44. My opinion is that the Fourth covers a woman's right to control her own body, thus abortion is her choice.

Making a law against women that is solely based on any particular religious belief is not constitutional. It should be reinstated right now, and all states' laws infringing upon a woman's right to choose are therefore repealed. Any doctor who let's a woman suffer, even die, because they fear for themselves should be stripped of their license and imprisoned for murder, or attempted murder.

Why people aren't in the streets over this, instead of worrying about Trump's MAGA idiots is beyond me. Some good lawyer should be appealing the decision on the grounds of separation of church and state. We are a secular country, no matter how hard some people argue we aren't. We are not a nation found on the Bible, the founding fathers made that clear. We follow democratic principles, and there's no religion in those.
