A Kentucky woman Friday filed an emergency class-action lawsuit, asking a Jefferson County judge to allow her to terminate her pregnancy. It’s the first lawsuit of its kind in Kentucky since the state banned nearly all abortions in 2022 and one of the only times nationwide since before Roe v. Wade in 1973 that an adult woman has asked a court to intervene on her behalf and allow her to get an abortion.

I'm pretty sure you didn't prove me wrong about anything, you just showed a profound ignorance about women's suffrage.

Okay. The nation was less divided during the civil war and a war wasn't necessary to amend the constitution to outlaw slavery.

Are you happy now, Mr. Historian?
