I believe that the Nazis were prosecuted under international war crimes laws that were in place at the time.
It was an answer to the question posed in post #8.
AMEN
You’re correct. It wasn’t on the dem ballot, but then, they had this one:
Democratic Party Question 3
Should Georgia adopt an income tax credit for home energy costs to support the economic security of our families?
66% of Republicans voting YES is good news, so long as we can count on over 30% of Democrats to vote in favor of a Personhood Amendment. Remember, if an amendment is put up to a vote, Democrats get to vote on it as well.
I was disappointed to see the amendment fail *among Republicans* in Athens-Clarke County, and to get such a tiny percentage margin among Republicans in Fulton, DeKalb and Gwinnett Counties.
“Thank the Lord above!”
Amen. I voted for it as well but can’t help but feel sad about the large number who voted against it - 34.30%.
I didn’t know that it was only on the Republican ballot. That takes some of the air out of it. :-(
“my question is: can murdering doctors and “mothers” be brought to justice? “
Punitive laws can’t be made retroactive, and no one is arguing for that.
We have thousands of cases of mass murders and crimes against humanity. If the unborn are persons and MILLIONS of persons have died at the direct hand of their killers, should there be no responsibility to go around?
“We have thousands of cases of mass murders and crimes against humanity. If the unborn are persons and MILLIONS of persons have died at the direct hand of their killers, should there be no responsibility to go around?”
Morally, yes. Legally, no.
Makes this song sound better and better every day:

If South the Would’ve Won - Hank Williams Jr.
If the South would’ve won we’d a had it made,
I’d prob’ly run for President of the Southern State.
The day Elvis passed away would be our national holiday,
If the South would a won we’d had a it made.
I’d make my Supreme Court down in Texas,
And we wouldn’t have no killers gettin’off free.
If they were proven guilty, then they would swing quickly,
Instead of writin’ books and smilin’ on T.V.
We’d all learn Cajun cookin’ in Louisiana,
And I’d put that capitol back in Alabama.
We’d put Florida on the right track ‘cause, we’d take Miami back,
And throw all them pushers in the slammer.
If the South would’ve won we’d a had it made,
I’d prob’ly run for President of the Southern States.
The day young Skynyrd died we’d show our Southern Pride,
If the South would a won we’d had a it made.
I’d have all the whiskey made in Tennessee,
And all the horses raised in those Kentucky hills.
The national treasury would be in Tupelo, Mississippi
And I’d put Hank Williams’ picture on one hundred dollar bills.
I’d have all the cars made in the Carolina’s,
And I’d ban all the ones made in China.
I’d have every girl and child sent to Georgia to learn to smile,
And talk with that southern accent that drives me wild.
I’d have all the fiddles made in Virginia
‘Cause they sure can make ‘em sound so fine.
I’m goin’ up on Wolverton mountain and see ol’ Clifton Clowers,
And have a sip of his good ol’ Arkansas wine.
Hey, if the South woulda won we’d had it made
I’d prob’ly run for President of the Southern States,
When Patsy Cline passed away that would be our national holiday,
If the South woulda won we’d a had it made.
If the South woulda won we’d a had it made.
Georgia, Is a Woomderful Place
Just try to convince those dead people, that Clinton dug up and taxed.
Ex post facto laws are specifically prohibited by the Constitution. And for me this has always been about stopping the butchery, not exacting vengeance.
Terrri Schiavo was executed under an ex post facto law in FL. They just called it a “civil law” to make it “legal.”
And we are depending on Floridians to right our ship of state??? A lot of America’s decline started the day Terri Schiavo was murdered by the state. And John Paul II died the next day.
I am glad to see that a majority of repubbies in Georgia still believe.
At the time of the commission, their crime was decriminalized (even declared a "right"). So that would be their defense.
However, we have a precedence in international justice in the Nuremberg process. Those prosecuted at Nuremberg had a stronger defense: not only were their actions legal, they were under orders.
I disagree with that. I believe that the war criminals should have been prosecuted under the laws of Nazi Germany.
But regardless of what I think, the "mothers" today should know that if they commit an abortion today, they will pay for it one day. The laws that they hide behind today won't protect them forever.
