Quote by: underbear1 Zealot your Republican party has much more to lose after Roberts and Alito overturn Roe vs. Wade, the women of America will make sure Republicans are never a majority party again. Women will recognise their ONLY choice for reproductive control of their lives lay with Democrats, and they won't trust Republicans for at least another generation. Blue States will retain their abortion laws ( passed prior to Roe), and Red State women will resent their rights being stripped from them.btw. nice republican underage daughters and mistresses have the annoying habit of getting pregnant at most inoppurtune times, what ya gonna do? |
Roe vs. Wade
should be overturned because abortion shouldn't be a federal issue. As you said, some states will likely declare abortion illegal, but others wont. That's fine. I personally don't support anti-abortion laws, though I discourage abortion, but that seems to matter little because California likely wouldn't add an anti-abortion law and won't pass a laws saying individuals can't discourage others from having an abortion. So it's the best of all worlds ... no federal police will be involved in the issue, and no state police either (at least in California). Overturning Roe vs. Wade would simply allows areas that have greater opposition to abortion to deny it but wouldn't deny others from leaving that state for an abortion. This might even encourage conservatives to live in areas that share similar views and reduce conflicts there as well as decrease the level of conflict over abortion present in other states.
The question is more appropriately whether or not the federal government has a role to play on abortion and I don't see it. Overturning Roe vs. Wade simply returns it to being something states can address if it's seen as important enough, but probably more than half the states won't get involved and at least for those states, neither federal nor state police would be needed for any of this either pro or con.
