If anyone expects Roe vs. Wade will be suddenly overturned on a 5-4 vote, they are going to be disappointed.
That is not how it is going to happen. Conservatives are not going to ignore precedent.
It is very possible that the freedom of states to regulate abortion can be gradually restored. Eventually, better science can replace Blackmun’s junk science of trimesters. Maybe states will be able to prohibit abortion after the point where the fetus is viable, or the point where it can be demonstrated that the fetus can feel pain,both of which are moving closer and closer to the moment of conception.
We did not become a people that it kills its unborn in a s single moment, and we will not expiate this practice in a single moment. It is a long struggle and the tide is only slowly beginning to turn.
This is absolutely correct. Even if Kav or Roberts is personally pro-life, they will not have the courage to be the 5th vote to overturn this. Can you imagine the outcry of the Left if such a case were being argued and decided in the Supreme Court? That will probably bring about actual Civil War, and Roberts will not be the one to decide that. He will almost certainly vote to not overturn, even if he is personally pro-life, as it will bring about actual Civil War. Only if there are 6-7 conservatives on the Supreme Court should such a case be brought. That would be our only chance. We cannot risk it before that.
