Well just thinking about it feels like a kick in the gut, for starters.

I think that there would be a great outrage and backlash and a big fight back.

I think that we'd find that there are a lot of women who have been preparing for this by learning how to provide safe abortions by alternative methods. And that those would be women who would risk their own freedom by providing them because they would know that if they were caught they would get longer jail sentences than people who rape and murder children.

I think we'd get back to back alley unsafe abortions and more women would die because of that- while those in practice would gloat about the money they make off of it.

I think there would be a massive slide back on women's safety and security because this is so tied into the rape issues that keep coming up. Because of that abusers/rapists would feel quite entitled and supported by the men in power and violence would increase.

In the long term I think we'd get it back, but it would be a long ugly crawl.

Those are my initial thoughts. Sure I'll be back.
