Roe vs Wade WILL be overturned.

With all due respect...

And this is just my opinion, but Roe vs Wade will NEVER be overturned.

Although, please understand I think it should be. Now that I'm older and wiser, I can understand how a supreme court of the era inflicted a moral ruling on us all without benefit of our own votes.

It's too late now. I'll even admit that back in my day I was a wild-eyed women's libber and believed fervantly in a woman's right to have an abortion.

I never, not in my wildest dreams at the time, thought that living babies, able to live and function on their own, would be pulled from a mother's womb in the ninth month of pregnancy after its brain was pierced by a knitting needle.

At the time there were few birth control options. Again, not in my wildest dreams did I ever believe that someday one would be able to put on a simple patch and have no fear of pregnancy for a month not to mention any bother.

This was an era when women were dying via back alley abortions.

I never, ever thought abortion would become a form of birth control for God's sakes.

Now....no way Roe vs Wade will be overturned. To do so will be seen by the vast American public as a punishment against women.

Imagine the first woman convicted for having an abortion once its made illegal. Every pundit, every talk host, every Democrat, will be screaming and yelling until the American public will have had enough.

Or, imagine this, a 12 year old gets pregnant by her father. She is denied an abortion.

Please, the sound and sight bites over the possibilities stagger my mind.

At the very least abortion should be limited to the first trimester. And government funds should not be used to fund abortion as birth control.

There must be some compromise although hey, there really should be no need for abortion at all.

I'm a very different woman than I was back then.
