Since the overturn of Roe vs. Wade, it's gonna be interesting to know where talks on abortion go from here and beyond

The idea some people have in preventing an abortion is to not get pregnant is a lazy way of thinking, as it ignores all the possible reasons a woman might end up needing/getting an abortion. For example, some women experience severe complications during pregnancy that might result in an early termination, they may have been eager to become a mother but shit happened in the process.

Though, It doesn't help that since the overturn of R v W, depending on which state a woman lives in, if she lives in a state where there's a 6 week ban but is in need of an abortion, she may be denied that procedure due fear some medical professionals trained in that field have of going to prison if they perform the procedure or prescribe her an abortion pill. From accounts I've read, being denied help has to be an awful/scary experience that will continue for others in the future. Due to this and more, I honestly think the decision will eventually cause more people to lean more to pro-choice and/or a greater support for women's reproductive health as this effects everyone.

Now red state AGs are demanding the private medical records of women who travel out of state to get an abortion.

Fascism.

@JSul3 Doesn't that violate HIPPA?
I believe it would.

@Adrift We shall see.
This was done in state:
Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) confirmed Tuesday that it turned over transgender patients’ medical records to the Tennessee attorney general as part of an investigation into medical billing—a move that stirred controversy and privacy concerns.

"Medical billing"????? They want to stop any transgender care and arrest the parents.
