"Something to also consider (if you already haven't: If a pregnant woman's fetus is killed, say in a car accident, the criminal can be charged with a crime, vehichular manslaughter, even if the woman lives"


I prosecuted a person who killed a pregnant women while driving intoxicated. Two counts of criminal vehicular homicide. Two consecutive sentences. Yet abortion in this state is legal.

One can only shake one's head sometimes at the 'logic' of the legal system. Congrats on the conviction.

If the woman kills the baby, it is "legal", isofar as one considers un-Constitutional decisions like Roe vs. Wade to be binding upon state legislatures.

Essentially, society has become Babylonian: no longer does the Christian ethic of protecting innocent life prevail, but instead, women in particular are allowed to kill innocent human life. That's wrong. And men need to stand up and say, "No more"!
