I think it would be interesting to study, if SCOTUS overturns Roe and Casey, how many states have already declared fetuses to be persons, which would make abortion, or travel to get abortion, murder, with no statute of limitations.
Also interesting would be whether a law that is on the books, but unenforceable, may be applied retroactively if that law is declared constitutional.
If I were looking to point out the problems with forcing women to give birth, I think the purely discretionary enforcement of laws carrying mandatory life sentences would be a good thing to focus on.
I think I can acknowledge that ACB is a brilliant woman and a potentially great justice and also that the end of the right to privacy under the 9th would be a nightmare.
And I would propose that this is a more fruitful line of attack than showing women in little red outfits.
