Amazing Women!!

I can't believe the risks these woman took back in the day! WOW!!! And now here we are back to girls and women dying with coat hangers and on butchers tables!! As I've said Before.. YOUR GOD is NOT EVERYONES GOD!!! This is NOT something that Men get to decide on (A Woman's Body)!!

If Men had to give birth, the human race would have went extinct!!! And alot of girls and women die during pregnancy, while giving birth, after pregnancy. And Now even if you were RAPED, your just Forced to have a Baby to Remind you for the Rest of Your life!!

I am Pro-choice and against late stage abortion (unless the woman's life is in danger). I prefer that there be easier and free birth control to any girl or woman and access to Plan B pills. But even birth control is NoT 100% effective, sadly. And the Rich People will still be getting their abortions, and many of the men who pulled down Roe v Wade, will be paying for their mistresses, or girlfriend, or daughters abortions. But the poor women, the rape victims, the incest victims are the ones whom will suffer, along with alot of children brought into this world, unwanted, put into overflowing orphanages, with every 10% of US births being born addicted to drugs and suffering the HORROR of withdrawal. They will be abused, raped, killed, kidnapped, tortured, suffer mental illness and if they are lucky enough to make it to elementary school age, they will have to learn how to dodge bullets in class thanks to the same people who are pulling down Row v WADE! :O

Even Ireland finally realized that they needed to allow for abortion rights. And here goes the USA back to the DARK AGES!!! I think Women will start migrating away from the USA in the future.

We NEED More Janes!!! :(

On the very day that Roe v. Wade is officially overturned...

Last night I watched "The Janes" (2022 release; 101 min), and per the usual, it was my intent to write up a review the next morning, meaning today. While it had been rumored for months, little did I know that indeed the Supreme Court would officially overrule Roe v. Wade today (more on that later).

As to "The Janes", co-directed by Emma Pildes and Oscar-nominated Tia Lessin, we meet the brave women in Chicago who in the late 60s stood up for women's medical and reproductive rights, and seeing that desperate women would do desperate things, these "Janes" organized an underground network of abortion counselors and providers, at great personal risk. The film makers were able to interview so many of the original Janes all these years later, and their stories continue to resonate. The documentary contains plenty of terrific archive footage of what Chicago was like in the late 60s. All in all, this is well worth checking out, and of course the timing of its recent release could not be more on point for obvious reasons. "The Janes" is now streaming on HBO Max, and if you have any interest in gender equality issues, I'd readily suggest you check this out and draw your own conclusion.

As to today's ruling by the Supreme Court, shame on all of them. American exceptionalism? More like America being the laughing stock of the Western world (the ONLY Western country where abortion rights are not guaranteed). Of course, I always tell people that any country gets the politicians they deserve. You elect a crook and a thug like Trump, and this is what it leads to, and sadly yet more such thuggery may be coming. Today is a very sad and dark day in this country's history, much like the January 6 insurrection and all that that entails. In 20-30-40 years from now, people will look back at this and say "what in the world were they thinking back then???".

Is that a symbol for getting fisted uterus-deep by a cuffed miscreant (probably in da ghetto)?

all we can do is laugh as the western world collapses like the roman empire and for the same reasons.

"The consequence of all this is lots of physically abused children born to resentful parents, and overcrowded 'hell orphanages' that we haven't seen since the 1800's." - right, I guess all the people that had a childhood like that wish they were dead...cuz that's much better......oh nevermind they don't even get the choice. Grow up mouth breather.

@mikeami - "My personal opinion is don't force something on someone your not willing to take on yourself. " - so you're saying that the person that gets an abortion should be aborted right?

I imagine this movie's IMDB review would be WAY higher if haters didn't bring it down without even seeing it, and for that reason alone I'm going to watch it. My personal opinion is don't force something on someone your not willing to take on yourself. The consequence of all this is lots of physically abused children born to resentful parents, and overcrowded 'hell orphanages' that we haven't seen since the 1800's.

@jonnyboy Whatcha mean? You mean human beings' got x-ray vision and are capable of telling a fetus (for instance) is deformed enough to be aborted? Or do you just deem a "human being" merely an animal living by somoe basic animalistic instincts?

This is hilarious. None of these "pro-abortionists" will have a chance to inseminate anyone, or are too obese to bear. Fetus deformities and rape aside (as valid reasons to maybe support abortion), this is why they're angry the most.

What a stoopid comments by whom I believe people from the U.S. Abortion is a health and social problem, it has nothing to do with left and right wings of politics. However, the U.S. citizens are so !diotic, so they only see things based on political ideology. What a nation of joke!

@tex999: Typical response, don't think like me, you're a leftie. As a rational thinker i hate politics and choose to not be associated with it. Something your tiny little brain that needs to categorize everything is probably too small for.

Strange how people that don't care for anyone that doesn't think excactly like them care so much for unborn children of people they never met. I smell narcissism. @glasgowjohn: You rather have that important operation canceled because hospitals are full of idiots like you? You can try try to fight the "government" all your life if you want, in the end it will still be there, no matter how much of a crusader you think you are. That again, is narcissism. You think you belong to this elite group of people all enlightened on a holy war for truth, but in the end you're just like the rest of us, just a little d*mber.
