There are rumors that the Republican Party here in the US plans to ram through a nationwide federal ban on abortion if they win Congress with enough of a majority to override Biden’s veto. I don’t put it past them. The Democratic Party has refused to blow up the filibuster, which is a failsafe in place to prevent extreme legislation from any side from passing, but I suspect the Republicans will have no problem blowing it up if they think it will help them accomplish their goals.
I did have a peek at the A&H thread. As usual, the men on there don’t think this ruling will have any effect on their lives, that only “dangerhairs” have abortions. They have another thing coming. Women have been silent on the magnitude of this issue for far too long. Almost a million American women had abortions last year — the majority of them already have children, and many are already married. They don’t even inform their partners of their pregnancies because they fear their partner will demand they keep the child. Can we take care of a million excess pregnancies? A million children over the ones we’re already having? How many of these children will be babies with severe birth defects? What doctors and nurses will take care of them when we already have a shortage? Where will we get the money to care for them? The consequences of this decision will become obvious quite soon.
