So you think women should be allowed to murder their un-born children on demand...?

Well let me ask you first:
Should states have a right to make their own laws on abortion?

If you answer "yes" to that question (as I believe most Constitutionalist conservatives would), you must then answer how the states' laws are to be implemented.

If Missouri's law, pre-Roe, provided that a medical panel would evaluate whether a woman truly had a severe medical condition that warranted an abortion to save her life, then that was Missouri's law. And Missouri's voters were free to vote for legislators to change that law, if they so wished.

But Roe v. Wade swept away Missouri's law. The reality today, post-Roe, is that under Court-diktat, any woman can get kill her unborn child for any reason, at any time in a pregnancy.

Do you think that is a better situation than what we had in Missouri, pre-Roe?
