There have been studies showing that the massive numbers of abortions such as we have now are responsible for a long term reduction in crime. I wonder if this is one cause where the journey is more important than the destination?

Well, since John Kerry and John Edwards think the states ought to be able to determine such personal issues as same-sex marriage, then they ought to be just fine with 30 states banning abortion. :)

John Edwards thinks that roe vs wade is a debate about the best way to get across the Potomac. Sorry for the old joke.

Yep. Roe (I forgot her real name) is now a Christian and on the pro-life side now though.

It's interesting how life is, huh? People change. Policies change. Nations change. The World changes... But in the end, we're all still people, and everyone has their own unique story. I wish there was a way to compile everyons story into a giant book and just read about everything in life. Human life is fascinating. :)

The Center for Reproductive Rights said some states have old laws on the books that would be triggered by the overturning of the landmark Roe v. Wade decision. Others have language in their state constitutions or strongly anti-abortion legislatures that would act quickly if the federal protection for abortion was ended and the issue reverted to the states.

The AP took a press-release by an abortion advocacy group and published it as news without looking for any dissenting opinion. Why am I not surprised?

So this AP "reporter" says 30 states are at "risk." What is truly at risk is a choice of life or death. The unborn have just as much a right to life as representative Slaughter already has. Slaughter may be an appropriate term for the millions who have been denied the chance to live since Roe v. Wade. The choice in the next election is between someone who supports the right to life or one who supports the right to kill the unborn.
