It’s not going to be overturned.
Sent back to States?
That is up to God.
The prayer of the righteous availeth much.
It’s not going to be overturned.
The issue will return to the states, and the vast majority of them will leave abortion legal in at least some form.
Some who are dead set on having the "procedure" in lat e trimesters might be "forced" to go to a different state.
In short, the "procedure" will acquire a higher stigma than is currently attached to it, IMHO, and that's a good thing.
Clearly, late term abortion will still remain legal in many states which contain significant "liberal" contingents...
It might be. Trump will need a net three conservative appointments and they will have to be shrewd enough to fly under the confirmation radar. Maybe in five years it could be done.
If it is returned to the states, then hopefully we should no longer have to pay for this atrocity through our federal tax dollars.
The Lord will smile upon America.
“It’s not going to be overturned.”
Agreed, at least in the short term. We may see nibbling around the edges, and that is important, but we will not see a full reversal in the next eight years. The mandate that employers pay for birth control, including methods that induce abortion, is likely to disappear. The lawsuits requiring states to fund Planned Parenthood are likely to disappear. More restrictions on abortion, particularly on medical qualifications for abortionists or after fetal viability, will be permitted. However, the core idea of Roe, that there is some sort of privacy right to early abortion in the Penumbra of the Constitution, is likely to persist until there are multiple decisions laying a foundation to reverse that nonsense decision.
No. I don’t think this is something Trump will be able to do in 4 or even 8 years. The US turned a corner long ago. The more major problem we saw was electing Obama for two terms is that a slim majority are comfortable being supported by the government. And they are comfortable letting the government abort their bad decisions.
More crap from the “Against Trump” peddlers.
2nd Amendment: "We need sensible restrictions, nobody needs an AR-15 to kill a deer."
I don’t see RvW being overturned. It’s far too profitable for ProAbort, Inc. and ProLife, Inc. to fight over it while wringing dollars out of the rubes.
As I’ve noted here for several years now: Infanticide will become illegal in the US precisely one month after the last “clinic” closes it’s doors for lack of business.
That’s an awful lot of writing for something that will probably not happen.
It’s a hypothetical question. But it would be a far less stretch of the constitution to say that the life in the womb is protected (whether States want to or not), than to agree with Roe that the States are prohibited from giving such protection.
Nevertheless, a simple overturn would send it to the States. A bold stretch would (in reverse of judicial activism liberals rely on for culture change) would rule that all laws must favor potential life (again not as big a stretch as Roe).
Amen.
Defund it. Then deal with it at the state level.
and never stop praying
And Trump had no chance of reaching 270..
It won’t be a blood bath. Roe vs. Wade IS a blood bath.
