The U.S. Supreme Court did not outlaw abortions. The justices, in a 5-4 decision, voted to send the matter back to the states, for their own legislatures to individually decide. Fifty states will not all walk in lockstep. Democrats, however, fearing a massive loss in the midterm elections in a backlash vote to Biden’s irresponsible actions and onerous inflation that is having an excruciating effect on Americans, are using abortion to bolster their candidates. Protesting crowds of leftists are easily activated. They come equipped with signs, slogans and super-size quantities of rage. It’s become a career for hordes of them. The issue is of less consequence than the ability to amass, harass and engage in destruction.
Imagine campaigning on dead babies.
“The Constitution does not mention abortion. Further, there is no such built-in right in the Constitution as part of the 14th Amendment. The 14th Amendment guarantees certain rights not explicitly mentioned in the Constitution, but any such right must be well rooted in the nation’s history and customs. It is time to give the Constitution its priority, and return the issue to elected officials,” jointly wrote the affirming justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett.
In fact, the justices said that although various rights can be found in the American Constitution that are not explicitly written, the right to abortion is not one of them, because it was not “deeply rooted” in American existence when the Constitution was written in the 18th century.
“The Constitution does not confer a right to abortion. The authority to regulate abortion is returned to the people and their elected representatives,” states the majority opinion.
We should all rejoice in those rational words.
They logically counter the latest outrageous trend being embraced by Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider, and the radical ACLU — using the issue to fund raise — which contend that bisexual, transgender, non-binary men can become pregnant and need abortions.
We are living in a world where absurdities and deceit have replaced medical facts and rational thinking.
