What bothers me about the abortion threads are many are totally accepting, and even demanding, that federal government has a role in this issue. If abortion is considered to be murder, then it is a state issue. If abortion is a state issue, states can more freely control and limit abortion thereby saving some lives.

are you my long lost twin???

I have gotten into many drag down arguments over the exact same thing...

I was even called a baby killer for saying abortion, if you follow the constitution, IS a tenth amendment issue..

every state that has tried to ban or outlaw it has been overturned by the fed....

I firmly believe a good deal of the people on this forum do not accept the saving of one life as a victory...

or the saving of an entire state’s lives as a victory either..

all or nothing..

with that kind of thinking, it will always be nothing..

divide and conquer...

one state at a time

“If abortion is considered to be murder, then it is a state issue.”

If abortion is murder, it’s not solely a state issue. There would also be a 14th amendment civil rights issue, which would be a Federal issue.
