Nonsense. It wasn’t the reasoning of Blackmun. It was an admission that in order to allow for abortion they had to strip away the humanity of the child to even have ANY way of overcoming the Constitution’s most explicit provisions.
I think those who admit that the unborn child is a person and yet think that in America that child can still be “legally” killed are worse than Blackmun. They’ve gone one more large stride down the road to the complete destruction of liberty in America.
That’s right. Liberty’s very premise is that government’s abiding and paramount reason for being is the protection of innocent human life. ALL governments. At every level.
The current ignorance of America’s most fundamental principles among the people, even here on FreeRepublic, is appalling.
Which formed part of the basis for Blackmun's "reasoning" stripping the states of their historic and inherent police powers, then substituting a purported 14th Amendment right of women to kill their babies. Leftists use the 14th Amendment as the basis for unlimited federal powers in place of the states.
