And the consequences of strict abortion laws are already being felt by women who miscarry. In Texas, abortion laws inhibit care for miscarriages As the Supreme Court appears poised to return abortion regulation to the states, recent experience in Texas illustrates that medical care for miscarriages and dangerous ectopic pregnancies would also be threatened if restrictions become more widespread. One Texas law passed last year lists several medications as abortion-inducing drugs and largely bars their use for abortion after the seventh week of pregnancy. But two of those drugs, misoprostol and mifepristone, are the only drugs recommended in the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists guidelines for treating a patient after an early pregnancy loss. https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2022/05/10/1097734167/in-texas-abortion-laws-inhibit-care-for-miscarriages The article goes on to say how the other treatment called a surgical uterine evacuation is procedurally identical to an abortion And here's a link to another article from a practicing ob-gyn doctor in Alabama which backs this up in horrifying detail. https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2022/05/roe-dobbs-abortion-ban-reproductive-medicine-alabama.html Here's a link to a scholarly paper on the subject https://scholarlycommons.law.wlu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=4405&context=wlulr

A very convenient flip-flop from a judge who unequivocally stated his alleged opinion not long ago. And whether or not people change their opinions all the time is irrelevant. We're talking about judges. People who have been studying laws and ruling on them for much of their lives. You think that they flip-flop all the time. That is a ridiculous opinion.

If anyone needs any more proof that Justice Kavanaugh is a liar here is a selection from notes taken during Susan Collins meeting with him where he assured her he wouldn't overturn Roe “Roe is 45 years old, it has been reaffirmed many times, lots of people care about it a great deal, and I’ve tried to demonstrate I understand real-world consequences,” he continued, according to the notes, adding: “I am a don’t-rock-the-boat kind of judge. I believe in stability and in the Team of Nine.” https://www.nytimes.com/2022/06/24/us/roe-kavanaugh-collins-notes.html

Really? Is that because you share the view of the Putin and company that there is no such thing as "Ukrainians" or Ukrainian culture? That they are really Russians? In areas where Russians have taken over in the South, where most of the people are ethnic Ukrainians, the Russians are now forcing schools to teach in Russian. You think that's in the interest of Ukrainians?

I don't know what you think your anecdotes prove. I'll see your anecdotes and I'll raise you this: "Diaz is one of 360 suspects arrested so far during Operation Without a Trace, an ongoing crackdown launched nearly two years ago by Homeland Security Investigations and U.S. Customs and Border Protection to intercept illegal guns, said Joseph Lestrange, division chief of Homeland Security's Transnational Organized Crime. These agencies team with the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to investigate the financing, transportation, and communications methods of smuggling networks. "Agents launched 534 investigations, seized $29 million and intercepted more than 1,200 guns, 4,700 magazines for semi-automatic and automatic weapons and 700,000 rounds of ammunition headed to Mexico, Lestrange told The Courier Journal this month." https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2021/08/25/american-guns-help-arm-mexican-drug-cartels-including-cjng/5586129001/
