>>>So, you’d make it a federal crime to intentionally terminate a new life for any reason at any time? That’s complete nonsense!<<<
Perhaps you should think through your arguments before you make them, especially on legal grounds.
First, I ask why that is nonsense. If an unborn child is a human, why should you allow that child to be murdered. Simply because it’s easy to do and the child won’t protest too much? Nice!
Or perhaps you have other reasons?
When it comes down to it, our government allows murder on 3 grounds:
1) In self-defense
2) by no-fault accident
3) by means of insanity
Numbers 2 and 3 remove personal culpability. This clearly does not apply to abortion, as it is pre-meditated. Number 1 would apply to the instance of a mother whose life is threatened by her pregnancy. At that point, terminating her pregnancy would be the equivalent of self-defense, and in that case, permissable.
I see no reason to not apply the 14th Amendment to abortion if you believe that the unborn are truly human. If not, let the abortions continue. There’s no reason to limit them in that case.
