roe v wade
The Supreme Court overturned the recognition of a constitutional right to abortion. This gives the individual states the power to allow, limit, or ban abortions.
I have never heard a pro-life argument that made sense to me. Not one. Do I feel that all abortions are justified? No. Some are more justified than others, maybe. Do I feel that people who have abortions are killing babies? Kind of. I mean…maybe not babies. To me a baby is something that has been born, is separate from its mother. But are abortions an end of potential life? A potential baby? Of course.
But in the end, there is only one argument, here. And that is it’s not my fucking business whether you need or want to end the life that you have created, before it is born. It never ever will be my business, or my decision, unless somehow I defy nature and biology itself and become pregnant. I’ve known a number of people that have had abortions. Do they regret it? Maybe. Should they have done it? Probably. Again, it’s not my business. For anyone to tell a woman that she can or can’t do anything with her own body is so deeply, deeply fucked.
Now her local government will be allowed to tell her that she can and can’t do something with her body.
To the men that are now feverishly putting laws into effect that keep women from making an already difficult choice: y’all are Grade A assholes. You have never had a say in this. Your gender prevents you from chiming in, period. Fuck you. I hope Hell is lame as possible for you.
To the women that are now helping to feverishly put laws into effect that keep women from making an already difficult choice: what’s up, traitors? I want you to all get pregnant, right this minute, no matter how old you are or how busy your life is. I want you to find this instant miracle pregancy to be terrifying and repugnant to you. Those that have the baby even though you don’t want to, OK. Congrats. You stuck to your guns. Good job walkin’ the walk. But to those that “murder that baby”? Join those aforementioned men in Hell.
