This is what happens when people place themselves above God. The issue is not that a woman can do with her body as she pleases; something I agree with. Instead, that the body that is inside her body, can’t be murdered. The child in the womb has no way of providing self-protection. They also have no control over how they are conceived. So why give them a death sentence just because the woman, or man, perceives them to be an inconvenience? Stretch this out to its logical conclusion, and you get the euthanization of the old and weak.
I agree, the federal government does not have the right to probe and prod anybody’s body. So here is the skinny: Make abortion/infanticide a felony murder charge, and prosecute those involved.

I remember in an early debate Ron Paul stated that while in training for pediatrics they stressed that a doctor of such had 2 patients, not 1.

Carl, great point. Some people have a hard time saying that a baby in the womb is a person.

I believe the butchers bill in Britain is 105,000 a year. Now I do not hold with the argument about women’s rights to choose. If you get pregnant by “accident” ( and I except rape from this ) well there is no excuse.
I am a Christian but a realist, sometimes medically there are valid reasons. I will never accept that abortion is a right, and yes the unborn have as many rights as the rest of humanity.
Another result of a decline in moral and spiritual values in the western world, but murder in my eyes.
