I do not condone any acts of violence, harassment, or intimidation against anyone for political purposes. Our tools for change are peaceful protest in the public square, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and most importantly "the vote".

I do think it is essential that we make voting "accessible" to all eligible voters and that we secure voter integrity... It is unfathomable that a country like ours can't make both work unless both political parties find it in their interest to "game" the election system. If necessary, deputize volunteers as poll workers and provide them national guard escorts and assign them to go to the homes of shut-ins and assist those who can't get to the polls to vote.

I am sympathetic to the urge of angry people to lash out be they liberals or conservatives regarding public policies and laws they feel are illegitimate or unfair. Mobilize, organize, and get out the vote next time even take to the streets... just keep it peaceful and don't harass or intimidate.

I also think issues that fester for more than 50 years reflect unsatisfactory resolutions. Roe v Wade was never accepted by the American people both pro life and pro choice. Pro choice people violated in many states, seeing it as the "minimal threshhold of reproductive rights with state like New York seeking to pass less restrictive abortion laws than the limits in Roe v Wade. Is is dishonest to suggest that only pro-life advocates had issues with the ruling and yet the media rarely raises that as it works to gen up a response by people depending on the media's views.

While politicians and various interest groups are using the current Supreme Court ruling to mobilize anger and votes, I think once the various states pass their individual definitions of "personhood", that the dust will settle.

Funding will become available to women that want abortions to travel and get them, meanwhile people that oppose elective abortions can take solace they have done what is legally possible to restrict them in their state... by voting.

People will still not agree, but hopefully the inability of Federal politicians to raise money on the issue, will deescalate the issue. In time I think the vast majority of people will feel satisfied with the outcomes.

Not because people will agree, but because people will feel the "majority in their state" have spoken and if you don't agree with your state's decision, you have options. You can move or if you want an abortion simply go to another state to get one (and a host of entities will help fund your trip).

I think attempts by state to prevent interstate abortions through state laws will be ruled unconstitutional because they violate the Federal government's authority to regulate interstate trade.

I am not a fan of elective abortions but I can live with ones done early in the first trimester before the baby take on a more recognizable form. I do support access to contreception and even the morning after pill.

But abortion should never be the form of "contreception" people rely on and given 40% of abortions are serial abortions, the odds that other birth control methods failed twice is extremely low. Rights come with responsibilities.
