Why are they all obsessed with Roe v. Wade all of a sudden ?
Would, not being constitutional, and a clear bit of judicial activism, be good enough reason?
Good reason, like life?
The sacrosanct “right” of a woman to kill her unborn child should not be abridged.
Palmettos are so confused in the election of their “leaders”.
The American people are just as clueless as this baby boy.
So, not killing babies is not a good reason?
that's correct.
However, there is good reason - it was frivolous.
The inherent problem with this argument is the deceitful choice of words to describe these controversial rulings. The SC did not just “legalize” abortion - they claimed it was a Constitutional right therefore no state could make a law making it illegal. A precious Constitutional right!! Same with “gay marriage”.
So, Senator Graham - the good reason would be that it is was wrongly ruled a Constitutional right.
The federal employees didn’t believe in ‘stare decisis,’ when they invented Row v.s. Wade.
Up until then for the previous nearly 200 years the federal government had no athourty to effect the domeaic laws upon abortion or the extent of the protection of state laws against murder.
You can’t have it both ways, laws eyther mean what they meant when they were written or they mean nonthing at all, and we the people have no power over our government.
I hear Mark Davis subbing for Dennis today talking about this issue. He had a great point about how even atheists should know that Roe v Wade is a bad law, based on science alone. There can be no right to kill a baby in the womb. However, the way our constitution is worded, clearly Roe v Wade on its face is unconstitutional. Anything not enumerated in said Constitution needs to be left to the states.
So it would be legal to have states ban any form of abortion, and legal for a state to allow abortions up to the day of birth. Pro-abortion people need to understand the basics of constitutional law.
However, Mark was a tiny bit wrong on his biology. He was saying that until the embryo implants, it’s not going to necessarily become a baby. But once implanted, if no one stops it, it WILL BECOME A BABY.
Mark, the stats are slightly different, just for your knowledge: about 50-75% of created embryos will never be a baby, implanted or not, because they are aneuploid - chromosomes not the right configuration to allow life. Most of these, the great majority of aneuploid embryos, will die before the test can go pregnant. (Mot women have no idea egg met sperm that month.) But let’s say 40% (that is a guesstimate) of the aneuploid embryos will go on long enough to implant, and to cause a pregnancy test to turn +. Almost all aneuploid embryos will die before week 13, though. Causing great heartbreak to the pregnant couple, of course, the longer in the first trimester they go. Aneuploidies just don’t, CAN’T, live until the 2nd trimester (* exceptions below) so they don’t become babies. They never could, and Gd knew this already.
*Less than 10% (probably less than 5%) of aneuploid embryos become babies, and they are the ones we know about, chromosomal abnormalities like Down Syndrome and other syndromes. Some of them don’t allow a very long life. Believe it or not, people with Down Syndrome are some of the luckiest who were made from aneuploid embryos! They have a chance at a long happy life, some of them.
So, Mark, some embryos which implant still won’t make it. But that doesn’t change your argument that an implanted embryo should be left to Gd to proceed hopefully to baby! And on a personal note, I took an unwanted embryo (adopted, donated) which had not implanted, was in fact in a freezer for 4 years, and made a beautiful little girl out of her! So even unimplanted embryos can become people!
Nobody can find the Federal power to say one thing or the other on eyther of them in the U.S. Constitution.
That means both powers were reserved to the people and their states.
The lawless Federal injustice system userped this power just like countless other powers stolen by the lawless federal employees.
That is the true issue we have to fight to restore our republic. Judges that can userp our rights to govern ourself on the basis of unwritten or ‘implyed’ clauses have unlimited power.
Amen. AMEN. AMEN! To that!
President Trump is TRYING to clear the benches, at least!
THOU SHALL NOT KILL.
There’s your reason, Linda. Straight from the Almighty.
What about the ‘living evolving’ constitution??
The idea is that as people get more and more educated than the previous generations they get smarter and smarter and get better ideas ‘what should have and not have been in the constitution’ ?
Like replacing the ‘bear arms’ with ‘a woman's right to choose’ ?
Doesnt the word ‘choose’ sound so liberatarian?
Everyone loves choices
