Abortion Meets Newton’s Laws of Motion
American Thinker.com ^ | May 20, 2019 | Brian Joondeph

Newton’s third law of motion states, “For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.” Although Newton was describing the movement of physical objects, it turns out his laws are also predictive of political issues, the latest example being abortion.

Think of Newton’s third law as overreach and pushback. In politics we see this frequently. Sequential presidents are often of different political parties and philosophies, meaning that after four, or usually eight years of action in one direction, there is an equal push in the opposite direction with a new administration of a different political party.

Abortion provides a good example of Newton’s law, particularly this year with legislative pushback, an equal and opposite reaction to in this case, Democrat overreach.

Abortion was in a steady state, a truce of sorts between opposing views, after Roe v. Wade was handed down by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1973. The high court ruled that a right to privacy trumped states’ rights to regulate abortion, resulting in a court-determined right to abortion during the first two trimesters of pregnancy.

Alyssa Milano can have a full-term abortion in New York if she so pleases, but not in Alabama. That’s the principle of federalism.

Which will not apply, if the fetus is deemed to be a human life, and rightly so.

i am not asking women to stop having abortions... i am just asking that i not have to pay for them. i would rather donate to an orphanage of sorts.

plus if it is a woman’s body, than a man would just be liable for half the cost of abortions rather than child support... if we can make a man responsible for rearing costs, why not the mother?
