I just thought I should throw this out there given that I was going to go to law school at one point.

Overturning Roe v Wade did not outlaw abortion in the United States. It simply meant that SCOTUS could not rule that abortion was a right that is covered in the constitution. All the rights and responsibilities not covered in the constitution are delegated to the state governments under the 10th amendment.

So in other words, protesting in front of SCOTUS and giving them facts to consider makes zero sense. They have performed their duty. Demonstrations should take place at state capitol buildings now. In all likelihood, though, most states will pass some kind of abortion measure which should end up on the ballots in the near future. In my opinion it needs to be a bipartisan effort in each of the states where the end result is a bill that prohibits abortion as a primary means of contraception but includes provisions for the health of the mother, cases of incest and rape, or where the mother can show that other methods of contraception have failed or using them would result in health complications.

This is not a "war on women", just a court doing what a court is supposed to do. No one is coming for gay marriage next, divorce attorneys make too much money off of it and money is what drives this country forward.

And in 30 states, that's basically the same damn thing, because they were waiting for permission to outlaw it.

Beg to differ. Millions of women now have to go to a different state to get basic health care, and they still run the risk of being prosecuted for murder.

You keep lining up the lies, I'll keep the truth bombs coming.

@LordShadowfire Well honestly I hope you're right. I agree with the other side. Marriage should be about creating children. And noone should go out and have unprotected sex with the notion in mind that they can just get an abortion. Grow up and act right. The 1960s are over and you lost.
