I agree with valkyrie 1000%. Our generation grew up when Roe was safe and sound, before the days of illegal abortions and the "Monday lines" of botched abortions outside of emergency rooms and all that came with it being outlawed, we were raised in a time when a woman's right to choose was a given, sometimes protested but never under serious threat - so many assume it will always be that way, just because it always was during our lives. People tell me I'm being paranoid or worrying about something that won't happen, but I can't be complacent when it comes to my rights, my civil rights, my right to control my own body and life and my right to medical privacy. Remember history, lest we repeat it.
