Mississippi has reportedly filed a new brief with the Supreme Court on a case which has the potential to challenge the landmark ruling ‘Roe vs Wade’ for the first time in decades.

As National Review reports:

On Thursday afternoon, Mississippi attorney general Lynn Fitch filed a brief in the most important Supreme Court abortion case in three decades. 

In the brief defending the constitutionality of Mississippi’s law prohibiting abortions after 15 weeks of gestation (with exceptions for when the life or physical health of the mother is endangered and in cases of severe fetal abnormalities that would prove fatal to the child), Attorney General Fitch argues that the Supreme Court’s Roe and Casey decisions should be overturned and state legislatures should be allowed to pass laws protecting the lives of human beings in the womb.

If the Court isn’t willing to allow legislatures to pass any rational law protecting the lives of unborn children, the attorney general argues, the Supreme Court should at the very least reject the “unworkable” and “arbitrary” line banning any prohibition on abortion before viability.  

“Overruling Roe and Casey makes resolution of this case straightforward,” the brief states. “The Mississippi law here prohibits abortions after 15 weeks’ gestation, with exceptions for medical emergency or severe fetal abnormality. That law rationally furthers valid interests in protecting unborn life, women’s health, and the medical profession’s integrity. It is therefore constitutional. If this Court does not overrule Roe and Casey’s heightened-scrutiny regime outright, it should at minimum hold that there is no pre-viability barrier to state prohibitions on abortion and uphold Mississippi’s law.”

The brief will be a test of the court’s six conservatives, three of whom were appointed by former President Trump. Will they live up to their past statements or submit to the fashionable wishes of liberals once again?

  1. You females no longer have the brains to use contraceptives. We will be taking your vote away from you.

    1. I agree. Women have embraced lifestyles that will expose them to unwanted pregnancy, which automatically translates to government dependency, or government funded abortions (And don’t believe for one second that our taxes have not already paid for these procedures.) This ‘benefit’ is a key component of a liberal campaign to enjoin women within their dependent constituency.

      1. It’s also up to men. A package of head gaskets doesn’t cost much. I believe that both men and women share responsibility to prevent unwanted pregnancies.

    2. China and Russia will be taking our votes away; will actually, there mostly likely will not be any more elections once they arrive on our shores..

    3. Whoa….. as much as I hate abortions I take umbrage at your statement. Why don’t you males have the brains to use a contraceptive? You both need to be responsible even though the female is the one that suffers the most.

      1. My girlfriend told me a joke. When she resisted my attempts to have sex, she said the best way to prevent unwanted pregnancies is to take aspirin. The she added, put an aspirin between your knees and don’t let it drop. Women are the ones who get pregnant. If you haven’t noticed, many women flaunt their attributes to entice men to crave their sexual favors. So you can’t blame men for doing what comes natural. Indeed, the woman should insist upon protection, but as we’re beginning to notice, many of those women still have to endure the vagaries of unprotected sex. In days of old, there was a female option called “Abstinence”. Currently, women have the option of claiming rape, and there are more ways than that to inhibit the male drive, including women demanding a wedding ring before sex. (That’s how my wife snagged me…)

  2. We need to expand abortion criteria. In the case of Numb Nuts, the trimester limit to authorize the procedure should be adjusted to the 240th.

  3. GOD should overturn Roe vs Wade. Reward abortionists and supporters with painful, terminal incurable disease. They take lives from voiceless innocent infants. WE THE PEOPLE WILL PROTECT THOSE LIVES AND PUNISH MURDERERS AND DISMEMBERERS

    1. Not to mention abortion clinics chopping those kids into pieces and selling their parts on the black market. Between the wars they orchestrate, abortions, rioting, drugs and the Clinton hit lists, it seems liberals are well acquainted with the Grim Reaper.

  4. Roe vs Wade was based on the false belief and false science that a baby was not a living being at conception. Science has long since debunked that notion. Science now declares that life starts at conception. To use the left’s mantra ” my body my choice ” the constitution states all people have the right of life , liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Based on this if a woman chooses to live a life which allows for pregnancy then if she gets pregnant the baby must be protected and allowed to have its life. Birth control is free and able to be acquired by all who are having consental sex. So there is no logical excuse. Time for this law to be reset to the science and constitutional requirements we as a 1st world society claim to live by. The greatest example of oppression is the murder of the weakest in our society.

