Row v Wade, like some other decisions, is congress being lazy. I'm pro-choice and think abortions are medical decisions which should be legal while not a complete free for all. I always disagreed with R v W but not because I don't think abortions should be standardized on the national level because I agree they should be standardized on the national level. I don't think that job belongs to the judiciary, it belongs to the legislative branch.
If the will of the American people is to have abortion legal, and that does appear to be the majority opinion, then get it done in congress.

As polls have shown, it is the will of the majority of Americans but a minority Republican Party is able to defeat a legislative response. They now have a partisan Supreme Court on their side. It is carving out a new role for itself, of overturning decisions that advanced human rights.
Roe v Wade, Dred Scot, and Plessy v Ferguson. 3 of the left’s favorite cases. All poorly ruled.
Not all Republicans agree with you.
Good think I’m not a republican. Dems are the pro death, pro enslavement, pro racial divide party though so if I had a gun to my head and had to choose one, it’s a relatively easy choice.

Row v. Wade is a question I ask myself when I am on a fly-fishing trip in a drift boat. Your misuse of the english language was good in that it made my mind wander away from this grimness where we are discussing the innocent souls lost to the abhorrent act of abortion and on to a much cheerier topic: fly-fishing the Wind River Indian Reservation in Wyoming in the canyon below Boysen Reservoir.

Yeah, human rights like vivisecting human beings - sometimes pain-sensitive human beings - by dismembering them with forceps, dissecting them with scalpels, or, in the case of some late-term abortions, inverting them to a breech position, jabbing the backs of their necks with a scissor and inserting a suction device, then aspirating their brains to allow crushing of the skull to enable removal of the fetus from the birth canal. Some "human right." Rather, in many cases, this is torture, and always the execution of an innocent human being. What justice is meted out to the unborn human being?
As for the Supreme Court decisions (Roe and Dobbs), even a leftist such as Laurence Tribe, a Professor at Harvard Law School and co-founder of the progressive American Constitution Society, was very opposed to Roe on Constitutional grounds, and Justice Alito quoted Tribe and former Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who, though an advocate for direct abortion, also found some fault with Roe, in his majority opinion in Dobbs.

Actually, the latest polls show that 68% of Americans support bans or strict limiting on abortions in USA.

If abortion was as you have depicted, like a Frankenstein movie, no Western country would permit it. Yet all do. You have bought every part of the anti-abortion propaganda.
There is every chance that not a single woman has contributed an anti-Roe v Wade post on this thread. In keeping with the best traditions of groups like the Taliban, the arguments for suppression of female rights is exclusively male.

Many polls indicate that in the USA, women are more opposed to direct abortion than men. I am reminded how much Hugh Hefner and Playboy, Inc., fought for direct abortion. Playboy submitted amicus curiae (friend of the court briefs) for Roe v. Wade. It was very fitting of Hefner as in the USA, unmarried women procure more than 80% of abortions (85.9% in 2016 as I recall according to the CDC); of the remaining less than 20% (14.1% = 100%-85.9% in 2016) of abortions (those procured by married women), a significant percentage may be by women impregnated by men to whom they are not married: abortion in the USA is overwhelmingly a consequence of sex between people unmarried to each other - something Playboy is all about. Further, the majority of women having abortions in the USA were using a "contraceptive" drug or device when they conceived the child they aborted - usually about 54-55% according to the Guttmacher Institute.
If advocates for direct abortion wanted to reduce the number of abortions and the difficulty of out-of-wedlock pregnancies, they would oppose the sleazy lifestyle that so many of them - Planned Parenthood and Playboy quite conspicuously - promote. But they don't. Planned Parenthood has a great business model: promote out-of-wedlock sex and artificial birth control devices and drugs, and when these devices and poisonous drugs fail to sabotage adequately, which they do often, then execute the newly conceived human being via direct abortion. Oh, and contribute to the campaign coffers of politicians who support abortion and even funnel money right back to Planned Parenthood.

Most women are opposed to abortion in the US? So they have been campaigning against Roe v Wade for the last half century but those evil liberal males have been forcing them to have abortions? It takes quite a capacity for self delusion to be comfortable with being right-wing.

Another anti-abortion male writes. They are all male here. They know what's best for women.

I was in Washington, D. C., Friday, 20 January 2023, for the annual March for Life. I’ve probably marched in more than half of the Marches held since 1995, so about 15 times now. Females by my estimate made up more than half the marchers every year I attended. And the marchers I rode to the March from midtown Manhattan with by bus were predominantly females. I’ll go by my observations from Friday and many years over decades than with the comments of anyone from the Armstronglivs School of American Studies. How long did you reside here in the USA, Armstronglivs?

“[R]ight-wing?” Defending the weakest and least protected in society is something that leftists claim to do, but something they failed to do regarding living unborn human beings and abortion. That was what the very left-wing Nate Hentoff recited frequently in his columns in the very left-wing “Village Voice” - a popular newspaper here in New York City.

Just leave it up to the m.d.s to decide. Is that your answer? If health care were left up to the m.d.s to decide everything, very few medical doctors would treat poor people. If all health care decisions were left up to medical doctors without fear of criminal courts, too many m.d.s would give elderly fatal dose of morphine. M.d.s in U.S. are the main reason we don't have Austria-style government sponsored single payer healthcare. You want m.d.s. to have a greater license to kill? M.d.s kill too many by accident and m.d.s kill too many with intent as it is.

So because you and your "Sisters for Life" marched against abortion rights that must mean the majority of American women are opposed to abortion? Yet half a century of Roe v Wade suggests otherwise. I'm sure the "Daughters of the Confederacy" are just as representative of American women as your "Sisters for Life".
