Sanders Says Abortion "a Constitutional Right" [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 8 Dec 2019 | John Semmens

Contender for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt) raised the ante against his rival extremist contenders by asserting "abortion is a constitutional right. It's right there in the Eighth Amendment clear as day—no cruel punishments may be inflicted. Laws barring women from getting an abortion at any stage of pregnancy are compelling them to provide nearly 20 years of child care. This violates the Thirteenth Amendment's prohibition of involuntary servitude."

"On top of this individual right of every woman there is also the collective obligation to reduce the surplus population that is so devastating to the environment," Sanders added. "Let's not kid ourselves or mince words. Every abortion extinguishes an unwanted augmentation to the surplus population. It is a more efficient and less messy method than having to cull undesirable individuals from the herd when the environmental damages have become so acute that it's our only option."

Meanwhile, rival contender Sen. Elizabeth Warren (Mass) dismissed objections to late term abortions as "overblown. The number of late term pregnancies ended by abortion is only about 1.3% per year. That's fewer than 12,000 surplus lives extinguished. More adults are murdered each year. Sadly, a lot of these murders are committed by children who should have been aborted."

“Every abortion extinguishes an unwanted augmentation to the surplus population. It is a more efficient and less messy method than having to cull undesirable individuals from the herd when the environmental damages have become so acute that it’s our only option.”

Bernie Sanders is an unwanted augmentation.

The problem with culling the population is we can shoot back. The RKBA is sole an individual right against tyranny and self preservation. If the government or any other organization is going to perform this act, I will empty my inventory and take out a bunch with me.

I recall a Central European country during the period of 1930s/1940s who also had programs with the “NOBLE” aim of reducing and eliminating “surplus populations” and “undesirable individuals”.
It did not end well for anyone at the time
Now it is to be re-introduced with “all good intentions?”

I think he was referring to the Soviet constitution, with which he is much more familiar than ours.

Ask Bernie Sanders where in the Constitution does it convey the right of anyone to kill a baby? Bernie Sanders is blowing wind with that statement. Actually, the 10th Amendment to the Constitution nullifies Roe vs Wade. Read it below:

10th AMENDMENT

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
