"and that women who end pregnancies are criminals."

The number of pro-lifers who advocate the above is well, almost zero. I have NEVER heard a pro-lifer advocate such but this belief has been ascribed to them for over 25 years, so your unoriginal comments are exceedingly tiresome and dishonest. IF ABORTION WERE BANNED, IT IS THE ABORTIONIST WHO THEN SHOULD BE TRIED AND CONVICTED.

Even when abortion was illegal in this country, except in rare instances, it was the abortionist who was tried. And it was also rare for women who attempted abortions themselves, to be tried.

But let's not forget, to kill you own offspring either outside or inside the womb, is a heinous act which is not negated through legalization however you and others may attempt to color it.

The fact that our right to privacy is unenumerated does not negate its existence. Your attack on it is misguided. Are you sure you took ten courses in law ?

If you believe in abortion, you don't believe in the most basic right of all, the right to life.

Bull.
I firmly believe that every murder should be prosecuted, and tried before a jury. -- Do you?

Therefore, it is you have the "authoritarian" personality. How more authoritative can one be, than to believe it is okay to take away an innocent someone's life?

Get your local prosecutor to prefer charges, and hold a trial then. Prove your point before a jury that some innocent life was taken.. Can you? Will you?
-- No, you want a fiat 'law', -- decreeing that abortion is banned, and that women who end pregnancies are criminals.

Sorry kid, that isn't the American way. We live in a free republic under the rule of Constitutional law, not under prohibitional decrees.

It is impossible to write a prohibition outlawing abortion without making the woman involved a criminal.

You are simply attempting to deny the facts of what you advocate. You say ALL abortion is murder.

But let's not forget, to kill you own offspring either outside or inside the womb, is a heinous act which is not negated through legalization however you and others may attempt to color it.

So your religion compels you to say. Preach as you like, but your prohibitional beliefs have no place in Constitutional law.
