Why doesnt the Supreme Court see that and make sure no one can murder with these drugs?
They can.
But strangely they don’t see the drugs as a murder tool. I wonder why.
IN
YOUR
SINGLE
OPINION.
St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas both believed in ensoulment at quickening, as did many classical and medieval figures.
Again, opinion.
But laws are not made on the opinion of small groups or single persons, regardless of how sincerely or zealously those opinions are held. Instead, they are made on the overall aggregate societal opinion, which does not reflect your view, at least on a nationwide basis.
Quickening general occurs around 16 to 20 gestational weeks.
So there we are. 
We all have our opinions.
Society and government will merge those opinions to come up with laws that might be more or less desirable, depending on the State.
Oh no, not the quickening argument. They chose that gestational period because that was the only way they had of knowing if they were pregnant, we have better ways now. It was just another way of saying, pretty sure you have a baby in there.
Personally I say. lets allow liberals to erase themselves from the planet, good riddance.

Jewish scholars debated the issue of when life begins for decades (the debate is in the Talmud). They settled on
An answer from the passage in Genesis in which G*d breathed life into Adam. Life begins when a baby draws their first breath — which is possible around 22 to 24 weeks.
As all religious views are protected under the 1st Amendment the view that life begins at conception is equally valid BUT neither view can be imposed on all

As I pointed out.
An opinion.
Opinions, one and all.
You say opinion, I say historical fact. Seems pretty self evident no society would punish women for killing unborn children nobody knew they were carrying, but carry on.
Supreme Court upholds availability of the abortion bill.
7 to 2 apparently.
Thomas and Alito (not surprising)
Absolutely correct.
One judge should not be able to tank a well considered FDA judgement.

So how do we fix it so all these cases don’t go to this particular judge?
I have outlined a general proposal to avoid Federal Court/Judge shopping.
If a plaintiff seeks to enjoin a Federal Statute/Presidential Executive Order/Agency action, the case would be randomly assigned to any of the 91 Article III Districts Courts, then randomly to any Judge in the assigned District.
All other civil/criminal cases would be assigned as under the current system.

Good. I wondered if Barrett would join to make it 6-3.
Thats an issue that is frustrating the Supreme Court on both the Left and Right. Massive national issues being decided by a lone wolf federal judge- leading to confusion until its sorted out eventually by the Supreme Court. Its dumb.
Apr 21 2023 Application (22A902) granted by the Court. The application for stay presented to Justice Alito and by him referred to the Court is granted. The April 7, 2023 order of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, case No. 2:22-cv-223, is stayed pending disposition of the appeal in the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit and disposition of a petition for a writ of certiorari, if such a writ is timely sought. Should certiorari be denied, this stay shall terminate automatically. In the event certiorari is granted, the stay shall terminate upon the sending down of the judgment of this Court. Justice Thomas would deny the application for stay. Justice Alito dissents. (Detached Opinion)
