Abortion as laid forth in Roe V Wade by SCOTUS is the law of the land. I accept that as a fact. Saying that Black People were only 2/3 human was, at one time, also the law of the land.
Somewhere in the distant future, when humans have become even more advanced and enlightened, they will be studying the ancient civilization of America in the 20th and 21st century. Much will be written about how advanced we were at that time, and how humankind made many advances. But they will also say, "but they also killed their unborn children in their mother's wombs".
Much like we look back on great civilizations such as Rome, and point out that despite their greatness, they revelled in slavery, decadence, and blood sports.

I think in the near distant future, doctors will be saying "I can't believe they were letting people have babies with those genes". We'll see...
