Yes, you are correct. Congress could simply pass a law that defines persons to include the unborn, or a Human Life Amendment could be passed.
My problem is that you’re telling the federal government can take over any issue where a majority of Congress says one state’s laws threaten life. Do you realize what that leads to?
When will conservatives realize that the liberals and bureaucrats they love giving power to don’t think like them?
No, your problem is that you made a stupid assertion that is unsupportable.
I feel your pain.
Here’s an example. Conservatives were outraged by racy content on TV. They passed laws stating the federal government can penalize broadcasters who offend “community values” because it’s an attack on our moral fiber. Conservative patted each other on the back for expanding the power of the federal government.
Liberals saw that, took it and are now passing laws adding extra penalties for people who commit crimes that offend “community values” because it’s an attack on our moral fiber, a.k.a. “hate crimes” and “speech codes.” They even copied the phrase “community values.”
Good luck getting people riled up about. You’ve already established that the government has an interest in protecting “community values.” People now look to the government to take action against people who offend them, whether it be a curse word on TV or a swastika on a synagogue.
I’m not saying I agree, I’m just saying 51% of Congress and most judges will. Don’t do it on abortion.
