I don’t get the 15 week thing. Roe was 12.
Even after 15 don’t the states decide? Again, Roe was 12 weeks.
93% of abortions in the US take place in the first 13 weeks. Trump is preferable to Biden but the Republicans are basically taking a de-facto Pro-Abortion position without admitting it. We’ll step in and defend a few babies from late-term abortion/infanticide. Seems like basically the Hannity position. He only wants to talk about infanticide. In fairness to the Republicans, the electorate is selfish and even potentially murderous. We failed 52-48 to ban abortion in our Constitution in Kentucky in 2022, and Ohio put it in theirs in 2023 by 57-43. The state of the electorate is pitiful, maybe on the verge of giving the horrible Biden four more years to destroy the country. It seems like the Republicans slowly surrender on everything. Gay Marriage, drug legalization, abortion. I’m waiting for them to start surrendering on gender insanity.
“a stupid and sinful populace”
-Catholic writer Joseph Sobran (1946-2010) on America, 2006
Roe wasn’t 12 weeks. There was a companion bill, Doe vs Bolton, which allowed abortion on demand “if the health of the mother was at stake.” That term included physical, mental, emotional and socio-economic health. As long as a “healthcare professional” signed off on it, you got your abortion up until the delivery date. The only problem was finding someone to perform a third-trimester abortion, which was a very expensive procedure. Even so, 10% of abortions (approximately 100,000) were late term.
