Has anyone on here revealed themselves to be pro Roe in the last 24 hours?

I don’t think I’ve seen anyone do so.

I invite them to come debate me here.

I've always been for mandatory abortions for leftists. I'm not sure if that's pro roe or anti roe though.

Roe V Wade is good for putting more power back within the states.

Not really. Usual suspects. Some Rs don't want us to mess with abortion because they fundamentally mistook what conservatism in America meant, but that's not really a shock either.

It’s a good way to preserve that certain issues which don’t Really affect the rest of the nation should be resolved by the state, not Fedgov.

Lefties however, are thinking abortion is now outlawed

Most recent surveys consistently have Roe V Wade not being overturned is around 60%. That was surprising to me.

Yeah but when you dig into the realities it's closer. I think Gallup had a 48-47 national poll last year (I think pro-choice was 48). Fox today has 50% favoring state laws banning abortion after 6 weeks (46% opposed), with it going to 54% - 30something at 15 weeks.

I also heard someone talk about how abortion is the one major progressive sacred cow they haven't gained ground on in the last 10-20 years. It's been more or less stagnant for a while, despite our culture pushing ideas on sex/gender/etc. that would seemingly support the idea of more people moving to pro choice.

well, considering most people in the country think Roe V Wade should stay in some form, I'd say you don't see many people outside an echo chamber. I know plenty of people on both sides

I'm just amazed by how many people think overturning it would mean abortions are illegal nationwide.

60% of whom? I hope you don't think these polls are 50/50 left/right.

Rulings that will ultimately restrict access to abortions will have long-term effects that I don’t think either side stops to consider, instead we just argue for our side in the short term.

American educational system and media mendacity.

I am against abortion personally, but I am a small "f" federalist that believes this issue (and most social issues) should be the purview of the states.

Mississippi should not be able to impose its law on abortion on New York, and vice versa.

I'm a Pro-privacy (the Constitutional argument that made abortion legal) but anti-abortion.

This decision literally says fedgov can regulate this issue

But this decision won't ultimately do that. The feds will come in and regulate abortions via Congress at some point.

Then all this fighting for 50 years has led to a net-0 outcome and has cost a ton, politically.
