Women can get abortion pills by mail

It is ridiculous. I would like to see an "I am Spartacus" moment, where at an appointed date and time, all of us who've had abortions, IUDs, or who've used plan B turn ourselves in for "murder" at state courthouses. Call their bluff. There's no statute of limitations on murder, so there would be crowds of elderly women and teenagers. Invite the media.

@WTF Vax Up I’ll show. I can self report for smoking pot before legalization. Act stupid and eat up their time.

That is true, and hopefully there will be a huge backlash in November against such extremism. I am just trying to get the word out that at this time in most red states, women have safe options other than carrying an unwanted pregnancy to term. Also many blue city mayors and prosecutors are saying they will not enforce state laws criminalizing abortion, which will force red states to create abortion crimes divisions in their state police and state AG offices.

@Charon the Ferryman exactly!

@Dip Dibbler I question that you thought it through. Because the pubs would simply do the same thing back. Cut to the chase: if you’re going to do that, why not debate the necessity of a Supreme Court to start with?

@TaxTheChurches

Yah ok whatever.

Yes the thought had occurred to me that "turn about is fair play". I'm thinking of it In terms of buying time since the SCOTUS and GOP are moving fast and overtly to solidify as many right-wing oppressive agendas as possible. Using this as a temp hobbling of their RW aggressive march to theocracy, seemed to me a reasonable measure until some semblance of a nation of laws rather than a theocracy or corporatocracy is the functioning purpose of the court.

But I am not paid or asked to provide my opinion on national legal issues while the people suggesting an expansion of the court are. So my question remains why the experts recommend the court's expansion yet the President doesn't? This question about the need for a supreme court is not a visible topic of discussion. The supreme court exists!

The Supreme court is not going to disappear overnight. You have to consider implementing stop-gap measures in my inexpert opinion. I have stated my question several times and you want to divert to asking "Why even have a court". Who is going to abolish or defang a supposedly impartial court that has somewhat become a partisan court? You?

This may not be the same reason the many pundits and political experts are calling for an expansion of the supreme court. I am assuming that many if not all legal experts are more knowledgeable than I. I am not a legal expert by any measure but I can tell you RW ideology running the supreme court is not my idea of Justice or representative of the will of the people or a neutral court. In terms of democracy, neither the electoral college nor the supreme court fit into the idea of participatory governance when they can and have acted and made decisions that are not the will of the majority. That's an oxy-moron; A non sequitur when applied to a democracy.

GOP congressmen have been obstructionist in choosing court members. It's been in-your-face trickery and bureaucratic BS that is not interested in fair play. The GOP has been shitty pack of dirty pool players and manipulated the court for it' own purposes.

As the final arbiter of the law, the Court is charged with ensuring the American people the promise of equal justice under law and, thereby, also functions as guardian and interpreter of the Constitution.

The supreme court has failed in many areas due to the historically racist and imperialistic body that it is part of. People may need authoritative unbiased experts in some areas. I don't know! All I have witnessed is people pretending to work for justice and getting a big paycheck in the process. I can tell you from experience that courts are not always fair. The whole system is priestcraft of wannabe aristocrat mini dictators dressed in black robes. They are the deciders of societies BS with their own secret lingo/language and values. I see the court as an idea to establish order rather than encouraging chaos and anarchy. When the court is no longer neutral, then it becomes a tool of one party or another and has failed in its intended purpose.

So yah.. go ahead and blow up the supreme court and electoral college. My give-a-fuk is as broken as the phony justice system is. Let the whole nation descend into chaos and anarchy and disintegrate into tyrants and roving bands of savage AR Toting Nazi psychopaths. Not much of it serves me personally anyway.

I was thinking if we want to salvage and rebuild something functional after the reign of criminal white collar politicians and corporations, if we want a civil, fair, and just system to be (re)established and protected from the political predators in our midst, the corrupting forces need to be muzzl
