Define "woman"...

Seems like one Justice had difficulty with that...

Wish men truly understood but this is one subject men can’t ……..men will never be in her shoes for this reason they should not have a say.

So, you only support a woman's choice up until a certain time...

Men should "never have a say" and "I do not support late term abortion"...

Can you not see the contradiction there?

The War on Drugs and the creation of the DEA were implemented for this reason, not so much to curb usage but commerce in drugs.

Then why is Marijuana use a Federal Crime?

The Constitution, per the Tenth Amendment, is clear on this: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." We were birthed as a country with strong STATE'S rights. I think the trend may go back that way.

Hence, the SCOTUS is giving this power back to the States... Because, (according to Ginsberg) they got it wrong the first time...)

Now you want the government to control who can and cannot have children?

WOW!

So, 20 weeks (and earlier in some cases)?

False... Just another scare tactic...

It is a medical procedure and should be given the same legislative treatment as any other medical procedure.

Cool... So, a woman, a week before she's due, decides to change her mind and should be able to terminate the pregnancy? It's "just a medical procedure", right?

I don’t agree with that statistic and think there are more pro-life people in the country. Personally, I think there are specific cases that it should be legal, but most cases, especially 2nd or 3rd term, unless for the life of the mother, should be banned. Just my opinion.

That 75% is with strict limitations. Usually in the first trimester. A pesky little fact that is ignored by many having this discussion...

Do you think elected officials will be able to come to agreement on these scenarios?

I was one of the lucky women who never had to face any of these, but I can assure you had I ever been raped and impregnated I would never, ever, under any circumstances, have taken that pregnancy to full term.

Like I said "much to consider".

I think you and I will wait in vain for the answerer to the obvious question
