They have to do that now if a fetal heartbeat is detected.....about 6 weeks.

They can all go to NY where you can have an abortion up to and including being in labor.
Not everybody has the luxury of being able to go to another state.

There was a poster on another site who said there should be no abortion exceptions even when the mothers life is at stake. Her reasoning? It was better to let the mother die so she could go to Heaven with the baby.

How can there ever be rational discussions about abortion when nuts like that exist?

Why males need to stay out of this discussion. Period
Women need to rise up and stand up for our rights. Now this jerk wants to prevent travel. Whole bunch of nasty words crossing through my mind.
Fine as soon as women shut up about every male issue than I will

Maybe you should introduce that person with those who say the unborn child is not human or is a parasite?

If some hold that view, it doesn’t negate the fact that someone who believes that letting a pregnant woman die is preferable to saving her based on the fables they believe in and thinks that belief should be forced on us all. You ok with your daughter dying from an ectopic pregnancy to satisfy those views? Pretty sure not.

In the eyes of conservatives, poor people are morally deficient anyway. The GOP lawmakers have enough cash to send their daughters and mistresses on a nice little vaca to California - they're certainly not the sort of people who deserve to have their lives derailed over a little mistake.

No it is not legal to murder a baby in any state.

What is possible is if the life of the mother is threatened a choice can be made to save her rather than the unborn child.

Texas Republicans say if Roe falls, they’ll focus on adoptions and preventing women from seeking abortions elsewhere - Texas Tribune
Not surprising as many republicans believe that the government owns their bodies. This would be saying that being a resident of a state means that the state controls everything you do in life, owns you.

This is a state that banned the sale of vibrators until 2008. (A ban that was defended eagerly but no other than Ted Cruz.)

Conservatives don't want small government, that's a lie. They want government that feels small, to them. That is, government that clears the way for them, panders to their preferences and keeps everybody else in line.

Both parties favor very big government. The parties have gotten together and decided which issues each on would take. They cant collect bribery on issues that they all agree with. So republicans claim some issues and democrats claim others. That way they can raise money based on opposing the other parties preferences. In reality, the politicians have no preferences except to bring in bribery money.
