Apparently you don't understand the democratic process. You see our Constitution now allows women to vote for people who are called "representatives". These represenatives then go to Washington where they make legislation that produces laws under which we live. Women may vote for whomever they choose, so you see, it is possible for a woman to vote for a man to represent her and that man may then vote for or against abortion legislation. If the representative votes in a way which displeases that woman, she may then vote against him.

Unfortunately, no one elected the Supreme Court which has created a law that allows self-centered or ignorant women to murder their own children. This law flies in the face of the will of the majority of American women who oppose the murder of over a million unborn children a year.

Hope this helps.

Wrong. -- The USSC said that states can't prosecute abortion as murder till there is a viable victim, a baby. And even then, it said, the murder must be prosecuted with due process, before a jury.

States cannot just flat out prohibit abortion, any more than they can 'prohibit' other self imposed acts. You own your body, not the state.

Hope this helps.
