The Supreme Court said Wednesday it will consider whether to restrict access to a widely used abortion drug — even in states where the procedure is still allowed.

The case concerns the drug mifepristone that — when coupled with another drug — is one of the most common abortion methods in the United States.

The decision means the conservative-leaning court will again wade into the abortion debate after overturning Roe v. Wade last year, altering the landscape of abortion rights nationwide and triggering more than half the states to outlaw or severely restrict the procedure.

    Once that cat’s well and truly out of the bag, there will be states deciding that any decision by the SC is null and void. No more same-sex marriage folks. Bye bye Brown v. Board of Education, welcome back segregation! No more guaranteed lawyer if you can’t afford one. This isn’t something you should be cheerleading.

      I’m cheerleading it and I’m funding it on a large scale. No one will ever again dare to take same-sex marriage choice away, we will simply gas chamber anybody who tries. And we need to get rid of all these fascists once and for all, with extreme prejudice. I’m cheerleading this all the way to the bloody end.
