    1. Yes, a Supreme Court Justice in 2024 that disagrees with your opinion on abortion is exactly like a group that facilitated genocide in the millions and inflicted actual tyranny you couldn’t begin to comprehend.
      IBJ, you need to hire Michael stat

  1. What are the “life-threatening” situations where an abortion is necessary?

    Ectopic pregnancy is obviously recognized as legitimate.

    Preeclampsia is treated by delivery of the baby, not murdering it.

    Uterine rupture is treated by delivery of the baby and probably a hysterectomy, not abortion.

    Women who have conditions that would cause death shouldn’t be having children in the first place and should be sterilized.

    1. Saying the quiet part out loud is generally a bad look. Would that be forcible sterilization? Could the women appeal to Todd Rokita for their dignity first?

      It does fit with the attitude of Indiana, in which we loudly claim to be a pro-life state as long as it doesn’t cost a red cent more. We’d rather women die than spend money on them.

    2. Joe,

      If a woman has a severe medical condition that would cause death in the setting of becoming pregnant, then why would that woman take a chance with getting pregnant and die from that?

    3. How about this: a simple answer, but not common in this environment–let’s let women determine what kind of healthy care they receive. And not allow men–especially (some) men (some of the) neanderthals commenting here–to make these critical decisions.

  2. Of course the “conservatives” are going to be skeptical. They don’t want to admit they just made up “alternate facts” to justify last year’s ruling, and that the rights they took away have real life consequences that they never considered because most of them are men.
