Roe V Wade has been overturned.

Did you ever talk about her muff? The accusation has been made.

Not that I recall. Although I may have mentioned the "flappies," but that was coined by someone else (her I think, although I could be wrong).

Cool. I'm pretty sure someone was talking about her muff. I'm also pretty sure it wasn't you. Either way, I'm glad I'm not here during the daytime anymore.

I'm not on here as much as I used to be either.
 
Rejoices? How many insults have you thanked when I'm insulted?

Plenty. But then, I don't pretend to be "neutral," either.

That said, no, my bio mother was not raped. I do appreciate the complement to my adoptive parents. Obviously, I am fortunate to have been adopted by such good people and why I'm so protective of them.
As for my gravitation to "the dark side of the political spectrum," the same could be said about you? No?

Nope.

FWIW, I was lucky I was born healthy to a girl of such a young age. For that, I do have an iron in the fire. But I also believe there are instances that an abortion could be needed. I just don't think it should be used as a form of birth control for those who are irresponsible.

Despite popular forced-birther opinion, abortions because someone was "irresponsible" -- of course you mean the woman, not the man who didn't wear a raincoat -- are uncommon. In fact, surgical abortions are less in number now than when Roe v Wade was first passed, despite population growth in the last 50 years. We can thank sex ed, availability of contraceptives, and pharmaceutical methods for that.

Do you recall the bill which may be passed in MO, where any woman who goes out of state for an abortion will face severe consequences in MO.

Might be impossible to prove. She can go to Connecticut, say she had a miscarriage, and that would be that. If Missouri authorities looked into the matter and discovered Connecticut was the state she had visited they would run into a brick wall investigating what had happened there in the form of new Connecticut law that forbids Connecticut abortion providers from cooperating in out of state investigations into this lawful Connecticut conduct.
 
some states are conception, some are 15 weeks,some like the Left coast upto birth
The state legislatures will make their rules,the people will vote them in and out.
Nothing is frozen like it was under roe

To be clear while it was a Constitutional fabrication,undoing Roe also opens up a can or worms
Why I would have just left it alone -or taken the Roberts approach

B ut the real blame lies with the crappy original decision

I strongly disagree with you there. Both the 4th and 14th amendment are predicated on a right to privacy. So the argument that the Roe decision was unsound because that protection of individual privacy isn’t literally stated in the Constitution just doesn’t hold water. The first time a law is passed that affects the RR’s privacy right the hypocrites in SCOTUS will gut it as they only care about the privacy rights of the RR.

This is also going to create an anti-Catholic backlash as 5 of the 6 Jurist who decided to over turn Roe are Catholic or were raised Catholic. I have already experienced serious discrimination from Catholics where I was raised and though I’ve blown that off as it just being the local Catholics were of relatively recent German immigrants I just blew it off as Germans just being NAZI’s.

Which means I know have utterly no confidence whatsoever that a Catholic will protect my democratic rights and that if they have to choose between my rights and anti democratic authoritarianism they will choose the later and ergo are not worthy of public trust.

the 4th protects your papers and effects. Government needs a search warrant etc.
If you havent noticed we have no privacy rights -drones, algoritims virtually every keystroke can be seen without a warrant

It doesn't mean the states cant regulate abortion.
the states have a vested interest in not aborting a viable fetus

Look I recall the Roe construct. Im that old. I remember everyone was shocked at teh privacy claims
The 14th is equal protection, and is only if play if abortion is a right -it doesn't determine that right being implied

I answered another of your posts on bodily autonomy. I'm a libertarian "my body my choice" is my manta.
Bur we dont have that either.. The rest is more a rant. not going there
 
Yea…that’s exactly what those who opposed civil rights laws and the abolition of slavery said. We all see how that worked out.
slavery was banned by amendment after the civil war. Civil Rights was codifed in 1964. it worked out fine

If you want abortion to be in the same category,then get Congress to act
( which it will never do about anything without an electoral gun at it's collective heads)
 
The left can shuck and jive but the Constitution prevails.

Unenumerated rights apply only to the states. Unenumerated rights are not listed in the Bill of Rights.

States control un-enumerated rights.

The “ right to privacy” is not mentioned in the Constitution

The right to abortion is an un-enumerated right.

Case closed...as the S.C. just did.

The partisan composition of state legislatures refers to which political party holds the majority of seats in the State Senate and State House. Altogether, there are 1,972 state senators and 5,411 state representatives.

The breakdown of chamber control after the November 2021 election is as follows:

Democratic Party 36 chambers
Republican Party 62 chambers[1]
Democratic Party Republican Party One chamber with power sharing between the parties



It appears that lots of states will be revisiting Roe vs. Wade.


Overturning Roe is progress. Same sex marriage, next.
