Yeah, I think that's probably right. I was was already aware that before Roe, abortion was only legal on a handful of states (including New York). However, I recently read in the NYT that New York even came close to repealing its abortion law a year or so before Roe. It only survived because of the governor's veto. The court's actions, especially when so poorly-reasoned, were bound to create a strong backlash, and the ones that could persevere long enough to counter such an undemocratic decision we're going to have the strongest opposite polarization to the court. And then that backlash created it's own polarized backlash. Now the backlashes reinforce each other.
