Leave it to the medical professionals, not to legal professionals!
Leave it to medical professionals that refuse to violate the hippocratic oath.
Let the doctors do their job and keep the courts out of it.
They should also pass vasectomy laws for all males as well. These damn politicians playing God. Sickening.
Women aren't gods, they don't get to decide who lives and dies on a whim.
That's not a bad idea. 🤔
It solve the abortion issue, the teenage mother issue, the female created single mother-issue,
the greedy child-support begging mothers issue, the paternity fraud issue, the sprm theft issue
and all the other reproductive related legal problems that wn create.
@@LuciusC But men do? Men wrote the laws in the 1800s, thus deciding who gets to live and die on a whim.
Yes. Men should get vastecomies. Problem solved. Put your sperm in a sperm bank.
@@LuciusCYou don't get to decide if or when a woman becomes a mother
Mothers who already have children alive outside the womb will be dying and leaving motherless children. Disgusted
Yeah, we never got to hear anybody talk because she wouldn't let him answer.
@@user-mp9rd4hg8bhe was trying to hedge around the question...he was refusing to answer the question because he knew he was going to have to agree with the LEGAL LOGIC. You can't have it both ways...if you bring a matter to the SCOTUS, you had better have your head and butt wired together or they WILL tear your case to SHREDS.
Republicans don't care.
@@user-mp9rd4hg8b Listen again, it was a simple yes or no question not his thesis.
@@Mary-us8jb She made a long wordy premise, then tried to pigeonhole him into a yes/no answer. It's meant to be unfair. And in one of her statements, she literally contradicted herself. This is the Supreme Court, for crying out loud. The full argument should be heard on both sides.… and you notice I'm not taking a specific side, I'm arguing that the justice system can't work if BOTH sides aren't allowed speak. The fact that you don't get it means that YOU are the problem, regardless of the outcome.
Politicians have absolutely no business intervening in medical decisions. They are not qualified to make those calls.
We dont call our lawmakers for health choices! Stop your war on woman!!!
When politicians play doctor, we die.
Yes.. real cases.. Idaho..😮
No, real insinuations and assertions. We never got to hear the other side because she wouldn't stop talking.
@@user-mp9rd4hg8b...NO...you want this to be based entirely on RELIGION..."LET GOD BE THE JUDGE"...you want to eliminate SCIENCE...i.e...MEDICINE. That would take us back to the stone age. It is the Doctors and the Woman's decision...not some, "Minister", or "Politician". Women will DIE if their Physicians are handcuffed to some FUNDEMENTALIST, THEOLOGICAL, AUTHARIATISM. You don't like what a Doctor decides...go to your local Minister and he can "pray" for you the next time you or a loved one get in a life threatening situation. You CAN'T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS.
@@user-mp9rd4hg8b he spoke plenty. Said lots of lies and was "hedging" his answers according Amy comey barret. Your lies are apparent. This clip was a mere 2 minutes plus. Just because you're dumb doesn't mean the rest of the world is
@@user-mp9rd4hg8bstop with the BS, the “other side “ wants a woman to die!
@@user-mp9rd4hg8b look up pprom and then rewatch what she says happed ,
🇺🇸🇺🇸USA FREEDOM OF CHOICE SAVES WOMEN & STOPS LAW SUITS! 😮😮😮
Justice ⚖️ Sotomayor,,,, please stand your ground!!!! I had 3 Tubular PG and would have died or other health problems if my doctor had not been able to do surgery.
@MargaretB-im7ts Wow. This Idaho law has a health exception. Every other anti-abortion law has health exceptions. Your life was never at risk from anti-abortion laws. If you doctor refused to save you, he was a stupid incompetent doctor, not held back by the law.
🇺🇸🇺🇸USA FREEDOM OF CHOICE SAVES WOMEN & STOPS LAW SUITS! 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
They already chose, quit bellyaching.
If you disagree with your doctor you can get a second opinion.
This isn’t a “ get a second opinion situation “, this is a life or death situation. When Doctors are faced with vague laws, or as in Texas, a hostile AG. the doctors are afraid to make medical decisions to save the woman’s life.
@@elysedewyngaert178 Bull. If they deem it medically necessary they can do whatever is necessary and the legislators can't do diddly.
@@elysedewyngaert178 NO honest doctor is afraid. No doctor aware of the actual laws is afraid. There is nothing vague about any law I have seen. The attorney in this video was crystal clear (Yes and No answers would not be clear. Sotomayor was not wanting clarity.) Any doctor acting in good faith will be safe.
@@Hamann9631 the laws are too vague leaving the threat of prosecution, making any action dangerous. The hospital attorneys wouldn’t support these Doctors either.
The damn law didn’t let any doctor treat this woman. Hopefully no one you live in your life gets affected by these archaic laws written by non-medical professionals who don’t even know how medicine is practiced.
Life-saving exemption did not help the mother in Texas. She had to go out of state. Hopefully, she didn't suffer consequences that caused infertility.
@heatherfitzgibbon, it is not he fault of the law if a corrupt or stupid doctor acts based upon lies about the law. If the law allowed saving the mother's life, then the law is not at fault.
I can not imagine being a lawyer and argue the anti abortion stance on medical grounds...jesus...what have you done Alito !
Vote 😢😢😢😢😢
Monsters
Also these people on here saying that the law is clear, it is not. Doctors took it to the supreme court and they refused to do so. Therefore, you take a gamble with going to prison and ruining your life every time an abortion is performed. You also have to risk a jury of peers that know nothing about medicine finding you guilty despite science.
This is horrible!!
Those of you arguing that this is rare, do you actually know this? Also, i have noticed an extreme lack of empathy on the right lately. What if this is your wife or daughter does it seem unimportant then?
