According to the Boston Globe, experts are mixed about the ultimate fate of Roe v. Wade. Generally, speaking, that’s the treatment the latest travesty is getting from the media. It’s strange how often experts can’t see the obvious.
There are two possible fates for Roe.
The Court may outright reverse itself, and even go so far as to declare that every sperm is sacred.
But that’s not likely. The court will do as it has signaled. It will not outright reverse Roe, it will simply give a green light to every restrictive law passed by every red state. It has been obvious for some time that is where we’ve been heading. The effect, of course, will be the same in every state that chooses to outlaw abortion.
At least Susan Collins will be able to say that she was right: that Kavanaugh did not vote to reverse Roe. Voting to gut it is just not the same, after all.
