Marvin, could you please settle this?

You are so much more knowledgeable than I am.

Gosh, Luis, I enter this fracas late, but here's my take on the PBA ban just passed, if that's what you refer to.

The current deadly state of abortion on demand occurred through incrimental stages. The three most prominent SCOTUS rulings were Roe, Doe v Bolton, and Planned Parenthood of Pennsylvania v Casey. Then the Stenberg v Carhardt ruling that is most noteworthy for what O'Connor stated in her remarks as a Nebraska ban on PBA was set aside by the SCOTUS. O'Connor stated clearly that the way the Nebraska law was written--making PBA abortion a homicide crime--was okay with her as long as the state rewrote the law to include an exception for 'the health of the mother'. Why is that significant?... Because she admitted the procedure is homicide! And so we come to the incrimental changes to take back the nations perception, to re-establish with incrimental moves the taboos that previously protect the unborn.

By publicizing partial birth infanticide, this ban will open many eyes to the horror that is abortion on demand ... abortion kills an ALIVE prenatal child! Will the ban stop abortionists from using some other slaughter methodology? No, of course not--it's their business to kill alive children in the womb, but it will stop this particular procedure and raise awareness of the general population when they confront the difficult decisions regarding an 'unplanned pregnancy'. [The born alive infants protection act has brought a skreeching halt to bringing the little ones out of the womb then setting them aside to struggle for air until they expire--a favored method for collecting the fetuses (read little children) that were then harvested for body parts to sell to research programs (no trauma like drugs to the heart and an intact brain and body for experimentation).]

The awareness effect will last just as long as we pro-life people continue to hammer the realities home, no longer. To reject a legislatively establish ban against a particulalrly heinous kill method serves to cancel some of the improper judicial defining of our taboos and re-acquaint the public with the notion that it is the legislature that writes the laws thus defining the 'taboo' structure of our nation's conscience. I actually look forward to the SCOTUS having to rule on this ban. I would bet that the defenders of the indefensible will actually stop short of challenging this ban since they would serve the effect of raising the specter of the ghoulish thing they champion all over again!

Is that about what you wanted, my friend?
