If Roe v Wade is overturned, then (hopefully) abortion law will be decided by individual states.
I'm against abortion, but with exceptions, and I believe that in the first trimester it has to ultimately be up to the woman that's pregnant to decide if her personal situation justifies an exception.
Most people (though maybe not most people here) believe that there are situations were an abortion is justified - most often when rape is involved or when severe genetic defects are identified. And in the first trimester I don't think the government should be involved in allowing or disallowing abortions that fall into those categories. Besides the fact that it's a deeply personal matter, there are some domestic abuse situations where an accusation of rape would put a woman's life in danger - and we also don't want to create an environment where a woman might be tempted to make a rape accusation in order to abort.
It would get messy - and imho, it's none of the government's business.
And on top of all of that, I'm afraid that the movement to totally ban abortion is pushing people away from seeing the truth about what's happening with lockdowns, vaccines, human trafficking, and all of the other things that people here care about.
By being absolutely against abortion - with no exceptions, I think that some people are buying into the efforts to divide us, and unfortunately that position is being used by people on the left to justify the horrific idea that any restrictions on abortion are just the first step toward a total ban with no exceptions.

if the job of the government doesnt include protecting innocent life, what is its job in the first place?
What would Jesus do?
