So wait, if I'm pro-life I will gravitate to pro-life states. Sounds fair to me.

If you were so sure the "entire country" would vote for abortion, you wouldn't worry about power going back to the states, because all the states would go in your favor.

But they won't. Many people respect life. So your choice is, head to a place where abortion is welcome or to a place where life is valued. Easy peasy.

So, if you are rich or happen to live in a pro-choice state, you get to choose.

If you are poor and happen to live in an anti-choice state.....too bad for you. You are not granted the same rights as others because you cannot afford to travel to another state. Have the baby and go on welfare.

As a taxpayer, I sure hope I live in a pro-choice state.

"Morality", like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder.

I am 100% pro-choice for the first trimester of pregnancy, which I think gives a woman plenty of time to make up her mind and no, I do not consider abortion "immoral" at this point. . After that, I am pro-choice only for the reasons such as medical or a real danger to the woman's health or life. I am 100% opposed, and consider it immoral, to have an abortion in the third trimester because the woman has finally decided she doesn't want a baby, after all.

Really? First off, I don't "support abortion". I support a woman's right to choose abortion (within the legal restrictions) if she feels it to be best. So tell me, how does that make me 'selfish'? How does that make me 'irresponsible'? And, if you truly understood 'morality' you would know that it is based on one's beliefs. My beliefs are obviously different from yours, which means your sense of morality does not concern me in the slightest.

A woman is not allowed to get an abortion in the third trimester just because she decides she doesn't want a baby after all.

Now you're getting it. Good work. The next thing is to greatly curb welfare, of course.

There is nothing wrong with the power going back to the states. There are tons of situations where some have more advantage than others, and that's what comes from living in a free, democratic republic and not a socialist (well, not totally yet) country nor a communist country.

You might want to get your definitions right.
BTW, you have no idea who has and has not had an abortion.

Are you a christer? Were you taught to judge?

The feeling is mutual, although I am always disappointed and disturbed at those who vehemently bleat about how a woman can do anything with her body, regardless, in every instance. But to each his own, sadly for unborn life.

So apparently you are only "pro-life" up until birth and after the child is born you couldn't care less?
