Sooner or later, the SC would have to state that “Life begins at X weeks” Casey started it with viability. If you can’t kill a baby after birth then when can you, the SC was on a course for a reckoning day. Someone somewhere someday had to make that call and since the court created this problem it was there call. If the states had a constitutional ban on taking a life then the amendments would have to reverse that with, fill in the blank, no longer are protected by the constitution. That’s a little harder to right tricky language about, because it’s not about the mother. The whole debate only existed because one side denied the humanity of the unborn and given no statutory authority to limit that, were free to pursue abortion. I think the lack of explicit language in the constitution stating that every human has the right to life is its biggest flaw. Before America, virtually every monarch the ability to whack you without question. Yeah the Declaration states we all have a right to life. . . It was just a middle finger to the king and not the constitution which is the only document the SC is charged to consider. I look forward to your thoughts as I am lost humanly speaking on how we go on from here.
I’m a staunch believer that life begins and would support the proposed Amendment (post 34).
That Amendment isn’t gonna happen. I know that. I also know that Trump and the RNC leaving it up to the States is not going to solve our National split on abortions either.
Abortion - like Slavery - cannot be determined State by State. We had a Civil War on Slavery and I believe abortion is the primary issue that might drive us into CWII.
