Pro Life and Pro Choice

The Constitution makes no reference to abortion, and no such right is implicitly protected by any constitutional provision. Clearly, the recent Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision was a landmark and long overdue.

However, those who believe in a woman’s right to choose should take heart. The option of being pro choice is still very much alive. To wit: A woman can still choose whether or not to have sex with this individual or that one. She can still choose whether or not to use birth control. And, if she chooses poorly on the first two choices and becomes pregnant, she can still choose whether or not to keep the baby or put it up for adoption.

After the recent Supreme Court decision, women have not lost the right to choose anything. Think about it
