The bill is unconstitutional and immoral.
It CODIFIES PERMISSION in the WV statutes to murder ALL the babies, as long as they are murdered on time, and by the rules.
Sorry, but well-regulated mass murder is still mass murder.
No celebratory fireworks from me.
reject as unconstitutional any federal act or decision that attempts to overrule it.
We have more than forty years worth of experience with the folks pushing these kinds of bills through, so we already know that they won't fight back against the federal courts when they inevitably overrule them, as they have over and over again concerning this sort of legislation.
In the first place, they've already surrendered the only real moral, constitutional and legal arguments against abortion, so they have absolutely nothing to fight back with anyhow.
And secondly, they themselves are a bunch of judicial supremacists.
So, in closing, while this may look like a "pro-life" victory to the naive and ignorant, it is not. It amounts to nothing more than the means to raise more money for the "pro-life" industry, and finagle more Republican votes from those poor souls who have again been fooled into believing that they have accomplished something.
OK, well I agree with you there. Abortion is murder and infanticide, so I should have qualified my praise. Standing up to the feds is a victory, but not the final victory.
The first victory is state rejection of federal meddling in the abortion issue. The final victory is influencing the state to stop abortions altogether.
But don’t make the mistake of thinking, as so many do, that the answer is unconstitutional federal meddling into the abortion issue since we all know it was the feds who overturned state laws that banned abortions in the first place.
