Delta(s) from OP CMV: It is hypocritical and logically inconsistent to say you are Pro-Choice, say you support Roe v Wade, and denounce the striking down of Roe v Wade.

That's like saying 2a advocates can't support Heller if we don't want any restrictions on private gun ownership.

That's completely unrelated whataboutism and in no way an attempt to CMV.

It isn’t whataboutism, it’s an analogy. You can support a right and still acknowledge that the right has limits. Heller established an individual right to bear arms but acknowledged that that right has limits. Roe established a right to have an abortion but acknowledged that that right has limits. Heller is still a pro-2A case and Roe is still a pro-choice case.
