We are getting deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole here...

Why shouldn't they? SocCons are going to do everything they can to punish women for getting abortions or contraception should they get the chance. If we get to that point, what is wrong with self-defense against unjust persecution?

Some US states will still have legal abortions if Roe v. Wade is overturned, such as California (which in fact has constitutional protections for abortion rights). Abortion clinics there are going to be getting a lot of patients...

The burden of proof is on you, who made the assertion that abortion rights are somehow written into co-variant quantum fields (and can't spell "illegitimate").

Hyperbolic bull. First you say that women should use guns to defend abortion rights, and now you are ridiculously applying slave laws to the issue of abortion?? :eyebrow:

You are looking way too far into this and always coming up with the most inane, crazy conspiracies like this as if there's a snowball's chance in Hell that it will happen. Spoiler alert: it won't.

That's exactly what this looks like, it reads like a crackpot conspiracy theory that is so unbelievably out there and hyped up that it just collapses into a chaotic and unstructured pile of ridiculousness...

Come on man, give it up, this ridiculous conspiracy theory has gone on for long enough. Notice that everyone who has responded to your posts has responded negatively? That should tell you something buddy, it really should...

He won't, he sees everything that goes against his values, even in the tiniest form as evil and against him.

Still doesn't equate to slavery and the slavery laws, no matter how much you bend and contort it, that square peg just doesn't fit into that hole I'm afraid.

I don't think any woman should be forced to carry to term or to abort. That's what being pro-choice is about. But your scenario is rather silly. Even red states in the US can't prosecute women for having an abortion. Especially not when said abortion is performed in the allotted time.
