Well, yeah, kind of like people calling themselves "pro-choice" instead of pro-abortion. Neither side wants to face up to the harsh reality it seems.
After all these are people that don't care about others as long as they can force they sick beliefs on others while happily destroying abortion clinics and assassinate doctors that have been doing abortions. So much for being pro-life.
You seem to have a very warped view of the other side.

So you dispute that there are attacks on clinics where there are abortations done or other related facilities and even people related to abortion, like doctors?

Still protests that go on there. Still rooms that are shielded to bullets to prepare their patients to head into. That's a reality.

Good advice that I already follow. He is not worth wasting time on.

True, but do you really think the hierarchy of power doesn't shield them in places like Alabama?

I mean, let's be fair here. I could honestly see how some right of center of people might think this is just a Democrat lying to paint a narrative. It's what happens in a post-internet, post-9/11 world, and perhaps someone is lying, figures we gotta use desperate measures to beat the enemy, but at the same time, surely you must agree it's not that hard for us to see why this might be the case? It just confirms in our minds what we, as left of center, already knew.

One "flimsy excuse" to overrule Roe v Wade is by pointing out that the constitutional right to privacy isn't in the constitution. :)

That's a problem with rule by decree that the left doesn't seem to get. When you switch decreeers, you can get new laws. Welcome to one reason for strict constructionalism, instead of allowing the Supreme Court to just make shit up.

What I dispute is that this is in any way representative of the anti-abortion side. Wouldn't have thought I'd have to explain that to you of all people.
