Growing up in NY state, I happened to learn that Down’s Syndrome affects 1 in 300. I scratched my head, that statistic seeming way too common compared to what I saw in reality.

Then I moved to GA. Down’s kids...everywhere. Like one in every three hundred.

Then the horror hit me.

If someone is willing to murder an infant, just what do you think they wouldn’t do to you?

Will women become less promiscuous, rely on RU-487, or develop a sudden passion for Lewinskys?
Time will tell.

64 million unborn infants have been killed

There is a connection between open borders, change the culture of the US and Social Security.

By aborting American citizens and allowing illegals from third world nations our culture can not help but change and this has the side benefit of replacing the Social Security Ponzi scheme. Without illegals, unlimited abortion would have resulted in Social Security going broke years before the politicians could grab their graft and flee into a soft retirement.

It will only matter if it signals a return to God and away from godless materialism.

Post-Roe would mean the legality of abortion would fall back to each individual state (which is what it was pre-Roe), and there’s already been a study published about this years ago. Basically, the number of abortions occurring today would not go down due to the overturning of Roe, because the vast number of abortions that occur in the US occur in states where abortion was legal before Roe, and would be legal post-Roe. States like CA and NY, where abortion rates are currently 24% and 33% of all pregnancies, respectively, will have abortion on demand in a post-Roe USA. Whereas states like South Dakota and Mississippi, where abortion rates are currently 4% and 6% of all pregnancies, would likely ban abortion or heavily restrict it.

Thus, the total numbers would not change. And this is what the typical person doesn’t really think about: the issue is not Roe v. Wade and the SCOTUS; the issue is the hearts and minds of American women who don’t have a problem with using abortion as birth control. People want to bring up the “life of the mother” and “rape and incest” exceptions; that’s the thing - they are exceptions and represent a VERY small amount of the 1 in 3 pregnancies that get aborted in California. Think about that...1 in 3! Granting all exceptions that are genuine, that still leaves a vast majority of elective abortions, and these occur because the women simply don’t see the in-utero fetus as a human child, or worse, they might agree that it’s a child, but believe that it’s their prerogative to end the life. Until this kind of thinking changes, the laws DO NOT MATTER.

A: California would require abortion for all pregnancies, and North Dakota would ban it.

Realistically, if Roe were overturned, the issue would go back to the states.

Liberal states such as New York and California will enact their liberalized abortion laws to permit abortion on demand. Other states will enact various restrictions.

Even if Roe were overturned, there will still be abortions happening in America every day.

It will be easier to change laws or Supreme Court decisions, than it is to change people’s hearts and minds on this issue.

Simply reversing Roe returns it to the states.

Question is once (if) reversed, will the inverse of Roe Halle. Where the Supreme Court will declare abortion to be unconstitutional?

This would require a challenge to a state where it is legal going all the way to the Supreme Court and the court striking the law down.

Or it would require a federal law banning the procedure nationally which I doubt sadly our legislature would ever pass.. but if they did, then would have to survive appeals to the Supreme Court and win which it may or may not.

The latter path would be the proper way... the prior path would be just flipping the script on 1973 overreach.

The courts should NOT be a replacement for the legislative process.
