Dear Petronski,

Good post. Mr. Thompson supported constitutional amendments for national and federal issues. Traditionally, criminal law has mostly been the province of the states.

Myself, I will not rest until explicit protection of the unborn is enshrined in the Constitution. However, I can respect and count as allies for now those who prefer only to overturn Roe and return the matter to the states.

The editorial line of the Washington Times is often like this. A lot of times, they just don’t really get it.

I just posted that a prohibition on abortion is not a matter of criminal law, but about prohibiting government from passing a law (allowing abortion) that takes away the inalienable rights of the pre-born.

Have you ever thought about it from that perspective, rather than from the rights of the woman to kill her baby?
