Roe Overturned

[FLS]

As with New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, most people won't see any practical changes unless they live in a state with restrictions.

......and let the riots begin.


Bet me.

First they have to agree on which costumes to wear this time.

 I've not been following this very much, but from what I've heard this is just basically tossing the decision whether to allow abortions or not to the individual states?

That is all it is but will be the next excuse for floyd style peaceful protest riots,  burning and looting ...

And this administration will just add gas to those fires sadly

Yes. 

It's not a hot button issue for me, but I suspect that despite their talk, this is NOT a hot potato the states really wanted in their lap. 

If the R's ever had a hope of recovering the professional suburbs after the Orange Pig-God was gone, that's over now. The mobile home, snake-handling, hayseeds will love it though.  I suspect it will prove a pyric victory.  Dems should send Alito flowers and a box of chocolate.

Unless I misread the ruling, there is nothing stopping Congress from passing laws regulating abortion. The ruling simply acknowledges that Roe V Wade was judicial overreach and returns the power to the legislature. Now it is up to the States and / or Federal legislatures to makes laws regarding abortion which is essentially returning the right of the decision to the Citizens.

It was federal judicial overreach so now it's back under state jurisdiction. No federal law can compel a state to allow abortions.

Interesting that during their appointment deliberations before congress, those same judges were 'all about the sanctity of 'Roe vs Wade' only to LIE about their intent. As a Lincoln Republican, the current GOP has lost the plot.

And ya'll forgot why Roe vs Wade came into play BECAUSE the states weren't protecting women's right to abortion. To say "well, now it's up to the individual states..." is why we had Roe vs Wade. FFS.

How dare you present clarity. That was never the intention of this thread.

Just because you think it is a Constitutional right does not make it so.  There is nothing preventing Congress from passing laws affecting abortion is there?

Regardless of popularity the constitution doesn't allow it.  Abortion isn't banned. Most states just have reasonable restrictions when you don't want your baby born.

I've never been rabid on either side of this issue.  Generally I prefer the idea of things being handled at the state level.   

But I guess my first thought is, should slavery be decided at the state level?

What do you think the SCOTUS would do, in turn?
