Abortion is the Second Amendment for Angry, Feminist White Women

Topic: Perspective

Unless you were inside a cave or sunning yourself on an uninhabited beach in the South Pacific yesterday, you’ve probably heard the news about the Arizona Supreme Court’s abortion ruling, which affirms a pre-statehood law that criminalizes abortion and punishes providers who provide them unless the procedure is done to save the prospective mother’s life.

The ruling has caused everyone to rush out to give a hasty opinion, always a mistake, and has already caused substantial uproar in Republican circles, pitting the most pro-life against those who are taking a more calculated approach to the ruling.  It has also activated the legions of ranting, raving feminists who have now pledged to march the streets with torches and pitchforks until every last Republican has been unseated and every full-term baby runs the risk of having his or her brains sucked out with a vacuum right up until the moment of landing in the doctor’s hands in that cold delivery room.

Considering this decision, I honestly don’t envy candidates for statewide office in hotly contested races, and I certainly don’t envy President Trump.  It is easy to fault clearly pro-life Republican candidates for getting Jeffersonian with the delegation language and trying to take a position that satisfies pro-life activists and Christians but also disarms the rage of the irreligious, middle-of-the-road voter who thinks he needs to protect reproductive rights; however, it can be argued that the greater good comes from having Trump, or Kari Lake, in office to repel imminent threats to the survival of the United States, which is a task made more difficult than it must be when tens of thousands of votes in a state could flip based on a deliberately timed court decision these candidates didn’t ask to have made.  That is me speaking pragmatically only.

Now, let’s get to the political side of this.  I do believe, as does radio host Garret Lewis, that Arizona’s Supreme Court is playing politics and chumming the waters to get a sleepy, lethargic, and shrinking Democrat base interested in voting for Joe Biden and those down ticket from him this fall.  Remember, even stolen elections are made up of both real and fraudulent ballots.  If 200,000 living, breathing Biden voters don’t show up in 2020, and Trump gets 200,000 more votes, then there will be a need for almost 400,000 more fraudulent ballots than they had last time (362,143 by my estimate) if they wish to keep Arizona’s 11 electoral votes with Biden, which is not likely to be remotely possible given the exposure of Arizona’s corrupt elections, and the pressure on entities like the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors.

This decision speaks to the legions of actual Biden voters who no longer give a damn if he stays in office or not.  Republicans have seen this play out over and over again – a judge makes a decision restricting or threatening Second Amendment rights, and it doesn’t matter who is on the ballot for governor or president on the Republican side – that candidate is getting those conservative votes.  I’m still a little confused about the outrage, because it sounds to me like the pre-statehood law still gives abortion activists what they have always lobbied for – the option to abort if the mother’s life is at risk (remember safe, legal, and rare?).  The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office has already announced they will not consider arrests for violation of this upheld law, so for three-fifths of the Arizona population, it is already a non-starter, and you can bet your bottom dollar that Pima County won’t be far behind, running that up to nearly 80%. 

Here's the deal – morally, the decision was the right decision.
