Abortion is a human right. A pandemic doesn't change that

Texas abortion bill fails amid chaos

(CNN)Access to abortion is an essential service and a fundamental human right. Period. The denial of it, including in times of global crisis like the Covid-19 pandemic, constitutes cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment.

In the United States, the Trump administration's colossal failure to help keep people healthy and to slow the pandemic-driven implosion of the economy shouldn't come as a surprise to much of the public. He has delayed acknowledging the severity of Covid-19, prematurely hinted at an end to social distancing and over the course of his term in office, attempted to slash funding for the WHO, the CDC, and other preparedness agencies that are tasked with the monitoring of such epidemics. The list goes on and on.
But even as some states are stepping up in heroic ways where the federal government has fallen short, several states - Mississippi, Ohio, Texas and Oklahoma - have moved to limit abortion as a part of their responses to the coronavirus threat.

Abortion is NOT a human right, it is genocide.  The most defenseless humans on the planet are the unborn.  Human, every last cell of them.

The same person that supposedly inspired Adolph Hitler with the Final Solution regarding the Jews is the same person that founded Planned Parenthood, whose mission was to control the growth of what she deemed undesirables, people of color, Catholics, Jews and the poor.  Margaret Sanger is certainly one of the most evil mankind has ever produced. 

Seven lying POSs that sat on the Supreme Court decided to murder 60 million and counting.  They were NOT elected, and they had no right to make that decision.  It should never be the Supreme Court to create and make policy.  That is the legislative branch's responsibility, along with the executive branch, which signs it into law.  What the Supreme Court did should be reversed.  I believe it will be in the not too distant future.

Despite being law for nearly 50 years, if the American people voted in a referendum, the majority would vote against abortion today.  Abortion is genocide.  We as a nation have now murdered ten times what Hitler did with the Jews.

I agree and would love to live to see Roe overturned. Slavery was law here for a long time, too, and we got rid of that.

The US Supreme Court has overturned its own precedents 236 times during its 229 years of existence.

It is only a matter of time. 

A couple hundred years ago, we burnt witches at the stake in this country.

We had slavery for over 150 years, as well as indentured servants.

We slaughtered millions of native Americans through the years.

We had children working hard labor for long hours in horrible working conditions just over 100 years ago.

There are many atrocities we embraced as a nation, and we dispensed with them.  Seven lying POS(not elected) on the Supreme Court condemned 60 million and counting to death with mass genocide.  It was the single worst day in the history of the USA.  It made us no different than the former USSR.
