Republicans won’t be satisfied with overturning Roe

[C_Clayton_Jones]

“Republican senators are giving us a glimpse of the culture war clashes to come. There are already warning signs — including the Texas directive that prohibits parents from legally providing gender-affirming treatment and therapies to their children, as well as various state officials’ questioning whether the Constitution sanctions contraceptive use. Indeed, some Republican senators have gestured toward these future conflicts. In his questions to Jackson, Sen. John Cornyn (R-Tex.) repeatedly sought her views of Obergefell v. Hodges, the court’s 2015 decision legalizing same-sex marriage, pressing her as to whether the decision was properly decided. Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) took her turn at the microphone to criticize Griswold v. Connecticut, the 1965 case that legalized contraception use. It’s not a stretch to imagine this revisionism extending to Loving v. Virginia, the ruling that legalized interracial marriage. A Republican senator recently said he was open to overturning that ruling. He later walked back his comments.

All this underscores that abortion was never the conservatives’ endgame. It is merely a way station on the path to rolling back a wide range of rights — the rights that scaffold the most intimate aspects of our lives and protect the liberty and equality of marginalized groups.”

You've been quite competent at naming names and parties until this one which begs the question, who? Link?

OH THE HORRORS

There are already warning signs — including the Texas directive that prohibits parents from legally providing gender-affirming treatment and therapies to their children,

Never met a child in my life who needed to be treated for his "gender."

Indeed, some Republican senators have gestured toward these future conflicts.

As the stomach turns.

Loving v. Virginia, the ruling that legalized interracial marriage.

Just because you CAN do something doesn't necessarily mean you SHOULD do it.

abortion was never the conservatives’ endgame. It is merely a way station on the path to rolling back a wide range of rights —

No one has a "right" to just arbitrarily murder another human being just because it is their baby. That is for the animals. Are you an animal?

the rights that scaffold the most intimate aspects of our lives

Not as intimate as being the fetus having your life snuffed out violently and painfully.

and protect the liberty and equality of marginalized groups.

Every group except for the living fetus.

Good. You are a murderer.

If Roe is overturned it simply goes back to the states and a complete ban on abortion or contraception in any state would be political suicide and would not be upheld in either the state or federal courts.

 

[Rambunctious]

Roe V Wade was bad law and can't stand up to constitutional scrutiny... Let this be a lesson to dems... eventually the US constitution will win... it may take 40 years but it will win because its right and its common sense.....

A directive which has been blocked by a court injunction.

Find another Boogeyman.

‘Abortion has long been a political bonanza for conservative politics and they are not going to want to give it up. If Roe is overturned there will immediately be a push to ban abortion nationally through some sort of "fetal personhood" doctrine and there will be attempts to cripple scientific advances by banning stem cell research, eliminating access to abortion medications and certain forms of birth control. Any states that might have exceptions for rape and incest will be challenged, restrictions on travel and laws against crossing state lines to obtain an abortion will be enacted. And at some point, they will have to consider punishment for women who obtain illegal abortions because that's where this inevitably leads. (Even Donald Trump instinctively understood that before they instructed him how to lie about it for general consumption.) The right has been organized around this issue for 40 years. If Roe is overturned, they will have to keep upping the ante to keep those grassroots activists engaged.’

That's the goal though. No abortion. No birth control. No gay marriage. No interracial marriage.

The pill is essentially an abortifacient because it prevents implantantion of the embryo on the uterine wall. So the pill should be banned.

What does interracial marriage have to do with the other three (assuming artificial birth control)? Nothing. The first three are immoral. Interracial marriage is not.

I hope so, it will take years to un-fuck what the dems have done.

You've wailed to the heavens about not being able to use the N word. You are a liar.

If Roe is overturned, the congress can pass federal law establishing national and rational standards for abortion. That’s what should have been done in the first place rather than legislating from the bench. Congress and the president will have nearly a year to accomplish this and until the mid-terms, the Democrats control both houses of the congress and the White House. If they have the will they can do it the right way; by legislation.

Can't we keep the interracial marriage?

Nice fantasy. But you have no evidence that republicans intend to do any of those things.
