Bruce: We have laws for reasons - to give meaning and definition to the social contract among us.

P-M: “Changing the hearts of the Kansas citizens and passing the laws didn’t stop the killing. Did it?”

Bruce: Are you saying the laws are meaningless when it comes to abortion?

Are you saying we shouldn’t rather advocate for laws to be enforced - when they’re not?

P-Marlowe, are we to assume that you advocate anarchy in the abortion arena, as preferred to forcefully pushing legally, politically, morally and spiritually for just laws, and for those laws to be enforced?

“P-Marlowe, are we to assume that you advocate anarchy in the abortion arena, as preferred to forcefully pushing legally, politically, morally and spiritually for just laws, and for those laws to be enforced?”

Or just where do you draw that anarchy could be more effective line - at the (arbitrary) beginning of the 3rd trimester?

The laws are meaningless in the abortion arena as they are not enforced.

SB, are you saying that people haven't been advocating for them to be enforced?

Bruce, why do you keep playing the devil's advocate?

No.

When a law, any law, is ignored - or enforced unequally - unrest or disobedience is understandable.

And yes, I would say that whereas enforcement of the Supreme Court decision to allow abortion has been consistent - enforcement of laws to control abortion has been spotty at best.

That is a usurpation of power.

And although the public is notoriously complacent, eventually it will say "enough."
