Me neither. I detest the concept of abortion, but I'm also well aware I can't argue against its legality from a conditional standpoint.
In every state that has voted for forced birth, women are less than 40% of the state legislators. In many they are less than 20%. So literally men forcing their will on women's bodies.
Views on abortion don’t really vary much by gender. https://news.gallup.com/poll/245618/abortion-trends-gender.aspx
Republicans don't need to be popular. All they need is extreme gerrymandering and voter suppression to guarantee them a majority even with a minority of votes, and five far right activists on supremacist court. Seriously, none of their ideas are popular. Outlawing abortion, overturning marriage equality, book banning.
Sounds like a terrific program, @SlyPokerDog. There should be a secular version in every school. I stead, schools are banning every book on sexuality and states pass don't say gay and don't make white people uncomfortable laws.

A rabbi and congress member wrote an op ed about this ruling's attack on First Amendment. Abortion in Jewish law is not only permitted, it is a religious imperative when pregnancy would threaten life or health of the woman. And that includes her mental health and overall wellness. For the radical right wing activists on court, religious freedom means freedom for conservative Christians to force others to live by their views and to hate gays.
