Ha, somehow I knew we'd bump into each other on this thread, EV.

As I've said before, there is no Federal law against murdering people after they're born. Or raping them, or mutilating them. We trust in the good sense of Americans, acting through their state legislatures, not to legalize those behaviors.

And I likewise trust in the good sense of Americans not to legalize murdering people before they are born.

You obviously do not so trust them, and on that point we are going to have to agree to disagree.

Any officer of any state or national government that will not provide equal protection and due process in defense of the God-given, unalienable right to life of the people, all the people, is guilty of exactly the same thing as King George. Like him, they are tyrants and have abdicated any legitimate claim to any right to govern anybody.

"He has abdicated government here, by declaring us out of his protection and waging war against us." -- the Declaration of Independence

We trust in the good sense of Americans, acting through their state legislatures, not to legalize those behaviors.

Well, that's exactly what certain states did, which opened the door to the butchering of more than fifty million innocent, defenseless little boys and girls, because a whole generation of politicians and lawyers decided to follow the unconstitutional, immoral opinion of a couple of judges, rather than to follow the Constitution, in keeping with their own oaths.

As Ronald Reagan liked to say, in speaking of another band of tyrants:

"Trust, but verify."

In any case, the absolute requirements of the Constitution of the United States, which every officer of government, in every branch in this country must swear to God to support, are not optional. They are imperative.

"No person shall be deprived of life without due process of law."

"No State shall deprive any person of life without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
