I guess that the USSC figures that since they get away with un-Constitutional gun laws, now they can start dictating how and when we do things to our bodies.

Very bad precedent.

I wonder if they will begin telling women how studies are showing the link from abortion to breast cancer?

48 days ago, my wife delivered twins that were premature by 11 weeks. These babies were about 3 and a 1/3 lbs each. At that age, they are just beyond the point where they could be legally aborted, barely into the third trimester. Either twin could put their hand into my size 13-1/2 wedding band.

The twins were not the earliest kids in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The baby in the Isolette (which is basically a crib with a plexiglas shell to keep out germs and to stabilize air temperature) was just over 1 pound.

Fifteen years ago, my twins probably would have been delivered, and then passed on. Five years ago, the technology was barely there to rescue the one pounder.

Now, right now my twins have rights as living people. They have since come home, now around 6 lbs. Our "neighbor" has living rights as a living person, even though he is still on life support. What I can't fathom is that now that is he outside, in the "cold cruel world", he is safer legally than if he were on the inside of someone's uterus.

48 days ago, when they put the ventilator on my second twin, she cried, and she struggled. It was obvious that she had an opinion, and she didn't like being on the ventilator. Who could blame her?

Please consider whether or not that "fetus", "baby", "etc", is truly just another part of a woman's body. My direct evidence from my own twins disagrees with that supposition.

I wish you a good day.

Actually the SC doesn't care what you do to your body. Neither do we. We are concerned however about what you do to your babies body.

(And before you bring it up, someone being raped does not justify that someone committing murder of an innocent person)

It's not about the mother's body but about the baby's body. Two separate bodies...get it?

If you don't then how about this: Don't force the baby and nobody will force you.
