Respectfully, it is easy to have this view when it is someone else's core right at stake. This is a complex issue - the Constitution does also envision protecting the rights of the individual against the wishes of the masses.

I know I'm going to get hammered for this but they could start by not having unprotected sex.
Who's they?
Black Americans?
Or the 7500 Americans in general in Alabama?
In general "they" are all the human beings who have unprotected sex.

But what if the Supreme Court bans contraception?
What if insurance companies and state insurance like Medicaid stop paying for contraceptives?
What if access is limited or denied?
Then don't have sex unless you are willing to live with the consequences???

Can you imagine if Hillary had won the election? We'd still have faith in government, elections, and the courts. Instead, we have a deeply divided nation pitting neighbor against neighbor.

What a sad day.

You can blame all of those elite progressives and Bernie supporters who stupidly failed their Party and didnt get off the couch on voting day for Hillary not winning in 2016. And for what it's worth, 1 in 10 Bernie supporters voted for Trump.

1 In 10 Bernie Sanders Supporters Ended Up Voting For Trump : NPR

First and foremost we can blame Republicans and conservatives who support all this nonsense
Two words: Joe Machin. Abortion rights would be the law of the land with Harris in attendance to break any tie-in on the vote to enshrine the abortion protections of Roe v. Wade into federal law. Basically Joe Manchin gets to decide what becomes law these days.

Do you really think this is realistic advice? On a societal level? Just don't have sex?

The truth is that sex will happen, unwanted pregnancies will happen, and banning abortion doesn't stop it. It just makes abortion more dangerous and only accessible to the upper classes.

Bigger picture, I predict federal legislative remedies. Dem's will change the rules to not allow filibuster and they will get something passed. It will be too extreme. Repubs - after taking back Congress in the fall - will pass changes. Biden will veto it. At some point in the future - maybe 15-20 years from now - the federal law will settle somewhere more consistent with the populace. Lives will be impacted until then.


And there it is. The denial of rights because he disapproves of your morals.

To be consistent with htp's views on individual rights vs. the power of the majority, I think the state of California should put it to a vote on whether htp is a he or a she. All appropriate gender affirming care should be mandated thereafter.

I accept your ignore for your lack of understanding of how the law works, along with your uncanny Trumpesque ability to repeat the same things over and over. The Supreme Court cannot ban contraceptives. If for some rational reason, a state wanted to ban contraceptives and Justice Thomas' opinion became law, then the Supreme Court would allow that state to ban contraceptives. Allowing a state legislature the ability to enact a law is not the same as the Supreme Court enacting a law.

I cant wait to see HTP stand up as a good Christian and start adopting some of those black infants from Alabama.
I think that he could start an incredible wave of goodwill in the retirement community that he lives in at Rossmoor.
I look forward to helping him in any way that I can.

Yup, notice the date of this article:
https://www.texastribune.org/2022/06/18/texas-gop-platform-gender-sexuality-preborn/




This platform also included the repeal of the Voting Rights Act and the repeal of 17th Amendment (which allows direct election of Senators). They don't believe in democracy either.

If there were exceptions for cases of rape, incest, or health risk to the mother you would ok with the decision?

I haven't read the opinion. I believe the vote was 6-3. Sounds like Roberts did vote to overturn Roe but wrote a concurrence to express different legal views.
The vote was 6 - 3 with Roberts writing a separate concurring opinion.

He concurred in the judgement only, and would have limited the decision to upholding Mississippi law at issue in the case, which banned abortions after 15 weeks.

1000% incorrect. If I were a legislator my views would probably be somewhere in the zone of Robert's Concurrence or perhaps Bill Clinton's line - abortions should be legal, safe and rare.

"Future fights: Justice Clarence Thomas wrote in a concurring opinion overturning Roe that the court should reconsider other due process precedents protecting same-sex relationships, marriage equality and access to contraceptives." Axios

Since Clarence Thomas is in such a "reconsider" mood, perhaps we should "reconsider" whether the good justice perjured himself during his Confirmation Hearing:

*One can only imagine what will happen when an internet porn case comes before this religion driven court.

He said the court should reconsider and strike the concept of Substantive Due Process as a matter of law. Those cases certainly fall under that umbrella. Maybe it is meaningless semantics to some but he was attacking the legal basis for a host of decisions, not the rights afforded people under the decisions per se.

Maybe but only if you ignored the fact that legislation was introduced yesterday by Republicans to fine any leaker of a SCOTUS decision in addition to a 10 year prison term. Never mind there have been protests outside of conservative justices' homes and an assassination attempt.

I don't think Roberts overruled Casey, but did give a thumbs-up to allowing the law in question. At this juncture, it is meaningless point of law.

The no exceptions part is rather disturbing. Normally, with the price of gas at whatever, no one who would vote GOP cares that much. Women with means will just go to another state, and the really poor who want an abortion don't vote GOP much. But the health risk to the mother may have to be an immediate decision. I guess doctors will do what they need to do to save the mom and doctor the paperwork to make it work. You would think the rights of someone to live would be rather fundamental.

This ruling is what you voted for in 2016. One would think an attorney would have known the lives of women were at stake.

i didn't read the opinion to say incest, rape, health risk to mother were allowed. I would expect such provisions are subject to the rational basis test. It's hard for me to see how such restrictions could pass even that low bar.

Very nicely typically disingenuous of you....now do the full quote from 2006 where he says he supports roe v Wade and wants access to safe a orations but wants to work on lowering the total number .... Seems pretty straightforward to me.

Then you can put an actual quote from him today since the second statement is not a quote.

I based my comments on what Diablo said either in the OP or the post thereafter. If cases of where the mother's health at risk are still to be fundamental rights, then the issue really is about access for poor women. You can then argue about the social policy of forcing additional children for poor women, which by my characterization of the issue, tells you where I stand.
