Roe vs. Wade overturned

[GeauxHomeLittleD]

I noticed that in KY and TN, and perhaps soon WV, abortion is illegal now or else heavily regulated - I'm not sure which. In VA, it is not, nor has it ever been. So what I expect to see is a massive influx of panicky teenagers from those areas who never learned to keep their knees together (parents fault, I'm guessing) into VA to take advantage of the lack of abortion laws here. Because of that circumstance, I have no doubt that congress will soon make a reaching attempt to legalize abortion nationwide under the "interstate commerce clause" like they did with civil rights and are still trying to do to infringe the Second Amendment.

Nah, it ain't over, not by  longshot. This ruling just allows the debate to begin.

I think at this point that Buchanan County, VA, would be a great place for ballard Healthcare to set up an abortion mill so they can rake in the bucks, because Buchanan County borders both KY and WV. Lee County would be another good choice for another mill, because it borders both KY and TN. This could be turned into a financial boon for alert healthcare companies, if they can get set up before Planned Parenthood moves in to those places. maybe even if PP does move in. Folks around here are not big on eugenics or black genocide, the very foundations of Planned Parenthood, so any PP facilities set up around here might not last long. Ballard health, on the other hand, has the respect of a lot of folks around here, so they already have their foot in the door, if they just strike while the iron is hot.

I'm not really sure about the abortion laws in Kentucky, though I do know our AG and Planned Parenthood are constantly battling it out over our one tiny abortion clinic here in the 'Ville. In the state I moved here from (Texas) the cut off time is 12 weeks- which in my opinion is plenty of time to do what you feel you need to do. At 12 weeks is usually when "fluttering" begins and in my opinion once you can feel it moving it is no longer just a cluster of cells.

I understand that women need to do what they feel is right for them at the time but I wish that if they are determined to have an abortion maybe somebody should tell them how much it will effect them later in life- especially once they decide to give birth to a child, hold it in their arms and feel that joy... then slowly feel the rise of horror at what they did and have to live with that for the rest of their lives.

I agree with you that a smart investor would open a clinic right across the state line. The marijuana dispensaries do and make a killing off of people crossing the border from "illegal" states. Stands to reason abortion clinics would as well.
