Supreme Court Overrules Roe v. Wade in Dobbs Decision – Returns Abortion to State Lawmakers:

The Supreme Court overruled Roe v. Wade on Friday, holding in the Dobbs case that the Constitution does not include a right to abortion and returning the issue of abortion laws and regulations to state legislatures.

Roe was handed down in 1973 in a 7-2 decision, holding that the U.S. Constitution includes a constitutional right to abortion, despite the fact that abortion is not found in the text, structure, or history of the Constitution, and the nation went more than 180 years without ever noticing it existed. It has been one of the most divisive legal issues in American history.

An early draft of Alito’s opinion leaked in May, the first such leak of a full opinion in the 233-year history of the Supreme Court, leading the left to violent protests, including destroying a pro-life center in Wisconsin, vandalizing churches, and threatening protests at the home of conservatives justices in violation of federal law.

These threats have culminated in what was almost an assassination attempt of Justice Brett Kavanaugh, which went seemingly unnoticed by President Joe Biden – who did not speak out to condemn it – and has led to rapid action on a new federal law to protect the justices. The court majority evidently stood firm against the threats and public pressure, overruling Roe and the later revision of Roe in 1992, Planned Parenthood v. Casey.

With Roe overruled, the issue of abortion now goes back to the states to pass whatever restrictions on abortions the voters of each state choose to adopt.

Amir Tsarfati:

The lives of hundreds of thousands of unborn babies were saved today! I am with tears of joy! SCOTUS chose life!  “I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live.” (Deuteronomy 30:19)
..................................

The opposite of pro-LIFE is pro-DEATH. English made simple!
..................................

I see progressive liberal American Jewish people on social media claiming that Judaism is supporting abortions. That’s rubbish! Conservative Jews don’t do that. In life-threatening situations maybe but not just as a choice of a woman cause a baby isn’t what she wants to have at this point of her life!
The political agenda is not a religious one!
The fight for the unborn isn’t a religious one only. It’s the duty of a society that condemns any killing of the innocent!

Yes, like Amir, I too have seen "Jewish" people on social media claiming that it's perfectly fine for Jewish women to have abortions and that being Pro-Life is just a silly Christian idea.

Once I forwarded an anti-abortion post on Facebook, and the rancor I got in return from my friends was unbelievable.

Also, I have been horrified by the alphabet TV news agencies' one-sided coverage of this issue.  They like to show only the abortion advocates.  They go on and on that, if you are pro-life you are hurting (or inconveniencing) women.  No mention of the baby.

They claim that abortion is a Constitutional right when nowhere in the Constitution is it even mentioned.

Call me an old curmudgeon or grumpy old cynic, but I don't see SCOTUS as being either heroes or villains.  They are opportunists who simply removed what had wasted their resources and was stuck in their craw back in 1973 by equally opportunistic predecessors -- all unbiased men of course, unswayed by 1973 politics.

Realistically, Democrat state legislators are elated not to suffer federal interference nor risk appeals any more, despite their clamor about this "bad decision."
