I think the issue isn't that there is not a 'Right To Life' its whether a person is obliged to exercise that right. I have the right to freely assemble but the Federal Government can't compel me to do so. So then should they be able to compel me to live if I don't want to...

In America, life has always been unalienable, by government short of conviction on a capital offense, by others except in the case of righteous war and/or self-defense, and even by the individual whose life it is.

Giving our legal and societal approval to suicide, the alienation of one's own life, is a new and quite dangerous thing to do.

It is one more example of how far our legal and political elites have departed from the principles that founded this republic.

It is one more example of how we have lost our reverence for the Creator and for those He made in His own image.
