If Florida has enough bong-huffing single women to overturn its abortion restrictions in an initiative, this country is through.

They'll come out to vote for abortion. But they're not going to vote in every election.

Throw in child mutilation too. The commies attached that to Issue 1 as well on top of punching it into the Constitution.

Given we are a constitutional republic, how are referenda compatible with representative republics? It seems they are neat as can be a pure democratic form of governing.

“So let’s do it” you say. Do you really want to live in a state where it’s legal to slaughter full term babies for any reason?

Do you want to live in a state that allows minors to slaughter their full term babies without the knowledge of their parents?

If your answer is “yes”, I’d say you were an evil SOB.

When the most important issue to half the electorate is being able to kill babies that society is doomed.

Blame our founders. We are leaving abortion up to the states. The American people want to legalize abortion.

The sanctity of life is a plank in the GOP platform. Too bad so few GOP elected officials adhere to their party’s platform.

That was a BS study. To convict children as being the source of crime is reprehensible. It’s the parents.

The left will rue putting abortion into state constitutions. This will help single men who aren’t ready to become parents. They will be able to break free of the financial tether the courts are using against them. When abortion becomes a constitutional right, it applies equally. Even if they claim “a woman’s right to abortion,” it’s a new world now and anyone can be a woman - even an impregnating one. There will have to be an accommodation made to facilitate the right to abortion to the non-pregnant partner. A legal separation if you will, that permanently revokes parenthood, without interference.

There’s one way to get liberals to be “pro-life” overnight.

Just encourage black people and illegal immigrants to get abortions.

Slavery wasn’t left up to the states.

“This will help single men who aren’t ready to become parents.”

Since this is a state constitutional amendment, men should use it to further rights of the father.... men should be able to not pay child support if they don’t want the child, right?

Hopefully, this will be a wake up call for women, and they will keep their legs closed until marriage.

Not really, but that’s provided for in The Constitution.

We are a fallen country populated by fallen men.
