A Georgia court just struck down the heartbeat law as unconstitutional.Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney struck down the law as unconstitutional when it was enacted as opposed to the law as it stands today after the Dobbs decision...
...In footnote 5, Judge McBurney gives a backhand to the Dobbs majority: "Dobbs’ authority flows not from some mystical higher wisdom but instead basic math. The Dobbs majority is not somehow 'more correct' than the majority that birthed Roe or Casey...
"...Despite its frothy language disparaging the views espoused by previous Justices, the magic of Dobbs is not its special insight into historical “facts” or its monopoly on constitutional hermeneutics. It is simply numbers..."
"...More Justices today believe that the U.S. Constitution does not protect a woman’s right to choose what to do with her body than did in that same institution 50 years ago..."
"...This new majority has provided our nation with a revised (and controlling) interpretation of what the unchanged words of the U.S. Constitution really mean. And until that interpretation changes again, it is the law."
Methinks that the court disagrees with Dobbs.
