For those who are anti-choice: have you ever read Roe v Wade?

Question

Just curious. I haven't yet met one anti-choicer who can name the important provisions of Roe.

Answer 1

THIS is a great question. You can also ask W if he knows more than two facts about stem cell research. Well, actually, you can just ask him if he knows two facts at all, about anything . . . . As for mrknositall - so you think a one cell living organism ( okay I will give you a multicelled living organism that has been around for a couple of months ) is a living thing? Not hardly, as it can't live outside the womb.

Answer 2

The Constitution enumerates our rights to life, liberty, and happiness. Any law or ruling denying ANYONE their right to life (with the exception of the death penalty, covered in the Fifth Amendment) is null and void, as it is unconstitutional.

The only time privacy is even alluded to is in the Fourth Amendment, which forbids unlawful searches and seizures.

An unborn human being is still a human being. Any laws that permit the killing of said human are null and void.

Life begins at conception, not before (for the jokers who like to say what about sperm and ova), and not some time after.

Women do NOT have the fundamental right to abortion. Period. Besides, abortion EXPLOITS women, so how can pro-lifers be anti-woman?

I don't care what you do to your body so long as no one else is harmed--how's that? I don't care if you have an abortion so long as the baby isn't harmed!

Answer 3

Actually, Roe was partially overturned by Planned Parenthood v. Casey in 1992. And several cases since then have further tweaked the boundaries of what is allowed or required.

Answer 4

Killing an innocent child, you mean that imporatant provision.
Even the lady who sued for the abortion now wishes she has not, is that not some proof that it was in error.

It is based on invasion of privacy issue which is silly at best.
It was done on a 3/4 vote and almost did not pass and would never pass today if it come back to the court on a new case.

Next the biggest issue of all is the states right issue, where the federal government does not have the right or authority to rule on it, since this should be a state issue, since it is not some power given to the federal government to rule on this, that is why they went to privacy issue to make it a federal issue.

Since then we have killed and tortured more babies than Hilter ever killed everyone in his death camps. Pro choice people are worst than Hitler at his best.

Answer 5

Listen, I'm pro-abortion, but anyone who's actually read the opinion can and should tell you that it was complete, total and utter B.S.

Penumbras and emanations? That has absolutely no basis in the Constitution or in law. Come on. Everybody knows what was going on there.

Give me the opportunity and I'll vote for it. And if you believe it's right, others will vote for it too and we can get this done the proper way.

Answer 6

You will get plenty of hate here but not from me, I have never read it or even part of it, I am deciding my position on what I feel is right. My stand, abortion is a piss-poor means of birth control it absolutely takes a life. However that has to be weighed against the rights of the impregnated female and should be ruled in her favor. I think that the government has no business legislating morality and this is really a morality question. So while not pro abortion I am against any legislation against it.

Answer 7

I've been an attorney since 1993, so I've had occasion to read the decision. As the saying goes, just because its legal doesn't make it right.

Answer 8

I know this: Killing an unborn child is murder. I don't need a court judgment to tell me that.
