The continued erosion of legal abortion access across the U.S. South comes after Republican state lawmakers replaced the lone female on the court, Justice Kaye Hearn.
Writing for the new majority, Justice John Kittredge acknowledged that the 2023 law infringes on “a woman’s right of privacy and bodily autonomy,” but said the state legislature reasonably determined this time around that those interests don’t outweigh “the interest of the unborn child to live.”
That’s a bit too far, but the whole healing the country and forgiveness thing didn’t work out. Maybe not let them vote for 100 years, extended jail sentences while we rebuilt without them or something…
If we let them live just to oppress them because we were too weak-willed to defeat our enemy in the first place, then their later generations will be much more likely to rebel and continue the cycle of bullshit.
Clearly we had no issues stomping out the natives who we stole the land from.
