   No.  An optical disc in an external, USB-connected drive, is still   
   optical media, not USB media.  I have a half terabyte USB thumb drive.   
   That's what I was talking about.

   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.
