If you can convince me that the unborn individual is not a living human then I'd be willing to entertain debate.
That's impossible without ascertaining when the human spirit is implanted in the little person. Before that, they're no more than a basic form of life.
You, me, anyone reading this are no more than clumps of cells.
But we all have the human spirit/soul inhabiting and controlling our bodies.
What nobody knows is when that human spirit arrives in the unborn life-form, making him/her a human.

So with Roe vs Wade overturned do the previous laws that existed in each individual state before Roe v. Wade get reinstated? Some states may find out they still have total bans in place once the new ruling is published.

Good.
I don't think it should be a Constitutional right to kill unborn humans.

200 people have spontaneously gathered outside the Supreme Court to protest the leaked decision to overturn Roe
Didn't take long.

Whether you're celebrating or mourning this draft decision, I feel the leak is the real historical event.
This is more than just writing on the wall. With the court now being directly politicized, we are clearly moving into the third act of this tragedy we call home.
"The point here is not whether you think Roe should or should not be overturned.
Irrelevant.
This is an egregious attack on yet another Constitutionally-based institution -- the Supreme Court, the ultimate arbiter of many serious issues.
The justices have relied on their staff to uphold strict confidentiality so that debate and discussion among the justices could take place.
Some outraged Karen/progressive/soyboy/oppressed subgroup clerk who disagrees with the (((tentative))) opinion took it upon him/her/itself to overturn centuries of decorum to leak this because......um, not sure why, other than to cause chaos.
It is yet another assault on our traditions and institutions. No more and no less than burning down the cities, rigging elections, assassinating leaders.
The last scintilla of respect for anything of our founding has finally evaporated.
Death knell for constitutional freedom."
