The coming civil war over abortion: This time, it's not over slavery

It wasn't over slavery the last time either. That is just useful propaganda created to justify the invasion of states. It was after the fact excuse making for Dictatorial excess.

White woman are upset that fewer black babies will be aborted.

There fixed it.

Look this is nothing like slavery and don’t even make the comparison

No human being is indentured and forced to do labor and his property of another human being in this case

The hyperbole in you media types is completely and utterly pathetic

Now on the issue of life it is a critical issue of importance to the moral fabric of this or any society

The forces of life mostly Christian are loving kind generous and patient

We use kindness and patience in our protesting to try to convince little girls not to murder their baby

The other side minions of Satan have to take up the position of trying to convince little girls to murder their baby merely for “convenience”

Let them have at it

There will be no shooting war with 700,000 over young and best man dead

There will be no families put it against families shooting at each other

There will be no constitutional amendments passed two for bid things that went on

This is a spiritual war

This is a war of words and actions

I’m going to disagree with you here. Of course it was over slavery. Lincoln did not even appear on the ballot in the slave states (sound familiar?) Virtually all of the politics of the 1850s was over slavery. Southerners were afraid that the new Republican party was going to restrict slavery. There was no Constitutional way to end slavery in South short of Constitutional amendment which of course the south would never agree too.

Lincoln couldn’t say the war was over slavery because he had no legal way to achieve that end, so for the first half of the war the goal was to preserve the Union. For the first part of the war the army was ordered to return runaway slaves to their owners. Lincoln then seized on the idea that the slaves were helping the southern war effort and could legally be declared ‘contraband’ and not returned to their owners. From that, Lincoln moved to the Emancipation Proclamation which carefully excluded slaves in states that hadn’t seceded (MO, MD, KY, DE) and areas under Union control (parts of TN & LA).

Bottom line, whatever might be said, the Civil War was all about slavery. The parallels with the abortion debate are striking. At the same time that you have states (NY & VA) guaranteeing abortion up to the moment of birth (and perhaps a bit after) and lighting up buildings celebrating the fact, you have other states banning the procedure in hopes of reversing a SCOTUS decision which discovered the “right” hiding in a penumbra of a right to privacy.

‘It wasn’t over slavery the last time either.’

yeah, sure; if you say so...

The article ended by saying “that hell hath no fury like that of the militant pro-abortionists.”

Hell hath no fury like Demons deprived of their innocent blood sacrifice.

If you don't think hell itself (and the people on this earth that serve it) are behind this, you are sadly mistaken....

Roe v. Wade’s overturn would have to consider the right to privacy as underpinning the original USSC decision. In the absence of such an explicit Constitutional (4th amendment) right, R.vW. would appear doomed and the abortion issue would return to the states for a bunch of individual legislative/judicial resolutions...pretty much the way 2nd amendment issues continue to be (hopefully) resolved.

No war. No way.
