Yes, a shame. Unfortunately, there are some groups who seem to prefer other options- like a Human Life Amendment, or incremental steps, or returning it to the states by overturning Roe.
I think the justices should be charged with high treason for directly violating the Constitution.
In the meantime, prolifers need to educate the public and each other about the fact that innocent human life is protected by the Constitution, and that abortion was never a constitutional right.
I find many passionate, experienced prolifers who do not seem to know anything about the Constitution, its history, and/or the RTL Act. In fact, I have yet to meet one, except at FR, who understand the illegality of what took place. I myself thought the RTL Act was the Human Life Amendment up until I started paying attention to Duncan Hunter and read the document. I even meet academics and lawyers who know nothing about the RTL Act. Most people seem to think they can only argue against abortion on moral grounds, and don’t realize that the Constitution is on our side.
I am amazed by the amount of pro-lifers who believe abortion should be illegal because the unborn are persons, yet they believe states should have the choice as to whether or not to protect these persons. States can’t take away God-given rights.
Let me invite you to Pro Life America. I’ve met some of the most conservative and dedicated pro-lifers there. Of course I’ve met some at Free Republic as well. :) I frequent both forums. There are pro-aborts to contend with but a solid pro-life majority. There are a couple liberals there who are also pro-life. If you send me a FReepmail, I’ll give you my screenname over there, as it is different.
