Agreed. But since our federal government has basically tossed out the constitution on its ear in this case,and since the Creator is not in the thinking of most politicians, we must rely on the states to undo what has been done.

Frankly, federal or states level period, it never should have been an issue. Murder is murder. Life is not something that we get to decide by majority rule. Unfortunately, we are placed in the situation where that is the case; and, I trust the states to revoke things before I trust the federal government.

Sorry. This question was settled over one hundred and forty years ago.

Your faith in the states to uphold unalienable rights is misplaced, and negates the very reason for the existence of our nation.

To wit, the founding paragraph of America:

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men...

For America to be a just nation, and for the Union to endure, unalienable rights MUST be assured for all persons. All, on every square inch of our territory.
