Due to the U.S. Supreme Court ruling on abortion rights for women, pro-choice advocates marched through the center of Hartford. Many are concerned over the effects this may have on other rights in the U.S. (Douglas Hook / Hartford Courant)

The U.S. Supreme Court — untethered to facts, precedent, the law or the Constitution — has declared all American women second-class citizens, unprotected by the nation’s founding documents.

Voting 6-3, the Court discarded Roe v. Wade, the seminal case protecting a woman’s right to an abortion for half a century.

The decision ranks among the court’s most disturbing anti-liberty decisions, alongside the Dred Scott case, the Plessy case that entrenched discrimination and Korematsu, which affirmed the incarceration of Americans of Japanese descent.
