@averagejoe1 saidThey perjured themselves during their confirmation hearings.
We can all stipulate the role of the justices as same pertains to the Constitution. That is what they did in Roe, resulting in their findings and decision.
So, very specifically, why are the people who don't work picketing for bounties, ....what was the justices' offense to warrant bounties?
I am not being glib. Truly, what is the deal? Assuming that everyon ...[text shortened]... hat is. Those who want to change the law, that is fine, but I am talking about today, this decision.
@shavixmir saidthe US hasnt banned abortion...study up, it will keep you from appearing ignorant
One only needs to look at which countries have abortion banned and which don't.
And it's rather obvious the US is up there with the religious extremists in the Middle-East.

@Mott-The-Hoople
I heard those hearing and they SAID R V W was established law and they would not touch it, said that just to get through the hearings.

@wildgrass saidNeither are cars but it did say I can own slaves so are we going by the constitution or are you guys going to pick and choose what you like and ban what you don't like?
Guns aren't there either.
@mott-the-hoople saidDid you understand any of it?
cant find that in my reading of the US constitution…can you point it out?
@jj-adams saidNot yet.
You compare the US with the Middle-East Islamic states of pain and torture?
Well at least we don't stone women to death for being raped or make them wear horse-blankets from head to toe, with a mesh mask over their face, because they are like, so unclean and evil and stuff..

@sonhouse saidExactly.
@Ron-DeSantis
I guess you never heard of amendments.
Picking and choosing what you like and banning what you don't like.
Constitution arguments will never end.
@mott-the-hoople saidDo you tire of ALWAYS being wrong.........?
no they didnt...you can quote them if you want...but you cant because you are lying
.And, childish name calling is for juveniles.
Oh, anyway, here are FACTS

@sonhouse saidAs I've said here before, they are merely doing the job they were hired to do.
@Ron-DeSantis
That would be because it had nothing to do with law or jurisprudence, it had EVERYTHING to do with the fact they were Trump appointees who were well known to be extreme right wingers AND beholden to the ultraright religious right.
This was a 100% response to 50 years of ultraright wing religious faction that gained control of at LEAST 1/3 of the entire govern ...[text shortened]... uld support it but it didn't even go as far as raising the age of ownership to 21 like it should be.
Did anyone expect anything different?

@Ron-DeSantis
Amendments correct for changes because we are 200 years beyond the original but hey, any change is no good for you. You would own slaves if it was still legal.
Hand grenades were not around 200 years ago and so not in the constitution so should an 18 yo be able to buy those too?
