"Back in January, 25-year-old Robert Elliott repeatedly beat his pregnant wife, intending to harm their unborn child, and abusing her in front of their children. Prosecutors say Elliott's abuse caused major trauma to the fetus...his wife eventually miscarried."

I'm confused. According to the U.S. Supreme Court the fetus is not a human being, and hence cannot be protected by Constitutional law. I understand them jailing the guy for attacking his wife, but a fetus is simply a clump of tissue, a "part of a woman's body". So how does the government put this guy away for harming a useless clump of tissue with no Constitutional protection?

Of course my question is rhetorical, but this all seems like a brazen, 'in-your-face' double standard to me. If she goes to a 'clinic' to have the baby's limbs torn off and its body disposed of in a dumpster, then the killer gets rewarded with a doctor's fee instead of being charged with murder. What this all really means is that American mother's have been given the legal authority to determine if their babies are human or not. Legalized abortion has got the be the greatest insult to God ever perpetrated by man.

...which is why this case needs some national media attention. It's an actual case where a real person was actually charged with the crime of killing/harming a fetus, and the defendant pleaded guilty to the crime.

Oops, don't let the ACLU hear about this one.

That's what pro-choice is:
The mother's choice to choose if your baby is a baby or fetus at any point during the pregnancy.
The mother's choice to deny the father his money for 18 years, with no choice being afforded the father to object.

Murder, at least in this case, is a State crime, not a federal crime.

In Roe vs. Wade the supreme court miraculously invented a woman's right to an abortion that overruled state laws and any rights the unborn child might have in that case.

However, since does not fall under that narrow case where the supreme court ruled that the mother's rights are supreme, the bastard can be charged with first degree murder.

In my opinion he should have gotten the death sentence.

Here is another great example of the down the rabbit hole insanity that abortion "law" is. A few years ago in Chicago, a married manager of a fast food resturant was charged with the murder of his girlfriend and her unborn child. It seems that he knocked her up, and she came to extort him for hush money, part of which was to go for an abortion. He killed her because he didn't want to pay the dough for it.

While the murder charges for the girlfriend are easy to understand, I was struck as to how there was almost no discussion of the fact that he got charged for achieving precisely the same objective for the child that the "mother" was seeking and that she would have been entirely free of legal consequence for by having the deed performed by a medical hitman.

Aside from the grave moral implications, abortion law is also the greatest insult to logic and linear reasoning that was ever perpetrated by man or Supreme court justice!!!
