It should be a STATE issue. Not Federal. Thats what he is saying. And he is RIGHT.
If the right to life is a state issue, shouldn't the right to vote be, too? Shouldn't both you and Fred be supporting the repeal of the 15th amendment, which mandated that states allow all citizens, regardless of race, to vote?
After all, if state rights take priority over the right to life, certainly they take priority over the right to vote as well. Right?
