Isle-
This Supreme Court took away a woman’s Constitutional right.
10th Amendment issue. AND there's a lot of "if's" in indy's conjecture that "if" this all happens, the "result" "will" be this. AND the US is still going through phases where they weren't allowed before. I think (hope) that Florida's law will be overturned. NOT to have Amendment 4 (right to an abortion from conception to full term and during delivery), but to stick to the 15-16 week area, and of course with rape or incest clause.
Those on the right, mostly conservative Christians, got what they wanted; I think now they are seeing what a profound mistake they made and they’re having to do a great deal of backpedaling.
Even conservative Christians and Jews are for "reasonable" laws. Yes, as much as you despise them, and your refusal to negotiate (typical libsheep), about 69% agree with a ban at the 15th-16th week mark.
A May 1-24, 2023, survey asked about the legality of abortion at different stages of pregnancy and found about two-thirds of Americans saying it should be legal in the first trimester (69%), while support drops to 37% for the second trimester and 22% for the third. Majorities oppose legal abortion in the second (55%) and third (70%) trimesters.
What they are appealing to now is the phony "states rights" argument that the slave holding states used to keep slavery legal in their respective state. If it is wrong to violate a woman's bodily autonomy, just as slavery is wrong, it is wrong no matter the state in which the woman lives.
I'm with Lead on this one. It's the constitution. And a primary pillar of it. Like it or not.

I love it when you act like you're going to school me and then inadvertently admit I was right, Odorous. 😂
