Legally: Doesn't matter, there's no way to objectively interpret the law and trying to is stupid, judges should only rule based on what's morally right

Morally: Fantastic

Yeah, no. If I didn't know what this was in response to I'd think it was someone advocating conversion therapy or being anti Obergefell something. This is absolutely not the way.

Great historic decision.

The fact that it's only polling 49% here as opposed to 60%-75% nationally is one of the cases where the white male skew of this Forum really outweighs its liberalism.

Posters here, being keyed into political debates, probably are more knowledgeable on the whole than the general public about what the decision actually is.   A lot of Americans support Roe v Wade, but also support restricting abortion in ways Roe does not allow.  

Hispanics are a bit more anti-abortion than whites who are a bit more anti-abortion than blacks; the racial difference isn't huge.  Young single women are the most supportive demographic for abortion rights; older married women with children are the least.

I'm too lazy to look up polls, but I would assume that younger Hispanics, given their increasing detachment from the Catholic Church, are more supportive of legal abortion than older ones. The age gap would be very interesting.

Younger hispanics are more likely to be detached from the Catholic church, but those who do stay religious are more likely to be Evangelical. I doubt there's much of a generational gap here. Abortion is not like SSM or marijuana in that way.
