Oklahoma Legislature passes bill criminalizing abortion

While I think this is a pointless move they do have the intention of taking this to the courts in an effort to approach the argument in Roe v. Wade another way, essentially getting the court to overturn the decision. Do I think it's wrong and pointless and a waste? Yes, but not everyone does. Also, a blanket way of approaching that would be far too ambiguous. How do we determine what is really a waste and what is not?

There are already laws for frivolous lawsuits where judges determine what a waste of time is. This law goes directly in the face of a legal precedent that is already set at the highest level. It is pretty easy to see that if abortions are legal, making providing an abortion illegal is not going to stand. This whole game legislatures are playing where they think they can "out semantics" the courts is embarrassing.
