GR will be delighted I imagine. It seems the Americans can continue to kill each other at the rate of something like 45000 per year.

I hope you were in your own house. Once a guest just picked up the bottle and filed up his glass. It just did not look like. When the glass is almost empty a refill is always offered in any Cypriot household. There are some strange people about.

Bastards.

All it means is women will be going into backstreet places endangering their lives. I guess they always have a choice to go to Canada for those who can afford it.

What a strange world. You have the right to buy a gun and kill lots of people but a mother has no right to abort an unwanted unborn foetus.

Actually, you have the right to buy a gun with a permit but not the right to kill people.

In comparison, an expecting mother also has the right to buy a gun and (until a few moments ago), the right to abort (kill) an unborn baby.

Aren't you lucky your mother kept you.

American laws are always designed to come with loopholes, or else how can lawyers make money? There are laws which says certain things are banned, but they are not in reality. They are in fact more of an inconvenience for the people than being outlawed completely.

Let’s take the recent abortion issue where it is no longer legal for women in having the constitutional right to get an abortion, but it does not mean a woman cannot get an abortion if she wish to have one in the US or at another country. It just means she may not be able to have a legal abortion at her home city or state, but is free to have an abortion in another state or another country. So, all these righteous anti abortion motherfuckers outside the Supreme Court celebrating the recent ruling have gained nothing other than causing inconvenience to their fellow citizens with their make believe savior of the unborn, which often the same righteous motherfuckers who support the death penalty.

The abortion laws will only impact the very poor, the uneducated and those from broken homes which means that it is mainly these people producing more of the same putting greater burden on the American welfare system, more stresse on the overstretched poor schooling system, more crime on the streets, more drug usage, more crowded prisons, and more decayed American society which affects everyone, including those mindless self righteous anti abortion motherfuckers which complain the most about the decaying American society. It is easy for these brain dead motherfuckers to jump on the anti abortion bandwagon, and then complain why America is fucked up in many ways.

By the way, I don’t know anyone who is pro abortion because this group does not exists as it does with the pro anti abortion mindless brain dead motherfuckers in America. No one wakes up one morning and then decides to go and have an abortion because they are for pro abortion. So, basically these pro anti abortion nutcases have won nothing yesterday since half the states in the USA will allow women the right to have an abortion if they wish to have one. The Supreme Court just gave that authority to the individual states to carry out that law. If one is unlucky to live in a anti abortion state, those who can will be able to travel to a legal abortion state. Just one more way in dividing America for political reasons. All I can say is, I am glad I do not live in the USA any longer with such brain dead motherfuckers.

Kikapu get your facts straight …. Abortion is not illegal in America.. todays Supreme Court ruling overturning roe v wade only says the federal government is out of the business of regulating abortions.. the state (all 50 of them) can decide for themselves how to regulate abortions.. all states will have abortions but regulated like they want..
