation, just as the formerly liberal court did in the second half of the 1900s. Democrats politicized the court and now conservatives are beating them at their own game. There is nothing democrats can do about it, except adjust to their new reality. These are the facts.

When did democrats politicize the court?

Dem states should ignore the court, just like red states have continuously done. If that specific gun regulation in NY is not permitted, try another version and let it work it’s way to the courts. Then write a slightly different one, and so on. [/quote]

Substantive due process, roe v wade, interpreting the commerce clause to allow the massive growth of the administrative state, etc. These are all areas where the court gave up on any sort of actual legal analysis and just started issuing political sections with no legitimate justification. Conservatives have been developing originalism as a principled alternative. Liberal justices have no theory of interpretation, just a naked results oriented approach. And now they no longer have the votes. [/quote]

Originalism is the greatest farce I’ve ever seen. There is nothing principled or even historically accurate about it. The framers would have never tolerated the state interfering with their most precious property (that is - their wives and kids) in the way Texas et al have done. If you have no right to keep the state out of the body of your wife, who cares about your house or your papers? Especially when it’s the PAPISTS they fled from in Europe that are doing it?! (England’s bloody religious battles would have been living memory for them). Nope nope nope. [/quote]

Why was abortion illegal at the time then?[/quote]

It wasn’t illegal.  You have been subjected to disinformation.  Laws against abortion in the United States did not get imposed until the mid-19th century. [/quote]

Your head is going to explode when you learn when the Fourteenth Amendment was enacted [/quote]

Hardly.  The pp was asking why abortion was illegal when the constitution was drafted.  [/quote]

That’s part of the Constitution. In fact, it’s the relevant part. [/quote]
