On politics again

The issue of abortion appears to have come before the Supreme Court again. My opinion is that if a woman is in a very bad situation or been abused by a man, she should be able to abort the child in her first trimester, but if it takes you more than three months to know you are pregnant, you are probably either mentally ill or on drugs.

On the notion of abortion and “privacy.” Trust me, authorities don’t always respect privacy in this country. I had a recent apartment invaded by police and then was tortured by them even though non-violent, doing nothing illegal, and entirely cooperating with them.

My younger sister and Dad, who are both lawyers, once had a conversation that there is no right to privacy in the US.
