    Well, 14 states currently ban abortion. I am not a woman, but if I was and of child-bearing age, I would move out in a hurry.

    I know it’s easier said than done for a lot of folks for a lot of reasons, but besides the risk of having to carry out a pregnancy I did not want for whatever reason, and having to go through that particular hell, I would be ashamed to live in a state that treats women like that.

      Suggesting all women flee Everytime a law is passed that doesn’t work for us is short sighted. I’m not leaving my entire support system on the chance I get pregnant. First off, we’re trying to get the laws changed. We’re voting, and getting new abortion guidelines on the ballots. Second, yes, all women in my state should have a little vacation fund in case they want to visit the North in a hurry. A six week ban is ridiculous.

      Agreed. And it’s why I said this is the type of America Trump wants. As long as pregnancies are forced- people will stop at no end to unload the burden on others in any way they can. Which would mean up to and/or including selling their babies illegally.
