Sadly, the white male Christian right want women to go back to being submissive and subservient -- pregnant in the summer and bare foot in the winter. If Thomas, Kavanaugh, Alito, Gorsuch, and Roberts were honest, they would admit that the three women on the court should not be judges. As I said earlier, we only have the vote to fight back with and we should vote the Christian Right out on their collective rumps.
Most countries in Europe have abortion laws stricter than the law being challenged at the Supreme Court right now.
Generally abortion bans around 12-13 weeks.

The second amendment prevents this. We saw what happened in Germany when only the police and military had the guns. This will NEVER happen in the United States.
So you're saying liberals need to arm themselves in case the fascist GOP takes over again?
The only thing fascist about the GOP is the one that exists in your mind. And yes every citizen has a right to bear arms, yet they do not have the right to attempt to intimidate a federal judge anymore than they have the right to yell fire in a crowded theatre!
Or to bomb an abortion clinic. But they apparently have the right to harass patients.
If you think people have the right to intimidate members of the court, their families and their children, then certainly you should agree people have the right to intimidate patients. I mean free speech right?
And the reverse is also true, right?
Wrong, intimidating a federal judge to influence a ruling is against federal law. It is also against the law to bomb anything.

The neighbor said that it was overwhelmingly people from outside the area who were organizing the protests, not people from the area -- and specified how it was both a regular occurrence, and organized.
"They are people who come from out of the area. They have a staging point in a parking lot fairly nearby," the source said.
Protesters typically appear two evenings a week, on Wednesdays and Saturdays, and come in the evening at around 7pm -- when many of the local residents are putting their children to bed, a task made difficult when loud protesters are marching up and down the street.
"That's when people are putting their kids to bed, there’s little kids who live on the street. It's a horrific experience," the source said. "It's not great if you have kids of any age, but it's unbelievably stressful and the kids are very upset, the kids have to be sent inside and it’s so loud you can’t put your kids to sleep."
"They picked the exact time and they don't care," they said. "Literally, there's no way on a Wednesday night you can put your kid to bed."
While there are ground rules set by law enforcement, the source said the protesters are loud and intimidating, with chants that warn of riots if they don’t get what they want – and there have been instance of protesters abusing the neighbors as well, they said.
"They have drummers, they have a megaphone, and they chant, they yell all kinds of things… They have told neighbors ‘f**k you, f**k your children, things like that -- and so they're abusive towards the neighbors and intimidating."
"They go in the street. We've been told that because they will move eventually when a car comes down the street, they're not technically blocking the street," they said.
The resident notes that there are noise ordinances that limit things like leaf blowers, and yet those ordinances are apparently not followed by the protesters.
"What we've also been told is that this is ‘behaving within the bounds of the law’ and the only law that could be enforced is the federal law that they're not supposed to protest outside the home of judicial officers, but the federal partners declined to enforce that law," they said.
It’s a very affluent community. They can certainly choose to move to literally any other street.

Merrick Garland should come out - today - and warn of arrest and prosecution for these activists.
I wonder if Kamala Harris will be advocating for people to contribute to this bail fund........
A left-wing group is hosting a "shut down SCOTUS" protest on June 13, with plans to "blockade" the streets surrounding the Supreme Court in light of a potential decision that could overturn Roe v. Wade being released.
The group, ShutDownDC, announced the protest on its website and states that it will begin at 7 a.m. on June 13 at Stanton Park in Washington, D.C.
As part of the "shut down SCOTUS" protest, the group will "blockade" the streets around the Supreme court, according to the website.
"On June 13, one of the Supreme Court’s 2022 decision days, we plan to blockade the streets around the Supreme Court to rise up for the transformative change that our communities need," the website states. "Right now our political system is in crisis. Times of crisis can either be opportunities to break through the inertia and win transformational change or they can be opportunities for the establishment to further entrench the status quo."
According to its website, the group chose June 13 since it is one of the Supreme Court's opinion issuance days.
The protest will consist of smaller "affinity groups" of up to 20 people per group, and each group will have a "jail support liaison who can meet arrested folks" when they are released.
