The Supreme Court of The United States (SCOTUS) made a ruling on 2 cases but the outcomes of these are being referred to as the "overturning of Roe v Wade".
Many people in the media or the political circles are telling you it was a ruling on Abortion.
It was not.
It was purely a ruling on the Constitutional validity of those legal matters jurisdiction, it was not pro nor anti abortion.
Now when you listen to the Media, read newspapers, social media content or comments from Australian politicians try to remember this.
When they start talking about Roe v Wade, about reproductive rights, women's rights, bodily autonomy, when life begins & all of these matters...
It was Constitutional Legal Ruling only. They purely ruled that it held no validity on Constitutional grounds therefore it is a State Matter governed by State laws, made by each state legislature who are elected by the individual state’s voters.
It removed the constitutionally illegal ability of their Federal Government to ignore State Sovereignty and commit over reach.
That’s it. That is the sum total of the Legal Ruling.
Hate to disappoint you or embarass others but that's the length, breadth & width of it all.
And yes I'm very cynical about anyone in Australia annexing the unconnected angst & aggression that this purely domestic matter of a foreign nation. Further a matter relevent to THEIR Constitutional only, not ours. I'll have to go to bold letters again...
HERE ARE THE ONLY PARALLELS FOR AUSTRALIANS TO CONSIDER APPLICABLE TO AUSTRALIA.
DO YOU SUPPORT AUSTRALIAN FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OVER RULING A LEGITIMATE STATE LAW OR DO YOU SUPPORT STATE SOVEREIGNTY ON LAWFUL STATE MATTERS?
That's it. That's the some total of everything that the SCOTUS ruling on Roe v Wade can be applied here. Nothing else, that is the lot.
By now you'll notice in regards the "Over Ruling of Roe v Wade" I’m not commenting on pro/con of Abortion, because it is not relevant to that ruling. Again, it was purely about those cases having Consitutional validity, purely on Constitutional grounds.
The misrepresentation of the legal judgement by so many on both sides in the media, on social media, by politicians even here in Australia is breath taking. Stunningly niave or worse, scarily deliberate. So far it's been detrimental to all involved & invokes emotional responses that have no connection to the legal basis of the actual ruling whatsoever
Over here in WA, surprise, surprise, the WALabor Government has spoken up on the matter.
They are either unaware of the facts, which makes them the 2nd worst possible people to be legislators. Or they are very aware and deliberately misrepresenting it for political gain making them the very worst people to be legislators.
Either way they appear to be happily annexing misplaced anger to distract people from the State of Emergency we're in whilst so many Labor Ministers are enjoying a European holiday. Distracts people from Ambulance ramping caused by a failed Hospital system. Great distraction as they sack the head of St Johns & its gets relegated downwards in the news cycle,
It was a play to steer the political agenda in WA, to distract people and it worked an absolute treat fooling many in the Media & the public. And helped by non Government MPs who are supposed to hold the Government to account.
Several WALabor ministers cranked up about the need to refresh Abortion Laws in WA. Funny...WALabor Govn has been in power since March 2017 and has done zero to consider Abortion Law in WA. They did however pass Electoral Reform Law virtually overnight, laws that were not able to be used for 4 years. Reforms that arguably will help WALabor re-election prospects by delivering a City centric gerrymander. But the Abortion Issue now, out of the blue, suddenly this is a key issue?
POLITICAL.
I was stunned to see not only the media but also some opposition MPs get in on the act & join the chorus singing from the WALabor hymn sheet. Foolishly ride the burning wagon of Bulldust like they're a noble particiapant in standing up for injustice.
Labor & others point to the SCOTUS ruling without mentioning if they support or oppose its key legal basis…can & should a Federal Government be able to ignore state sovereignty & over rule laws of the states that are matters of the state.
Instead..."Shhhh...look over there, is that a squirrel riding a pair of water skis, quick look over there"
Like it or not, the SCOTUS has legally ruled that the US Federal Government cannot over rule their individual state’s laws on state matters.
They not only control both Houses of Parliament, they now seem to easily control the political agenda AND also it seem some of their political opponents as well. Yes some opposition are rightly silent, whilst others are rounded up nicely.
It means less than the shadow of a small hill of bean but I fully support the SCOTUS ruling to prevent unconstitutional over reach of a Federal Government upon valid state laws. Fact that it’s Abortion is irrelevant...
Salient wider comments seen since have included...
- Constitutional Law Ruling over in a foreign country...it has nothing to do with Australia
- Loud screeching people claim its an attack on Bodily Autonomy & yet many were the same people supporting vaccination mandates
- Those that missed it was purely a legal ruling & decided to focus solely on Abortion & how it was a matter of women's rights, was healthcare, was a form of contraception, etc never actually pointed out at what point "LIFE" begins and/or at what point human rights begin.
- Some, like the very well known young journalist lady, saying those without a uterus should shut up. She said that on radio & it is at completely odds with the idea of free speech & equal free speech for all.
- There's a dozen more but the oddest one of all was that stopping a federal government illegally/unconstitutionally imposing its will on state matters & returning that state matter, to the respective states, to be decided upon in democratically elected state Legislatures, elected by the voters who live & a registered to vote in that state was somehow an attack on democracy. I mean that was a lie. Not just a bit, but as fully as a big fat lump of stinky faslehood can get.
But then, if you're willing to ignore those rulings were nothing more that legal rulings on Constitutional Validity, preventing illegal Federal over reach & walking over State Sovereignty then I don't think you should be a law maker in a legislature anywhere, federal, state or local. You are manfiestly untrustworthy, thoroughly incompetent or happily both whilst lying.
Back to Western Australia, when we're looking at the intellectually bankrupt virtue signalling, what are the reasons the Government ministers & MPs are pushing the Political Distraction & why are non Government MPs so eagerly being co-enablers of the lie & the distraction. I suspect both think all the public are idiots & all the public embrace virtue signals so best to get on the Bulldust Express.
** Now...Just Watch - The radical left & the radically deranged (some of which maybe both) will go totally feral online. TikTok will explode with fools angrily yelling nonsense that isn't relevent. Nearly all the wild claims will be proven to be false & misleading but accepted by nearly all not going deeper & asking questions.
The issue will die down within weeks & the Political Shape Shifting Theatre Props & Assorted Grifters in Australia will never fully expand on wrong claims they made, especially the profoundly vague claims...it will be too embarassing. It will largely turn into quick news cycle sugar hit by those Australia MPs who made a complete clot of themselves, showing themselves their role in Parliament House should be restricted to gardening or catering
AND NONE, AND I MEAN NONE OF THESE VIRTUE SIGNALLERS WILL KNOW NOR EXPLAIN THE 10th AMENDMENT TO THE US CONSITITUTION...NONE **
The Tenth Amendment (Amendment X) to the United States Constitution, a part of the Bill of Rights, was ratified on December 15, 1791.
It expresses the principle of federalism, also known as states' rights, by stating that the federal government has only those powers delegated to it by the Constitution, and that all other powers not forbidden to the states by the Constitution are reserved to each state.
