They did not offer it to a friend of mine who was raped years ago. If this is happening, then this is something new

Cannot remember which states, but I did read there is at least one state which wants to prosecute women getting an abortion, plus anyone helping them to procure them. Doctors has well. Women of childbearing age needing a negative pregnancy test to leave their state?

Now here is where letting individual states decide is a problem. Woman goes to another state for an abortion where it is legal. How is that state even going to know and prosecute her? Texas can sue a doctor in California for performing a legal abortion there on a Texas resident? Imagine the legal nightmare with something like that. Today there are medication abortions in the early weeks. Is she or isn't she pregnant? No more OTC pregnancy tests? Only an in state Doctor can test and has to report it to that state? No Travel Lists? lol

This craziness happened back in 1970 when NY legalized abortion and NJ didn't.
NJ women getting on mass transit and going to NY for abortions. NJ couldn't stop it, and the legislators were furious. Legally they could not prosecute NY doctors, or know if their women left the state for abortion.

This was another reason why Roe was enacted. Women crossing state lines to where abortion was legal.

Every victim does not go to the hospital right away.

That said, in states that decide to consider the Morning After pill as an abortion med, the hospitals won't have those pills available. Then what?

This is going to get very, very ugly indeed with the questions you are asking. They are valid and need to be answered so women can make the proper decisions for themselves.

There are less of “them” than there are reasonable responsible people whose major concerns are the suffering they are enduring because of lefts’ destruction of our middle class.

Not a single voter will change their voting habits over either of the 2 recent SCOTUS Decisions, guns or abortion. We were already diametrically polarized on the issues of abortion and guns. All these decisions did was to retrench those already in the opposing camps. Nothing more.

But now?
Nobody is requiring a woman to have sperm inserted into her body.

Democrats were requiring people get a substance inserted into their bodies.

See the difference?

Freedom got a big boost today.

One baby is aborted, and one is brought to term. Which baby is poised for a lifetime of freedom?

I have never heard it said, "Death will set you free".

Just like democrats are forcing Americans to twist their lives around to live under their regime, the same can be turned your direction. Maybe “then what” will mean adults better take responsibility and stop using abortion as birth control.
