Leaked/breaking:Roe v. Wade expected to be overturned

[churchmouse]

Just a reminder folks. Let's keep this thread on track. There is a serious need for this to be discussed but absolutely no need to argue abortion. It's hard to separate but any discussion on this level needs to remain civil. If so no worries.
Go off the rails with it and time outs will be the order of the day.

Now let's get on with the meat and potato's here.

Funny, the people who were being critical of those recommending ivermectin are now advocating the use of a medication to treat horse ulcers.

Wonder if Eli Lilly will offer to relocate employees out of Indiana.

Heh.

I've already been called a Confederate for using the term states rights.

I've been called much worse.....and I take that one with a measure of pride!

And hopefully a place where good god-fearing folks don't mock them as whores.

Oh for crap sake man.....really.
Please dont push me fellas. Please. I am seriously not of the mood to put someone off. But trust we have some new staff that need the practice.

So we have locked this. Do not start another. I may open this in the morning.
People come on.

 

[churchmouse]

Ok. This is going to be very important as we get close to midterms and needs to be discussed.
If you like it here on Ingo then keep it civil. This is a marked thread.
Stay on point “Please”

Carry on.

Keep it between the ditches folks. When the Roe v Wade riots start I figure a lot of thread-locking will be going on.

Kind of gets ne that the pro choice people act like there will be no more legal abortions anywhere. My understanding is it will only remove the federal govt from the equation and throw abortions back to the states.
Illinois already has no restrictions on abortion having even done away with parental notification for minors. That state has the goal of being the most abortion friendly state in the union. Even though they have basicly no restrictions that I can see they are talking about what else they can do to make it easier. Illinois even thinks people will relocate there because abortions will be easier to get. There is even discussion of making professional licenses easier to transfer to Illinois to attract potential new residents.
Although it all seems insane to me I read an article a year or so ago about a family relocating from Montecello Indiana to Danville Illinois because they would be close to a legal source of marijuana.
It is all political to fire up the democrat base and they will be screaming about it till November. I must change "Leadeye's" standard phrase to fit this more closely. This time follow the power. Jim.

I'm late to the party, but is there any reason to believe that the leaked document is the actual opinion of the majority versus a possible lone dissenting opinion?

No, not the final opinion, it's just a draft and has been around since Feb.

Justices still can change their mind/decision on the case.

Myself, I think abortion is totally wrong. Don't care about the choice crap. Pro abortion people say it's not a life until it's born, bull****.
Bacteria on Mars is called "Life" but, a beating heart on Earth isn't.

Chief Justice Roberts confirmed that the document is indeed authentic, but as stated above, it is just a draft, and not necessarily the final decision.

Correct....also Judge Roberts also said Obama Care was Unconstitutional in all his writings, drafts and opinion pieces. Then on the day of judgement he changed his mind and voted for Obama Care.

The same thing can happen here also. With this SCOTUS I wouldn't be surprised if 2 of the 3 Trump judges did a flip flop right along with Roberts also. Nobody knows....I know Roberts doesn't know.

To be clear, the question before the court wasn't "Is Obamacare constitutional?" it was "Does the non-participation penalty amount to a tax?" to which Roberts agreed, yes it amounts to a tax and that is within Congress's authority to legislate and regulate. Not defending Roberts or his judgements but he is very specific and narrow in the scope of his judicial opinions. Just like this topic needs to stay between the lines he stays within the scope of the argument before his court and not make broad sweeping legislation from the bench. Probably how we ended up here anyway, he's never supported an activist court so this is one occasion where he has an opportunity to reverse a former activist court's ruling.

Did a post get deleted? I didn't see anything between the "meat and potatoes" plea and the lock that I think would necessitate a lock. I'm just trying to figure out where the line is for meat and potatoes.
