The fact he was charged with “felony abortion” and not murder or manslaughter demonstrates completely the mindset of not only those involved but of the New York justice system (and really if the entire nation’s rule of law).

In other words, his crime isn’t that he killed a baby, rather that he took the choice to do the same away from the woman.

It’s only a woman’s right to kill a baby in this country. When a man chooses to do the same exact thing, exactly the same way (without the woman’s consent) it’s “felony abortion” because really, no actual “human life” was taken here (in the minds of the leftists in charge), rather only a woman’s right to choose was violated.

So to ask the question , “Why is it murder in this case but not when a woman does it” means nothing to a pro-”choice” advocate. Because what I wrote above is exactly how they view this situation.

It’s why the charge of “felony abortion” exists in the first place (instead of infanticide): to make it clear it isn’t “murder” when a man chooses to abort a baby, it’s about violating the “right’’ of a woman to “choose”.

If I were judge and jury, that guy wouldn't walk free until Christ comes again. And then he'd face the real judgment.

Agreed.

But the type of difficulty you describe --- false prosecution because of a miscarriage --- never happened in the legal history of abortion law.

I would certainly hope not.

We appear to be on the same page with this. My comments were mostly an indication of my mistrust of the law in a nation where selective prosecution appears to rule the day.
