If Roe V Wade is overturned?

If the court were to hear a case, or hear the origional women that Roe V Wade is based on case...and decided to overturn thier decision...What would happen?

Well obviously, it would go back to the states to make laws on. This is what I think would happen...

3-5 states would have what it is now. Unlimited abortions with out any exceptions. (those that are currently with 20% or less that are pro life
5-7 states would out law abortions out right...and they would be illegal all around. (those with currently the 50% or higher that are pro-life
and the rest...that have between 20-50% that are pro-life would see limitations put on abortion. such as in the case of rape, incest, mothers health.

Women could still drive to get abortions in those 3-5 states. But the limitations would at least be a start in the right direction.

To me, that does not seem so bad. I know this will not end abortion, but it is a great start. Education is what will end this act. Every women who has an abortion should have to have counceling and an ultrasound done to show her excatly what she is killing. That too would help limit abortions. They should be given the truth about the risk to future children and to thier own health by having an abortion. The risk of breast cancer and future miscarriages and stillbirths.

And all of this is just a start. But if Roe V Wade is overturned by our new court...we are at least taking a step in the right direction.
