Thats not really accurate though, look at many other 'federal' laws, that states and even cities enforce very aggressively!
The main one being drug laws, and/or Marijuana laws, my own city/county enforces the federal Marijuana laws very aggressively, even though public opinion on Marijuana is changing.
I can understand the feds enforcing their own laws, but cities, counties and states? That isnt right.
There are other federal laws that cities, counties states enforce aggressively as well.
In fact, I cannot think of any federal law, that states, cities and counties refuse to enforce? (they are all in lock step with the feds.)
There are numerous federal laws, that realistically states, counties, municipalities chose to not address or enforce. They may not acknowledge it, but it certainly occurs.
You can’t compromise on freedom and bodily autonomy, you either have it or you don’t.
I agree but with abortion how do you deal with the fact that there are two bodies involved? The body of the mother and the body of the baby. It’s super complicated for this reason.
Abortion Pills Now Account for More Than Half of U.S. Abortions
The data, released in a report Thursday, is a sign that medication abortion has become the most accessible and preferred method for terminating pregnancy.
Supporting the government mandating vaccines as a condition of employment is not in support of bodily autonomy, just an fyi. Coercion is a form of force. I hope people will really spend some time deeply thinking about what true bodily autonomy means.
I'll 100% give you that a fetus with a heartbeat is it's own person and isn't part of the mother.
I still argue that the mother has the right to choose to not continue the pregnancy.
And that's pretty much how I believe....but for me I can't actually reconcile those two sentences. I truly understand a lot of the points made from both sides.

You're right. I think you and I feel similarly on the issue, at least partly.
