KY Supreme Court denies attorney general's emergency effort to stop abortion services

LOUISVILLE, Ky. —

The Kentucky Supreme Court has rejected the attorney general's emergency effort to stop abortion services in the state.

This comes just days after a court order allowed them to resume.

Kentucky AG Daniel Cameron, a Republican who is running for governor, asked the state Court of Appeals to block the lower court’s ruling, saying every day that the laws are suspended means "more unborn lives will be lost."

In a two-paragraph order released Tuesday night, Chief Justice John Minton said, without elaborating, that they were denying Cameron's request, keeping abortions legal in the state.

Cameron responded to the decision on Twitter. He said his team will make a case in Jefferson County Circuit Court to have the laws reinstated.

This is the responsibility of the legislature.

The legislature passed a law. The judges have blocked it.

The court blocked a law without comment.

We are seeing now that the Maoists will ignore even the Supreme court when they don’t get the answer they want. No rules apply when their goals are at stake.

We have a lot more work to do. Commie judges and justices need to be replaced. Maybe their homes need to be protested too.

See how the game is played? If the Left doesn’t like a law or decision, they ignore it and nobody does anything. If, however, someone doesn’t like a law or decision that the Left makes, the Left arrests and persecutes them.

” He said his team will make a case in Jefferson County Circuit Court to have the laws reinstated.”

After the KY SC rejected it? The mistake was allowing the hack judge to overreach in the first place. Now they are in the soup.

Exactly how it was under obama, a black robed tyrant rules over us and we are obliged to do as he says. Damn the legislature and constitution, the robed one is king.

The Attorney General should ignore the courts and prosecute anyone or any entity that violates the law that was duly passed by the legislature. It’s really just that simple. The courts are clearly acting in an unconstitutional manner.

WWADD?

What Would A Democrat Do? They would send the State Police to raid the clinics to verify that all their paperwork was correct and up to date. Clinics would be closed until the State have the opportunity to thoroughly review all paperwork, paper and paperless. This means seizing all computers and electrical devices that may have been used for communication. Of course other violations maybe discovered during this review process.......leading to the owners’ of the clinics homes being raided, owners dragged before Grand Juries and issuance of subpoenas for their lawyers records......

The legislature already passed a law - the court blocked it - that is what is at issue.

As an addendum, if Cameron really wants to be our next governor he’d better heed my advice.

I don’t know that responding to lawlessness with lawlessness gets you anywhere. Especially since no judge would honor an indictment under a law that has an injection against it that was upheld by the state Supreme Court.

On what constitutional grounds are they blocking this law?

Apparently they believe you have a “right to privacy” in the effort to kill children.
