Yeah, but LO is inferior, because it doesn't guess the word you're
typing like M$ Word.  We're stuck in the past, with LO on Linux,
locked out of the glory of M$ Office.  All because we're so selfish as
to want an OS that doesn't exploit the access, to our computers.

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.
