Should abortion be a state-decided issue? If so, how long before a state will declare it illegal?

Question

The constitution CLEARLY states that all issues not clearly represented in the Constitution would be decided by the states. Since a woman's right to be a whore is not in the constitution, it SHOULD be a state law, so that if I think murder should be illegal, I could just move to another state.

I think the abortion issue has about 5 years left before we finally realize our mistake. We have killed more people than the Nazis, and that would also be millions more working people putting money into our failing Social Security system.

I say, by the year 2010, either Abortion will be nationally outlawed or at least a handful of states will have made it illegal. What do you think?

Answer 1

I always find it so amazing how some can justify the extermination of a human life by trying to marginalize it.

Ending a human life in the womb maybe legal, but so is 28% interest on your credits cards, doesn't make it right.

People that think abortion is OK, have no respect for life or themselves, they are already dead inside.

There is no choice, only a higher authority chooses who lives or dies. I pity those poor wretches that decide to exterminate the human life that was given to them, for they must live with their own conscience.

That life dd not need to be squashed like some bug on the wall. How pathetic that our society has come to this point, why not just kill old people too if they are inconvenient us?

Answer 2

So having an abortion is comparable to the nazi genocide of the jews?

What laws are you talking about anyway? the "whore" law, do you mean the legalization of prostitution in Nevada? You support that, then? That's an issue not decided upon by the constitution, so the state of Nevada decided for themselves.

Many states have already made abortion illegal, but the Supreme Court of the United States (who is commissioned with interpreting the Constitution) has said it is not illegal.

Answer 3

I agree with your interpretation of the Constitution. I disagree with your hostile tone. If the issue is returned to the states, then I would think that a few states will make abortion illegal but most including all the larger ones will not. The next issue will then be will the states where it is illegal then start down an un-constitutional path of making travel past their respective borders illegal if done with the intent of having an abortion.

Answer 4

i do not understand why some human beings imagine that. you're right, abortion should not be a states concern, because state governments don't have the right to restriction or deny the constitutionally secure man or woman rights of human beings any more effective than the federal authorities does. As an aside, i believe each state has that is own self reliant penal code which criminalizes homicide. it truly is why, in some states, murderers can get deadly injection, even as in different states, they are searching at existence imprisonment. In result, homicide is prohibited for the time of the country, yet it truly isn't any longer because of the federal authorities made it so.

Answer 5

Roe v. Wade will never be overturned. What many people do not understand is that Roe v. Wade was not a decision legalizing abortion. It was a decision prohibiting any governmental agency from intervening in a woman's healthcare decisions. Roe will NEVER be overturned. If it is, that opens the door to the government interfering in your personal life in a way you cannot begin to imagine.

The states will never be given the right to make the abortion decision, because whether you like it or not, whether you agree that it is the woman's choice or not, abortion is a medical procedure. And medical procedures in this country are not legislated.

Answer 6

Actually, if Roe v Wade is overturned and the issue sent back to the states, I can't see California, Illinois, New York or several other large states enacting any restrictions at all.

So overturning Roe won't result in much change for a large majority of people.

Then again, the issue will be back in the hands of the voters, for better or for worse.

Answer 7

I think you are wrong in both your outlook on abortion and on how badly outnumbered you are in your anti choice stance. If it were left up to the majority rule [as in states making their own laws] it would be legal in all instances.

I'm old enough to remember when women didn't have the right to choose and I will never let that happen again.

Answer 8

people need to vote on weather or not wemon be alowed to have an abortion. they also need to relize that stem-cell research may lead to a cure for all types of cancer.

Answer 9

give it up,it has been decided and it is not murder. it is not illegal. don't we have enough real issues without worrying about peoples personal choices that do not effect your life?