    1. Those issues aside, women don’t realize they’re marginalizing the very reason they exist. Since the world needs depopulating, according to liberals, then girls would be the first to go. I’m surprised the Supreme Court ruled against a female draft. The way liberals start and protract conflicts, that would be a pretty effective means to get rid of them. (Another liberal example would be China. Their One-Child depopulation scheme prompted women to drown their female newborns in a bucket of water.)

  5. LISTEN UP…..GOD is Against ABORTIONS. HE is PRO LIFE. HE is a CONSERVATIVE. HE is PRO TRUMP. HE is on the REPUBLICANS Side. From SamuraiQueen…GOD’S ADOPTED DAUGHTER….Forever. 😄😄😄

    1. God made women to attract males, engage in sexual intercourse, conceive, gestate, birth, feed and nurture offspring. Everything else entails liberal cultural dysfunctional agendas.

  6. ACLU is a ‘name only’ subversive organization to destroy the Constitution.
    Look for lots of support from the Vatican on this. NO second amendment thing by the ACLU EVER.. Look for lots of attempts to overturn the Roe v Wade, which is what the CATHOLIC traitors want. The Constitution must be destroyed in order to destroy the USA.

    1. Hmm. I call that organization the ACLJew. Mainly because you see that tribe functioning prominently in their activities.

  7. CATHOLICS that call themselves ‘r’ do not like Roe v Wade. CATHOLICS that call themselves d’ do not like guns…….. CATHOLICS are NOT Americans, they are CATHOLICS…….Vote for ANY CATHOLIC and you vote for a traitor and failure forever.

  8. CATHOLICS that call themselves ‘r’ do not like Roe v Wade. CATHOLICS that call themselves d’ do not like guns…….. CATHOLICS are NOT Americans, they are CATHOLICS……. There are a billion illiterate “C” scum down South of the USA. The real number of ILLEGAL ALIEN “C” INVADERS according to Pelosi (Catholic traitor) is north of 60 million. Vote for ANY “C” and you vote for proven failure of a thousand years.

  9. Watch for the smoke screen…. CATHOLICS that call themselves ‘r’ do not like Roe v Wade. CATHOLICS that call themselves d’ do not like guns…….. CATHOLICS are NOT Americans, they are CATHOLICS…….Vote for ANY CATHOLIC and you vote for a traitor and failure forever.

  10. Dear obsessive Alfie, with all due respect:
     
    Alfie is a TROLL
    Has something up his HOLE
    His reason’s GONE
    Don’t egg him ON
    Or he’ll be on a ROLL!

  11. promiscuity is the problem Abortionists lurk around Colleges encouraging young girls to sleep around and get pregnant then these blood suckers get teh baby for profit purposes. Abortion should only be between parents, your Church and Doctor, And if a family lose a child because of a medical problem, you give the baby a decent burial not PP for profit.

    1. Promiscuity is a deceptive term. Women have sexual proclivities, and they crave sexual activities as much as men. Look at any collection of women at parties, or around pools and beaches, or watch them shop for underwear. (My wife has an annoying habit of handing me her purse as she tries our various undergarments.) They exude sexual appeal, and when they’re inebriated, they practically throw themselves at men. Even little girls know intrinsically what their ‘role’ is with regard to their sexual organs. (They’re now being taught about abortions and homosexuality at tender ages..) One term describing females is “Sirens”. Look that up. I agree that a floozy can more trouble than women who apply their ‘talents’ with caution, but we must face the fact that women are born to be mothers, nurturers and innately empathetic.

  12. Why should babies have to die because women don’t either know how to use contraceptives or are too lazy to use contraceptives or just don’t care that because of their actions an innocent human being has to lose its life. Really, I want to know why.

  13. Emotions aside. Where in the Constitution does it cover abortion, one way or the other? It doesn’t. So therefore was it an unconstitutional ruling? The SCOTUS makes a lot of rulings. if you read the Constitution some of them should not have even been presented, much less ruled upon. From my vantage point, a lot of rulings are not made because of law or the Constitution, but because of politics.
