Even more puzzling , aren't you expected to give up your rights , especially those related to freedom , when you are in prison.
EXACTLY, one goes to prison and surrenders MANY rights. Can't get to your kids recital, can't go the funeral of your friends brother, can't go to the Super Bowl, or go to McDonalds and buy French Fries, can't take the wife out on the anniversary. So why should she go to an abortion?
Exactly. All this concern by Judge Dean Whipple that "the prison system was blocking the woman from exercising her right to an abortion," seems odd to me. My guess is they are also blocking her right to travel, freedom of association, her right to bear arms.... I think the original idea of prison is that you do lose some rights!
