Hearing him use the word "rational" is ironic.

That's how you know it was a Dem political operative that leaked it and that Biden thinks the Dems will benefit from it in some way.goatchze said:I'm not sure if that is the whole document, but I can't believe it did not lead with how horrible the leak was and that such illegal actions threaten to undermine the court and its workings.Agthatbuilds said:Biden statement on Supreme Court draft on Roe v.

I remember friends who got pregnant and it wound up not being the end of the world that the culture at the time and today's culture would tell you it is.Sully Dog said:I remember not getting anyone pregnant.GeorgiAg said:CanyonAg77 said:
Condoms are cheaper than abortion. Saying "no" is free.
Even the poorest and dumbest out there realize unprotected sex leads to babies. If abortion is taken away, they will switch birth control methods.
I have no idea why you persist with the assertion that people cannot change behavior
You were a teenager? Do you remember what it was like? Dumb and full of hormones.

Honest questions: Would she have kept the baby if she didnt have the support system of a "whole family" and the opportunity to work and finish school? If your parents would have pushed her away, and did not support her, would she have chosen differently?Sully Dog said:
My sister got knocked up her freshman year and decided to keep the baby. It was really hard for a couple years. The whole family helped pitch in while she worked and finished school.
She now has a great family, a husband, four kids (one step), is financially successful, and her baby girl just got a full ride to college to become a nurse.
It was hard, but life is hard. It was by no means the end of the world and my life would have been less fullfilled by not having that little girl in it.
The most complex cases, which are usually also the most controversial, end up being released on the last day of the term, which is usually in June, but on occasion can run into July.flakrat said:Wow, was thinking today or this week.

Amazingly, the threads have been fairly civil, so far. A few drive by troll comments and posts trying to bait people for a ban, and that's about it.BenFiasco14 said:

Also a long time to try and intimidate just one judge to change their opinion. Less likely this would have leaked if the current score wasn't 5-4.flakrat said:Wow, was thinking today or this week. That's a long time to REEEEEEEE before the official word comes out.The Debt said:flakrat said:

I assume that Roberts not writing this opinion means he was not in the majority.

I worry that this leaker has potentially put the lives of some of the justices in danger.
I started a thread when the leak came out that Roberts was not authoring the opinion that it was likely a 5-4 decision and Roberts was not in the majority. That would mean Thomas as the senior justice in the majority assigning who would write for the majority. I thought Thomas would want it for himself so surprised it was Alito.WHOOP!'91 said:I assume that Roberts not writing this opinion means he was not in the majority.

My pansexual queer 3-year-old child of color, Pebble Solomon Haworth, just read the Politico SCOTUS leak, looked up at me and asked, through tears, “non-birthing parent, why would Ron DeSantis do this?”

This is absurd. No judge should have a red line they cannot cross because of precedent.
Precedent is wholly overrated and has been proved as much by hundreds of cases that have overturned existing law."
I agree. We should give ourselves a Blue StarRapier108 said:Amazingly, the threads have been fairly civil, so far. A few drive by troll comments and posts trying to bait people for a ban, and that's about it.BenFiasco14 said:

Yes. The decision wasn't made because of the support structure. In fact, some family members thought she should have had an abortion.tysker said:Honest questions: Would she have kept the baby if she didnt have the support system of a "whole family" and the opportunity to work and finish school?
