States ought not ban medical procedures which are mainstream in major countries around the world on the basis of religious ideology, but unfortunately that's what's happening in states like Texas.

This is a private matter between any individual and their doctor.

Of course rich individuals will still be able to fly to countries like UK or Germany to receive mainstream medicine backed by mainstream science.

Yikes. Preventing abortions brings unwanted children into the world and pushes abortion underground, where they’ll just be less safe abortions. Do you know how unwanted children are treated? I volunteer as a guardian ad litem for children who need a court appointed advocate, and I support abortion fully having seen the alternative suffering, not to mention anti abortion proponents supporting life right up until birth, and then it’s “good luck champ, this is America, find those bootstraps.” Ask your anti abortion proponent how many unwanted children they’ve fostered or adopted.

Anti abortion in America isn’t about pro life, it’s about giving a certain political subset control over womens’ reproductive rights.

Edit: this will also accelerate women obtaining permanent birth control (a tubal ligation or a bisalp, which is 100% covered by the ACA as preventive care) who are sitting in the fence or have firmly decided in being child free. Can’t take chances if you could be stuck with a child you didn’t want for 18 years.

So it’s better for them not to exist? Would be nice to at least give them a chance to live.

It could always be ruled the other way. Over 300 Supreme Court decisions overrule another one.

Abortion predates Roe by at least 3500 years. This just pushes it geographically and socioeconomically.

Well dude, you obviously don't care who sees it, because you have the PC opinion. I'm also pro womens right to choose, but I'm not religious, and I don't believe that I should be forcing my beliefs on highly Christian states that I've never been to if they want to do things differently. But you see, THAT'S not PC, hence why I have no choice but to use a throwaway.
