  1. True, but she realized she misspoke. People may be ignorant, or they may be nervous.

  2. Recognizing a constitutional right is not exactly "judicial fiat." Do you say that in the pro-gun cases? Because the contours of that right were not clear at all until the Heller case. A lot of states had very severe laws.

  4.  @patrick6213  Nonsense that the Second Amendment is "crystal clear." What does the "well-regulated militia" clause mean? (Does it mean the Uvalde shooter had a constitutional right to buy an AR-15 on his 18th birthday? Really?) What do you make of the fact that the "arms" it mentions are technologically nothing like the arms of today, and modern bullets didn't exist in the 18th century at all? An embryo is alive and belongs to our species, as is a zygote, as is human sperm, as are human ova, and life exists as an unbroken chain. None of these facts has anything to do with personhood. A woman may mourn getting her period after trying and failing to conceive for months on end. So may a man mourn along with her. I don't care at all about Democrats, nor do the Democrats care about women. We had a right that we lost. After all the rights we have seen curtailed in this century, especially since COVID, I submit that this was not a good time to lose one more. I don't know what was wrong with "CHOOSE Life." I support both the "choose" and the "life." Persuade women not to choose abortion. Then step back and don't criminalize their decision. They're the ones who have to be pregnant, and I hope you don't propose to police pregnancies as well --- or shut down fertility clinics. (You do know they eventually discard embryos, don't you?)

  5.  @crushinnihilism  If a baby is a life, why should anyone ever be allowed to abort? Including gang rape victims, including the girls Jeffrey Epstein victimized? How can that be "up to the states?" And why should it be? Obviously some states are legalizing homicide this very moment! /s

  6.  @patrick6213  No he didn't have a "right." No Supreme Court case excludes all state regulations. The cases say the opposite. Many regulations are constitutional. Why can't you saw off a shotgun?

  7.  @patrick6213  I never said all arms should be confiscated.

  8.  @crushinnihilism  NO, THE REAL "QUESTION" IS YOU FIX THE EPSTEINS FIRST. Then we'll talk. The most offensive thing of all is that EVERY young woman has spent years of her life in fear of rape, and you're all worried about her deciding about whether to abort an embryo, which is exactly what nearly all elective abortions come to. You find that more of an issue than crimes against women that have been epidemic for generations now? There are between 300 and 400 reported rapes PER DAY in the US, according to the FBI. We can only surmise how many go unreported. 50%? 80%? More? If someone were to ask me whether they should abort, and I was sure they wanted my opinion, I would tell them no. Act like a human and maybe some troubled woman will ask your opinion, and then you can tell her no and have a proper influence in the world, not based on coercive force.

  11.  @crushinnihilism  Sorry, I said nothing about abortions being due to rape, and the truth is, we don't know how many are. Of course you're out as soon as rape is mentioned. That was what I said. Of course you've proved my point and don't know it.

  12.  @MJ13ish  None of you know the first thing about constitutional law and think you do. You need to be asking who misinformed you and why.

  13.  @MJ13ish  So . . . Over 200 pages of opinion, concurrence, and dissent to say "abortion" isn't mentioned in the Constitution? Looks like they just needed to ask you. Or consult CliffsNotes for Constitution 101.
