The "I Can't Believe There's No Abortion Thread" Part Deux: Electric Boogaloo

There is a slim possibility Roe could stay and they could uphold the Mississippi ban which is at 15 weeks? I don't think that is what will happen though. And if it does, I think it will trigger a lot of other state laws that are already passed and just waiting for Roe to be overturned to kick in. We'll see.

My only hope for this country right now is that this case ends the GOP's hopes of ever controlling the White House, Senate, and House ever again. But, Democrats have disappointed me before.
 
The most interesting thing I heard today was the abortion clinic's lawyer rightly pointed out to the Court that Mississippi did not argue anything new. Usually when the Supreme Court hears a case there is something "new" to decide. Every argument Mississippi was making was already covered in Roe and Casey.

So, if they do overturn Roe it is my belief, and I think many others that the complete politicization of the Court will be complete. All of your rights will be at the whim of the political process. All precedence which is supposed to be a cornerstone of our Judicial System will be rendered meaningless.

If women still vote Republican after this we should repeal the Nineteenth Amendment.

(I'm sure the GOP will be working on it.)

It's too bad for the GOP that this will lose them the Q vote. I mean, more kids bouncing in and out of the foster and social systems, areas already ripe for abuse and trafficking, that seems like something they'd totally be against, right?

And you know they will twist themselves into knots to justify a national pregnancy registry, but never a national gun registry because the "shall not be infringed" phrase of 2A somehow applies to that.
 
Coming soon to the red states.

Protests are under way across Poland after the death of a 37-year-old woman this week who was refused an abortion, a year since the country introduced one of the most restrictive abortion laws in Europe.

On the streets of Warsaw on Tuesday night, protesters laid wreaths and lanterns in memory of Agnieszka T, who died earlier that day. She was pregnant with twins when one of the foetus’ heartbeat stopped and doctors refused to carry out an abortion. In a statement, her family accused the government of having “blood on its hands”. Further protests are planned in Częstochowa, the city in southern Poland where the mother-of-three was from.

“We continue to protest so that no one else will die,” Marta Lempart, organiser of the protests, told Polish media. “The Polish abortion ban kills. Another person has died because the necessary medical procedure was not carried out on time.” All-Poland Women’s Strike has called on people across the country to picket the offices of the ruling Law and Justice party (PiS) and organise road blockades in the coming days.

Agnieszka was first admitted to the Blessed Virgin Mary hospital in Częstochowa with abdominal pain on 21 December. She is said to have been in the first trimester of a twin pregnancy when she arrived and was in “a good physical and mental shape”, according to her family, who said her condition then deteriorated.

On 21 December the heartbeat of one of the twins stopped and, according to Agnieszka’s family, the doctors refused to remove it, quoting the current abortion legislation. They waited several days until the second foetus also died. A further two days passed before the pregnancy was terminated on 31 December, according to the family.

A priest was then summoned by hospital staff to perform a funeral for the twins, the family said.

The family say that the doctors refused to terminate the pregnancy earlier, citing Poland’s abortion legislation. “Her husband begged the doctors to save his wife, even at the cost of the pregnancy,” Agnieszka’s twin sister, Wioletta Paciepnik, said on Tuesday.

After the termination, Agnieszka was moved from the gynaecological ward and her health continued to deteriorate. Her family suspect that she died of sepsis but the cause of death was not identified in a statement released by the hospital.

Any woman who votes for conservatives is a cretin or a hostage. Any man who does is a misogynist and a pile of rotting garbage.
