Ping!
The Doc was well on his way to delivering a breach birth, which was probably uncalled for but he killed the baby to avoid it.
Just the description of it is horrifying. How could anyone be in the room when this is happening? How could anyone participate in it? How could anyone do it? I don’t have any words for it really. It just really makes me want to cry. They had a lady on O’Reilly a few years back describing the abortion of a Down’s baby. She was the nurse during it. The baby lived for a little bit afterward (obviously not a PBA). O’Reilly was so overcome he couldn’t even speak for a few seconds. It’s just F****** horrible.
I've got a question, quoting Ruthie Baby, " Those views, this Court made clear in Casey, “are no longer consistent with our understanding of the family, the individual, or the Constitution.” 505 U. S., at 897. Women, it is now acknowledged, have the talent, capacity, and right “to participate equally in the economic and social life of the Nation.” Id., at 856. Their ability to realize their full potential, the Court recognized, is intimately connected to “their ability to control their reproductive lives.” Ibid. Thus, legal challenges to undue restrictions on abortion procedures do not seek to vindicate some generalized notion of privacy; rather, they center on a woman’s autonomy to determine her life’s course, and thus to enjoy equal citizenship stature. See, e.g., Siegel, Reasoning from the Body: A Historical Perspective on Abortion Regulation and Questions ofEqual Protection, 44 Stan. L. Rev. 261 (1992); Law, Rethinking Sex and the Constitution,132 U. Pa. L. Rev. 955, 1002-1028 (1984)."
I've read the incoherent mess that is Casey several times. How many Justices actually signed on to this particular "finding"?
Well done.
