The court probably won't ever directly attack Roe v Wade;
why should they? Even if abortion remains (strictly speaking)
legal, Republicans everywhere are making it nearly impossible
to actually obtain one, so why pay the political price of
overturning Roe v. Wade?

How many counties have *NO* (zero, zip, zilch, nada) abortion
providers?

How many states require two visits separated by 24 hours to one
of these non-existent abortion clinics?

How many states have impossed unreasonable burdens on the
clinics in terms of licensing, facilities requirements, support
requirements, disposal of their medical waste, etc?

How many med schools stil train future OB/GYNs in the necessary
procedures?

In how many places do the local politics essentially mandate armed
guards at clinics and armed escorts for the personnel who work there?

Why even bother overturning Roe v. Wade? One day, you average non-
rich American woman will wake up pregnant and simply find there's
nowhere left in the United States to go.
