The Pew Research Center’s poll highlights that partisan gaps in attitudes towards preborn babies have broadened in recent years. For example, while 63 percent of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents said that “abortion should be legal in all or most cases” in 2007, a stunning 80 percent of such voters hold this view in 2022. Republicans’ attitudes, unsurprisingly, remain essentially unchanged at 38 percent.
I watched this (from Red Rocks) when it first dropped (I’m a fan, after all). Burr is his angry, incredulous self – just how we like him. And these are jokes, people—lots of them, about many things. But when you talk about abortion, especially now, it triggers a lot of folks, so hey, why not talk about that?
And that there is the real problem! Be assured: the Young and Fertile who “depend on abortion for birth control” or “see abortion as a woman’s health issue”, couldn’t care less about the Court’s application of the law, the Constitution, Bill of Rights, stare decisis, enumerated powers or any of that pointy-headed legal stuff. It gets in the way of the childish, foot-stomping, “I-want-what-I-want-when-I-want-it dictum.
What if the unborn are, in some future legal context, defined as people? Article 22 would provide the unborn with “an individual right to personal reproductive autonomy [that] is central to the liberty and dignity to determine one’s own life course and shall not be denied or infringed.” You can’t abort them if they have these rights “unless justified by a compelling State interest achieved by the least restrictive means.”
That’s what happens with later-stage abortions, and predictably there is a lot of blood involved. It’s not health care. It’s not the exercising of someone’s ‘choice.’ It’s flat-out butchery, plain and simple. And with the possible exception of Satanism, to suggest that such actions are somehow not in conflict with one’s religion is simply outrageous.
For those of us far away in mind and body, we do not laugh, we do not cry, we do not even pity (though they are pitiful) these fools in a city named for a famous MAN (yes, I used the “M” word), George Washington. The city of the lying, bloated bureaucrats and pretentious “representatives.” The socialists, the baby killers, and the warmongers. The reds and the blues. The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly? No, just the bad and the ugly.
For, in fact, overturning Roe vs. Wade merely returns this question to the individual states where, in this thing called the “democratic process,” the American people (remember them?) will vote in these things called “elections” to determine whether or to what extent abortion will be limited. On the Alito draft, the American people in each state, in accord with the electoral processes in their own state, will decide this issue. It’s called “Democracy”.
Spray painting churches will not change hearts and minds. These “activists” are the same idiots who burned down former great cities like Portland and Minneapolis while tearing down statues all over the nation. They are mindless unemployed morons and we can only pray they do not reproduce.
Be prepared. Be on guard. America might witness a tide of leftist tantrums that will consume the news, television documentaries, and debates and discussions throughout social media. Furthermore, committed efforts to galvanize support among working Americans may spark radical activism to force the Supreme Court to uphold the 1973 ruling that gave women the right to take the life of their unborn.
