Roe vs. Wade tipped: Supreme Court decision sparks jubilation and horror (video)

Watch the video: jubilation and horror after the US Supreme Court overturned the landmark ruling on abortion rights.

STORY: Angry women on the streets of Washington DC on Friday. After almost 50 years, the US Supreme Court overturned the nationwide right to abortion. Abortion is not protected by the constitution, wrote the conservative judge Samuel Alito for the conservative majority on the Supreme Court. With this decision, strict abortion laws can now come into force in numerous US states, up to and including extensive bans. The ruling caused cheers among Republicans and religious conservatives who had been working towards this decision for decades. While Democrats and women’s rights activists were appalled. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said, among other things, that this cruel verdict was outrageous and heartbreaking. The liberal judges of the Supreme Court also sharply criticized the judgment of the conservative majority. As a result of this judgment, a woman no longer has any significant rights from the moment of fertilization, they said.
