That is also a very scary subtext of this ruling. The LGBTQ community have much to fear at the moment

A judge must agree. He left these two off with $500 bail. Nothing to take lightly or joke about

Show yourself some love, even. What does it take to raise a kid in this day and age?
Good luck finding formula.
Good luck finding day care.
Good luck having a job that gives any significant maternity leave (to say nothing of paternity leave).
Good luck finding affordable housing.
Good luck finding a job that gives you a chance to save for college.
Good luck keeping your children safe when the police will wait outside the school while an active shooting is taking place.
Good luck keeping up with the increased cost in food from wars, climate change, and supply chain issues.
Good luck keeping your kid from making another kid when they’re in middle school.

It was a legal ruling! Was the legal reasoning correct?
Does federal law in the US guarantee a "right to abortion"?
Try to be less emotional and more manly about this.

It was ruled through the glasses of religion not science or reason. Can’t get more emotional than that.

This is Thomas rattling off his own personal wish list. Notice his only citations to precedent are to…himself
This won’t happen. Threats to these other rights are specifically and explicitly nullified in the majority opinion, and here is a snippet of Kavanaugh’s concurrence which could not be more clear:

Does the fact that his wife is white not give you a hint?

Stopping abortions will definitely stop people from having sex.

Please correct me if i am wrong, but wasn't Uncle Clarence's wife (Ginni) up to her ass in Donald Trump's attempt to undue and overthrow the 2020 presidential election, and wasn't Uncle Clarence the lone dissenting vote in the Supreme Courts order rejecting Trumps attempt to withhold documents from the January 6 panel (documents which showed Ginni was directing involved in trying to pursued states into installing fake electors).
Sounds like Uncle Clarence has himself a giant conflict of interest here?

Reason and science have no bearing on this. Like it or not, 'rights' are non-existent in the natural world and are entirely based on the whims of societal expectations.
Back to the good ole days of give aways, crazy carpets down the stairs and coat hangers in the back alley. Legal, safe medical procedures have been banned but crap alternatives have been pushed into use. ???
Personally I'm torn ethically, it's a personal matter of the heart but sometimes is more dire practically.

Supreme court not based in reason. Laws affecting living creatures not based in science. Lovely

Damn it! Because of this I’ve had ‘Be A Man’ from Mulan stuck in my head for the last couple hours.
Funnily enough this has nothing to do with men.

Make no mistake, this is the first time in the history of the Supreme Court that they have issued a ruling, which takes away a right from a majority of United States citizens. I think we're just seeing the tip of the iceberg, and if we don't change our bearing, I'm afraid we'll be seeing a lot more of it, and soon.

Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
