What a post-Roe America will look like: Blue states will set themselves up as sanctuary states for abortion seekers.

I don’t believe as many red states will outright ban abortion as left-wing pundits, politicians, and activists suggest. More likely, a handful will enact blanket bans; a majority will permit abortion to some limited extent; and most, if not all, true-blue states will make abortion so permissible that Ralph Northam style post-birth murder will be state sanctioned and applauded.

National abortion-promoting organizations that have the support of millions and billions of Benjamins, will divert those funds and their efforts to providing round-trip transportation to abortion states for women residing in anti-abortion states. Expect a cottage industry of abortion tourism to flourish. The basic no-frills package will include round-trip transportation to an abortion state of your choosing, a three-day stay at a hotel including food and cab fare, and the abortion itself.

Free upgrades might include your choice of mental health counseling, job counseling, or relocation counseling. Extending your stay to accommodate those upgrades will likely be included, at least for a limited time. Imagine choosing among spa packages, and those that include makeovers at the hippest salon, shopping sprees, and maybe even a Broadway show to help abortion travelers destress. Let’s not forget a little CBD chocolate wafer on your hotel pillow each night.

States like California will be able to kill two birds with one stone: encourage abortion seekers to relocate out of red states to make up for the obscene numbers of Californians who have left along with their tax dollars, while providing and promoting the culture of death it seems to love.

Advertising campaigns will attract pro-abortion individuals, especially young women, to states where they can enjoy all the abortion freedom a state like California has to offer, including abortion on demand up to and including after birth, in fully-funded state-run facilities -- no questions asked

“A house divided against itself cannot stand.”

I think it probably can, and maybe it should.

Thanks, that’s a clever suggestion. The problem is that a law allowing private parties to end a person’s life (murder) a child runs afoul of the equal protection clause. If a murder, or the taking another person’s life, is punished by the state in all cases except that of a newborn, then is not that class of newborns denied equal protection under the law? You might argue about when a fetus becomes a “person”, but once born it is unquestionably a “person”
