True.  Being pregnant seems like a pretty big pain in the ass, but now you'd have to worry every time you leave the house your neighbors are going to call the police to attempt to get a reward for reporting you for maybe going to get an abortion.  Also, I keep brining up the maybe ridiculous, maybe not, possibility that a woman who miscarries is going to either have to announce to everyone that she miscarried or risk being the subject of an abortion-related witch-hunt. Hey, you don't really know me but I noticed you were pregnant and now you aren't and I don't see any baby and I've been told via facebook that you have family in a state that still allows abortion. You'd better start explaining!

Call me a defeatist, but no matter how lawful people react to the judges and this decision it seems like it's just opening the door for more unrest and legal chaos.

Then there is notion that politicians and voters call for unity and when the majority of people agree on upholding Roe they still let a few folks undo it.  Oof.  Ah well, hopefully the cure for what ails us is a population spike.
