How does overturning Roe Vs Wade help? If we give this power back to the states wont the majority of them reinstate this policy at the state level.

If Roe v Wade is overturned, it would end this nonsense of abortion being a “fundamental” right found in the constitution, it would end the Federal law against protesting within a certain distance of abortion clinics, it would allow states to inspect abortion clinics in the same way that veterinarian clinics and beauty parlors are inspected, and a whole host of other issues that Roe v Wade has spawned.

Let me try this again how is being for over turning Row V Wade Pro life. Do we really think Pro Choice could not get a few state to pass a Pro Abortion Law. Just one would be all they need.

How can you be Pro life and not be for an amendment.

America never voted on the issue, we were just given a ruling by men in black robes. Sure, California might vote for abortion, but Mississippi wher I live would surely ban it. Also it would take the money machine of the Pro abort crowd from the DNC.

If Roe v. Wade was overturned, it would go back to the states where it was before the decision. Then elected representatives would have to justify their support or non-support for abortion to their constituents. It would put it back in the area of political discourse, where it belongs.

The courts don’t answer to the voters. Representatives do, and in most states most abortions would be outlawed.

No, the “majority” probably won’t.

How many states is abortion outlawed or restricted in now?

ZERO.

How many states would it be restricted in following overturning RvW - MORE THAN ZERO.

Do you understand this math?

Also, the laws would once again be in the hands of elected reps at the state level, or even in the hands of the people themselves in states with initiative in their Constitutions. I think you’d be surprised at the true sentiment out there - the pro-aborts are lying.

Get 3/4 of the states with restrictions, THEN go for the amendment.

This would mean that the focus of the fight would change, too....actually having to change peoples' hearts and minds about this instead of just playing legal games. To me, that's a win.
