The Republicans have appointed 6 of the 9 Supreme Court Justices, why not overturn Roe v Wade?

Question

what better conditions could you ask for?

Answer 1

If you want a freaking riot on your hands, go ahead and advocate for it.  By the way, we have three branches of government.  Congress will not allow that.

Answer 2

They won't touch it because they have daughters and gran daughters who their family have to sneak under the cloak of darkness to have their babies aborted. It would be hypocritical.

Answer 3

Because as I have said before it's a pretty mute point... /and/ even though I am not "pro-choice" (in the since that this term is used for this purpose) or pro-abortion... having abortions in a doctors office is better than a woman having one in the back alley with a rusty coat hanger... and most that are against also realize this... :/

Besides women wouldn't need abortions if they took better precautions and thought about the consequences of their actions before they did it... :/

Answer 4

Well one problem is that no state wants to challenge it.  South Dakota passed a law banning abortions a while back, just in order to challenge Roe, but it was repealed in a referendum before the courts could get to it.  

Also, lower courts are obligated to uphold Roe, and the Supreme Court doesn't like to revisit its recent decisions.
