That would be the result if the abortion on demand pipedream is ever realized. It was nearly memorialized in the recent Women's Health Protection Act which 49 of 50 Democratic Senators voted to authorize under the guise of 'women's health', which would include something like post-partum depression.

I think I understand Alan’s interpretation of the text - it is what could, legally, be allowed. The worst case scenario if you had a woman and a doctor both willing to take advantage of the most extreme version of the law.
it is the same type of worst case thinking that caused me to stand outside a fence and yell at a house while holding a misdirected package for twenty minutes. The fence has “no trespassing” signs, the yard has trump flags and POW and Vietnam vets and I know that the vet inside it is armed (always) and taking psychoactive medication (usually) My state has stand your ground laws. And when I finally got to hand the guy his package, he said “why didn’t you just come around the back? You can see the shop lights.” And he seemed genuinely shocked when I replied “I didn’t want you to shoot me.”
I do not feel like my government protects me.

If I believed the governments job was to protect others, it would support the rights of the EPA to regulate greenhouse gasses and other pollutants. But the Supreme Court is probably going to gut that. So I can not for one second take them seriously as protecting us in that case.

I almost fell on the floor laughing.
Guns don't kill anyone in this country thank goodness or Republicans would be all over gun control and banning. To protect others from inflicting harm on you.
And that abortion the day before birth? Its called a c section and delivers a live baby. Do you think they are suffocated or stabbed to death in the delivery room?
The logic makes no sense to me.

Hmm, I see some issues here. A fetus has not been “born or naturalized” and we are making laws depriving women (whom I presume to be “person”s) of the privilege of health care.
