I don't know what to say, but if people are pissed off about this, they need to look forward and not backward. Looking backward gets you nowhere. Give people here a chance to grieve a little, would you please? There will be plenty of time for looking forward afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasfh Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Here's one that's been sitting in the can waiting for this decision to happen: They do make an interesting case about the criminalization of pregnancy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motown Bombers Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Looking back to 2016 is needed. We must reinforce elections have consequences. Trump only won Michigan by 10k votes. Less than half the people in Detroit voted. This is the consequences of that inaction. It cannot happen again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see ... of course if women in America had any kind of solidarity on the issue there wouldn't be a GOP office holder anywhere in the country, so there's that.

It's not even that there's a lack of solidarity, the majority of the country didn't want this to happen.... it's just that one side of the issue is far more united (and issue driven) than the other. Put another way, there are far more people who vote purely on conservative culture issues than liberal ones. I hate single issue voting as much as the next guy, but that's probably what it takes to actually match or exceed the intensity of the other side of this issue. Sad to say, but it's the reality.

Tiger337 Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 (edited) Kavanaugh is being empathetic. He's thinking of those males who get drunk and then date rape a woman they just met and get her pregnant. He wants them to be able to send the woman to another state to get an abortion.

So…. It’s women’s fault. How are they getting impregnated? As far as I’ve heard, there’s only been one immaculate conception. At this rate, The Handmaid’s Tale novel, however, will need to be moved from the fiction category sooner than expected. That said, I am not ready to prepare our daughters, nieces, granddaughters to accept second class citizenship. I will be fighting for them. As should you.

chasfh Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Women don't really need to go out of state to go to a clinic for a surgical abortion procedure, right? Over half of abortions are by medication, some of which can be mail-ordered, so really, it's about getting a hold of the medication, isn't it?
