Ironic that someone who's allegedly paid for several abortions wants to ban them. Scary, hypocritical people.

Forcing someone to have an unwanted baby is barbaric and medieval.

Abortions should be on-demand with a little counselling first so the options are understood clearly. The groups harmed the most today are the poor who cannot easily travel the hundreds of miles to get a legal abortion. Many have to leave their states to have the procedure performed. These added mandates harm poor black and poor hispanic people disproportionately.

Medical professionals providing family planning services need the same protections that other minorities enjoy.

These people should not be allowed to force their religious beliefs on others.

I'll believe they are pro-life when they march against the death penalty.

Pro-life is bad if you can't provide.

Somehow I feel the US is regressing in some ways in the recent years.

Just more big government invading people's lives.

When you think that American women have aborted 50 million babies since the 1970's and now have to import people to keep the population up - it makes perfect sense if American women stopped aborting and started raising these kids the American population would remain stable without changing the culture.

The march was barely even covered In the media.

I guarantee that if Trump, in all his philandering with prostitutes and porn stars while married and with babies, got one of said women pregnant, he'd push from an abortion. Probably has. The man's clearly not trying to appeal to these hypocrites and bigots for moral reasons.

So how can you guarantee that?? Whose are the bigots?

And you have the right to make that determination?

Yes, it's located within the Bill of Rights right next to all the other "rights" that you think exist.

The heart of the issue is money. Laws like this impact people who don't have it. If you have money, you do what every self-respecting anti-abortion Republican does when his mistress gets pregnant...you fly her to Canada for an abortion. That's what I'd do, so it doesn't impact me if abortion is illegal.

Laws like this are usually put in place by people who won't be burdened by the law.

Exactly. Those people are virtue signaling.

People with money would go on a long weekend trip to any of the large cities in the USA and have an abortion. They'd call ahead, make the necessary arrangements, have any required tests performed locally with the results provided and mandatory counselings performed. In some states, there are mandatory waiting periods.

Very few people in the USA goes to Canada for abortions.

Superlib: Just more big government invading people's lives.

I don't even know where to begin, but the ACA is a good start. I know how much that big govt mandate altered the life in my family for the worse. It disproportionately hit small business owners, hard.
