[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Texas is looking at an similar law to Indiana's, after having lost recently. The courts will strike all of these laws down. [b]But it will take time[/b].[/quote]

Yes, like a couple of administrations.  That is too long.

Trial and appellate courts are compelled to follow precedent in accordance with the doctrine of state decisis.  Even if a trial judge goes rogue, it is much more difficult for an appellate panel to uphold any such ruling.  And it will be difficult for SCOTUS to throw out the well-established right to privacy [b]now recognized under several  Constitutional amendments.  [/b]

Which constitutional amendments would those be?
[/quote]

First, Fourth, Fifth, Ninth and Fourteenth.

All SCOTUS needs to do is overturn its prior decision in Roe v. Wade, which falsely determined that unwritten "penumbras" in the amendments you listed provide a right to privacy.

SCOTUS could also easily conclude that the constitution applies to the unborn and that laws allowing them to be murdered are unconstitutional. This would ban abortion in all 50 states.  [/quote]

So I guess you're against all rights not enumerated in the constitution:  so no more gun rights protections against state and local laws; no right to educate your children the way you prefer; no right to even raise your children if the state decides you're not doing it right for any reason and wants to take them away; no right to birth control (married or not); no right to get married; no right to control medical procedures (states and feds can decide when you need medication or surgery for whatever reason) no right to get divorced; no right to freedom from unwarranted searches in your cell phone and computer (since cell phones and computers did not exist at the time the Constitution was drafted); and on and on ...
