This is a good explanation of the legal issues in play. It's particularly interesting that lots of diverse people are worried about other states being able to apply this approach to cancel other constitutional rights.

Abortion isn’t a constitutional right.

I hate abortion. But I fully understand the concern of how letting the mechanisms of this law to stand pose a threat to other rights.

We can argue that abortion is not found in the Constitution. It isn’t, but unfortunately that is not what SCOTUS decided in Roe or Doe. We have to deal with how things are not how we wish they were.

It is a very bad idea to establish a precedent in order to accomplish a good thing when that very same precedent can very well be used to accomplish a bad thing.

The court seems determined to treat the case as a legal process issue, and not discuss abortion at all.

That’s probably because placing 2 Catholics on the SC was a bad idea. They seem intent on going out of their way to try to prove that they are “unbiased” or something. Catholics in name only apparently...
