Firstly, the 2nd amendment.... was an AMENDMENT to the constitution. Second, the right of abortion was determined from incorporation of other guaranteed rights (here, the right to privacy). Please either brush up on your undergrad political science course materials or review summaries of decisions via the Library of Congress.
Coming poorly equipped to these arguments shows much more about the individual than their interpretation of constitutionality.
- vinyl7 4y ago> Second, the right of abortion was determined from incorporation of other guaranteed rights (here, the right to privacy) Correct, and it was a very unstable way to enable abortions. It has always been under threat of being over turned because it was a weak argument. Even RBG said that it was weak.

- boston_clone 4y agoYeah, I've see a few other people parroting the "RGB even said..." thing, but what's your point? The rights to privacy and bodily autonomy are not nascent concepts in the course of this country's establishment of civil liberties, and today's ruling was a disgusting application of the Supreme Court's power.
- bilvar 4y agoExactly. If you want it as a law then work with the appropriate people who operate through the appropriate channels to make it a law. Don't try to circumvent the process by using a different body that is not meant to legislate.
- boston_clone 4y agoI'm not sure what you mean - make what a law?
