harpgirl BS: Cool! a conservative white man nominated (115* d) RE: BS: Cool! a conservative white man nominated 25 Jul 05


"If Roe v. Wade is overturned abortion won't go away. Each state can and has legistlated on the issue. It does mean that some states will be more difficult (like it was ever easy?) to obtain safe and legal abortions. Amazing how those who oppose abortion think that if it's made illegal it will go away. They have no regard for the young women of America (chattle, apparently) who have the least amount of power in this entire transaction (when compared to the conservative white males who would force this situation upon them) and who will once again start turning up as bodies dumped in discreet places after they die from botched abortions."



Calling these remarks "arguing from cliche" is just a sneaky, patronizing way of dismissing them, John.

SRS is correct in everything she says. If Roe v. Wade is overturned, many states will make abortion illegal and women will still seek abortions.

Wealthy women will still have abortions and poor women will have children they don't want or can't take care of but would have aborted if they had the opportunity. And many will die from operations which are done on the sly and without proper medical support.

White males or males at all, for that matter should not be able to legislate this choice. It is a women's problem and should be a women's right.
