is what is striking me as the most the degrading line, at least tonight. Each time I read it I go more out of my mind. The lack of logic and the overflowing of stupidity just does not stop infuriating me. These are brain bound losers of the highest order.
From Justice Alitos majority decision:
These attempts to justify abortion through appeals to a broader right to autonomy and to define ones concept of existence prove too much. Casey, 505 U. S., at 851. Those criteria, at a high level of generality, could license fundamental rights to illicit drug use, prostitution, and the like. See Compassion in Dying v. Washington, 85 F. 3d 1440, 1444 (CA9 1996) (OScannlain, J., dissenting from denial of rehearing en banc). None of these rights has any claim to being deeply rooted in history. Id., at 1440, 1445.
Here is the link to the entire decision and the dissents. Which are elegant and intelligent.
