Desperate abortion foes resort to new tactics while pregnant people find ways to thwart them

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Did our ultraconservative Supreme Court, so out of step with 21st century America, really think that overturning nearly 50 years of legal precedent would end elective abortion in America?

Sure, sure, they returned the issue to the states, the reddest of which immediately banned the procedure, even when a pregnancy results from rape or incest or the fetus has medical issues incompatible with life.

But did the court’s six-justice supermajority, blinded by its own cruelty, fail to realize that overturning Roe vs. Wade would catalyze a new kind of underground railroad, where people with access to medications that end pregnancies would create support networks to connect patients with pills?

How cruel is the court? Justice Amy Coney Barrett suggested that forcing a woman to keep an unwanted pregnancy, undergo labor and delivery, then give the baby up for adoption was a perfectly reasonable alternative to abortion. I’m still not over that one.

1. That remark by Amy really makes my blood boil.

Someone should tell her that the USA has a shameful higher maternal death rate than any other developed nation. Abortion is much safer health wise than enduring a pregnancy and delivery. No, she thinks it’s a breeze for all women. How clueless can you be?

3. -- reminds me of Carlin. "Why, Why, WHY is it that the people who are opposed to abortion,

are people you wouldn't want'ta fuck in the first place?"

2. If she could, Barrett would ban birth control teaching in white schools while demanding black kids..

..got heavy doses of those same teachings about birth control. Maybe even worse!
