It's the main thing I use Wine for, now, I've mostly retired mIRC in
favor of using IRCCloud as a Web app, and I can use EncSpot, but
that's just a cool trick, Forte Agent is what I'm really utilizing

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.
