It’s like saying that states should make the decision on slavery
They did. New York didn’t abolish slavery until 1827. Many people had come to from Free States years earlier.
And that was the law until the 13th amendment was passed specifically prohibiting slavery.
No. It’s like state laws applying to marriage, divorce.
Others have already raised the 13th Amendment. There seems to be this notion out there that it’s the job of the federal government to fix supposed excesses of the states. Not only is that contrary to federalism, but how do we think the feds are doing on their efforts to rule the whole country by fiat through the administrative state?
I’ve been appalled by the people calling for a national ban. Dodds was decided on precisely the ground that it’s not a national issue, and many in the right didn’t even wait until the ink was dry to start arguing that it is a national issue.
Well, yes — that’s exactly how it works. Very few people can be charged with murder under the Federal criminal code.
LBJ couldn’t have planned the democrat abortion policy better. It is long past time for black Americans to learn their history of Darwinism, Ota Benga, Eugenics and Margaret Sanger.
