It is not the law that Roe v. Wade generated that is at risk, but the absolute right to abortion. This was contained in Sarah Weddington's brief but rejected by the Court in 1972. Subsequently, however, the radical view prevailed, and this is what we are stuck with now: the most radical abortion law in the Western world but in a country that is very uneasy with it. The comparison with the United States in 1861 and its attitude toward slavery at that time is very close.
