Once the government is granted the power to make a decision, there is no way to control the end result of the decision. Had the Court given the government the right to intervene in abortion decisions, it would have paved the way to a bureaucratic slaughter of the innocents, as China has indeed already done. If you think that’s not true, recall all the nasty propaganda from the supporters of the current administration when they discussed Sarah Palin’s decision to continue the pregnancy that gave her a baby with Down’s Syndrome.
This has got to be the strangest argument I have ever seen about abortion. The fact is that abortion was illegal in most states for the majority of this country’s existence. In most states, it was a serious felony to knowingly procure an abortion.
