This is the boogeyman being pushed by the left for decades. It never happened then, and it won't now.

Clearly, some states are responding to the cavalier support of infanticide (after-birth "abortions"), in which doctors and the mother hold a summit about whether or not the delivered baby will live or be killed. That response is a surprise?

The SC will strike down the bans on early abortions, and the "heartbeat" laws. There's no way that Roberts will uphold those laws, and it's doubtful that Kavanaugh would. But all it'll take is one to vote with the liberals, and Roberts is sure to do that.

As for restrictions such as banning late term and partial-birth abortions, or infanticide, those will be upheld.

None of which means that Roe v. Wade will be overturned.

Infanticide is illegal.

If you are a woman who believes that the science from 1973 is still applicable for today you need to just get your ass back in the kitchen. Modern science has proven life begins at conception.
So I take it you're fine with not allowing women to use an IUD as birth control and you're completely upset when a fertility center destroys the unwanted fertilized eggs of its patients. Funny how I never see any legislation geared towards getting those fertilized eggs born.

And since we're talking about modern science, are you aware that there is no heart in a 6 week fetus? Instead, there is detectable activity within a 4-millimeter wide growth known as a fetal pole. The fetal pole is a thickening on the margin of the yolk sac of a fetus during pregnancy.

I mean, we ARE talking modern science here, right?

Guess that sum's it up..
In the same way you don't care about young women who are left dead or dying by back alley butchers. What makes your lack of caring so much more superior to what you think theirs is?

If you think women who have abortions don't care about themselves or their fetus and that's despicable, what would you call yourself for not caring about the lives of other people?

Imagine it going to the Supreme Court only to fail & the reason it failed was because Trumps two justice that he appointed voted against it. How would that look to liberals knowing that the fear they put into the public about abortion was just a scare tactic to try and not get those justices appointed.

I will be very pleased if SCOTUS unequivocally upholds Roe v Wade.

How would it look to conservatives, realizing that no one, not even conservative Supreme Court justices, buys all the fear and anger they have tried to stir up about "killing babies" over the past 4 decades?

Make tubal ligations and vasectomies much cheaper. Make it cheaper for people to freeze their eggs and sperm. Promote adoptions. Then abortions would be unnecessary.

Could Abortion Actually Become Illegal in America Again?
Yes, and I think liberals should just let it happen.

They are writing these State laws in order to pick a fight in Supreme court, and I think they should just let it get banned. It would be one wedge issue less to bicker about.
