Pack the court.

Give DC and Puerto Rico senate seats too.

Third world country gonna third world country. It will be one of the great days in human history when America is reduced to nothing.

Lol you're just a caricature trying to bait people with these ridiculous statements.

Most abortions occur when it's just a collection of unrecognizable cells. If a pregnancy it going to result in a woman's death, she shouldn't have to be pregnant. If a fetus isn't viable, a woman shouldn't have to endure the trauma of bringing it to term to result in a stillbirth.


If a woman doesn't even want to be pregnant, she shouldn't have to be. Full stop.

And if you think this is going to result in abortions stopping as opposed to just becoming more unsafe, you're a complete idiot.

what a thoroughly broken country. We all knew it was coming, but still, sad day.

100% believe what I say, otherwise what's the point of discussing this here lol. There's a fundamental difference between a miscarriage--natural cause--and the purposeful destruction of a human being.

I'm under no illusion that this landmark decision will stop all abortions like I'm under no illusion that almost all laws restricting something never results in a 100% elimination of the thing it seeks to eliminate. That said, the decision is a step in the right direction.

[devo22]

if you believe the right direction is the 19th century, then yeah, you're well on your way. Congrats.

Yeah. You are completely and utterly wrong about this. If you are a Male and believe this is a good thing then you are a deplorable person as well.

Is Biden just going to blame Trump?

A bunch of things had to happen to get to today.

1. Trump won the 2016 election
2. RBG didn't resign during Obama's term
3. Trump in his 1 term got to replace 3 justices
4. Democratic indecision on their promises and being unable to get Manchin to pass anything.

All this was like drawing to an inside straight.

McConnell deserves a big slice of the credit. Not letting Obama's pick go throguh the senate was an absolute miscarriage of democracy.

Obviously California will be starting "Abortion Tourism". Which....I mean can I just again say #### America? Like....Abortion Tourism, not as some depraved idea from a dystopian novel, but it's actually going to be a thing. Like what the actual ####...

[Northendzone]

have not paid super close attention to this becasue i am not a woman and i don't live in the US, but it strikes me as surprising in terms of why after all these years has this been revisited and changed?

or has it been under attack for quite sometime now

There were more illegal abortions per year in the years prior to Roe vs. Wade than there are now, so the "right direction" to you is more abortions and more women dying? How does that work?

You already lied to the tune of around 20 million in regards to the number of abortions since Roe vs. Wade, so why also lie about your motivation? This doesn't protect human life, it puts it at risk, as more adult women will die trying to access unsafe abortion just as they did before Roe vs. Wade.

Why don't you care about women?

What else needs to be done in order for it to be a step in the right direction?

Religious men telling women when they are and are not allowed to have sex. Certainly not for pleasure. Only when the desired outcome is a baby. Welcome to America, land of the free*