This is what Republicans wanted. I’m voting democrat up and down the entire ticket.
I don’t understand the issue. The supremacy clause means Federal law prevails in a conflict with state law. The issue doesn’t matter.
Wow. The dishonesty of some people. The law makes it clear doctor's acting in good faith are safe.
don't question the legitimacy of this aipac-funded two-party reality show, enjoy it. become immersed in it. believe in it. feed it. and whatever you do, don't rise up and rebel against it.
The case of abortion stays in the States
No , it must be codified by Congress.
For it to become a federal issue would require a constitutional amendment, just as slavery did.
@@LuciusC no it would not. If Congress passes codification of roe , it will supercede any states laws.
@@robinhood20253 then the supreme court and Congress need to change the bill and pass a bill that doctors and
Patients have rights women we have to stay strong and fight this bigotry thank God supreme court justice Sotomayor has a brain keep fight for us justice Sotomayor I don't think I spelled her name right but you know who I am referring vote blue America and let's get term limits on these judge's
@@robinhood20253 I hope your right on that
BS
I'm more concerned about the 14th Amendment, that she shot through the head in defending Trump
LOL, what? Trump is having his 14th amendment rights violated right now.
Sotomayor doesn’t defend Trump and I don’t think you can find a speech or statement she’s given to substantiate that she has.
When did Sotomayor defend trump? I can't find any proof that it ever happened.
@@lissabee49 probably talking about ruling in his favor on the Colorado ballot a lawsuit. It's a ridiculous comment from a ridiculous person.
@@lissabee49 I didn't hear one word of trump mentioned your hearing things
This woman needs to ask her question…..THEN shut her mouth and let the man ANSWER her question…..period.
The GOP and corrupt Supreme Court needs to STOP TAKING RIGHTS AWAY FROM WOMEN....period.
Nancy curtis.. Justice Sotomayor and the attorney she was questioning, both already knew what the answer was. Why give him a platform to try to sugar coat it?
Yeah, that behavior comes with the XX chromosomes.
@@lisabrown7959 Why give an attorney a platform? In a court of law? Why let an attorney speak in a court of law? Are you serious right now? What is wrong with you? You would fit right in with the shiny black boots guys in 1930s Germany, or in Soviet Russia, where they pronounce guilt… no trial… and send them off to the camps. And it's all good, to you, until this diabolical machine you helped create turns against you. Wake up!
it is a yes and no (binary) question. The same way the man supports a law that is binary (abortion or no abortion) with ZERO explanation. Why should he be given the opportunity of explaining?
Let the man talk!
it was a yes or no question. These law makers reduces these decision to a yes or no answer (abortion or no abortion) with no consideration of circumstances. It is only fair that they answer these question with a yes or no too.
Excuse me, maybe the justice Sotomayor can explain how it is legal for a doctor to terminate the Life of the unborn?
Alao over 600,000 unborn human beings are aborted annually in the United States of America, how does that compare to the Florida woman?
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
They try to guilt trip us with edge cases even though they support reasonless abortion because they think women are gods
That's a example there are a lot more women that go through this than one grow up vote blue America
@@chrisblake8798 Yes and millions of unborn babies human beings Life taken over the past fifty years. Not to mention the fact that these aborted babies offspring will never have a chance to be born either.
Abortions is genocide.
As to you, someone along your family line thought to give you life.
I sincerely hope you are better informed.
It does not matter what political party you support, life is an entitlement.
Mind your own business. I believe in a woman’s right to choose. Why don’t you cry for all the children of the world who are starving or dying from war etc…In the end if you believe in God, everybody has to him for our own sins that we committed. Unless you want to play God himself? Seriously what’s wrong with you? Can you be any more dramatic?🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲
Sotomayor is disconnected from reality.
Whose reality? Yours? Do you have a vagna? Can you give birth? No. Stfup
Replace the Justice’s name (that’s how you refer to a US Supreme Court Justice, whether you like them or not, you condescending moron) with your own name and I wholeheartedly agree. When you grow a vagina and a uterus, your opinion will matter. Unless and until that happens, STFU
Hardly.
Said no rational or intelligent person ever
Bullshit you are
How many times does this happen??? Rarely
So when it happens the lives lost are collateral damage?
A lot
OFTEN
What are you talking about? Medical complications from pregnancy like this happen all the time and America already has one of the worst maternal mortality rates in the developed world
WHAT THE F DOES THAT MATTER?
One case of actual needed abortion. BUT over 90% of abortions are not actually needed for the woman's life to be saved. Period.
You can't just make up stats based on your feelings
I'm sorry you don't understand my power. It is my portal of souls and I decide to comes and who goes. You do whatever you want with yours.
Who gets to decide when an abortion is needed?
Cite your “facts”. Don’t throw out stats without a citation.
@@julianagay5066you’re not funny. This is not funny.
Big difference between having a abortion for medical reasons versus what almost all abortions are from and thats called irresponsibility and not using birth control.
unless you are paying for it, then stfu.
Yet courts and judges and legislators are treating it like they are the same
Or a condom or get your nuts tied
That’s none of your business, really. Your judgment did make me curious, however. The guys who were so irresponsible and who didn’t use birth control? Do you think about them as much? Does thinking about them put your knickers in such a twist?
It's not just the women's responsibility use a condom or get a vasectomy it's that simple butt f***
I hope Trump gets to replace her.
He won't.
@@robinhood20253 Cry harder
@@robinhood20253 Dems are begging her to step down now while she still can because she's got so many health problems.
Trumps going to prison so that is that
Trump isn't going to do anything from a prison cell
