- catalyst5a 4y agoFair enough. I’m aware of her comments on Roe vs. Wade, I just didn’t think it was relevant. She was a liberal justice who was replaced with a conservative justice. I’m curious what her stance would be if she was still on the court. Despite her comments, I don’t believe she would have overturned it.

The fact that something can be unconstitutional does not mean the same thing is illegal. It is not of federal jurisdiction to set the precedent on the matter. Every pro-abortionist seems to casually brush aside the fact that this has more to do with federal power than abortion
