Frustrating that the most extreme elements on both sides are the ones that actually get their policies implemented on this issue (Vermont is the other extreme).

6 weeks is a total ban.

Plus it encourages citizens to sue other citizens with a bounty of at least 10k ... this is absurd. How does some random person have standing to sue another random person?

Justice Alito sat on this.

The far right are always screaming a D wants to take your guns away. Far left scream a R wants to abolish abortion.

We always "that wont happen, dont worry about some extreme hypothetical used to scare voters" ...

Well it happened.

Having a hard time not thinking bad thoughts about the religious right.

America is not supposed to be a therocracy. Religious political activism is not cool.

I support 18 week but yes I agree - 6 weeks is effectively a total ban.

Not only do random citizens get a $10k reward the accused have to pay their legal fees. There is no reciprocity if you are wrongly accused.
