The abortion issue is complex. It shouldn’t be, in my opinion, but it is.

Saying that, I understand the disagreements we have regarding it outside of the sanctity of life issue. But I will leave that one to rest for later.

Let’s talk freedoms and free will and legalities, from Fed to State.

1) If the act of abortion is not considered murder or killing of human life in a legal sense, I agree the Federal government should sit silent on the issue. There is no constitutional mandate to allow for the termination of human life for convenience.

We should never allow, when possible, the Fed to rule us without representation. Our States have the right, by sovereign mandate, to set legal standards within their borders, that do not conflict with constitutional rights of US citizens. This provides state citizens with direct representation of their will.

When a centralized government is allowed to dictate and enact legalities beyond the Constitution, the citizens become captive to less democratic freedoms. The agenda of the elite wealth rules the citizen.

If the act of abortion is allowed by a state, the people of that state have spoken.

2) Abortion can only be defined, in my opinion, as an act of healthcare when the life of the mother is in jeopardy. Convenience abortions based on no desire to have a child is not healthcare, it is irresponsible convenience. Free contraceptive options are available to every woman in our country that stop the conception of life from occurring.

3) Healtcare for the mother, whose pregnancy is jeopardizing her life, does not include the recognized use and definition of abortion. It might involve terminating a pregnancy within the scope of a doctors Hippocratic oath to protect life.

4) The idea that a mother who is bleeding out during a pregnancy not being tended to by a doctor or hospital because of abortion laws is a fabricated lie. The Hippocratic oath would serve the health of the mother regardless to save her life, the baby’s life or any decision needed in the decision. No abortion ban mandate in any state would stop that.

5) The abortion law’s on the ballot in many states allows for open ended convenience abortions, with many up to 9 months.

A woman has a right to her body, as does a man. We have the right and freedoms to make bad life decisions. Legally terminating a result of a bad decision is careless at the least.

As a species, we move the barometer to accommodate less responsible behavior because WE become more important than the consequence of our actions. Shame on us.

My opinion as a man, husband, father of 4, grandfather of 10.

My position in life is to instill responsibility, not accommodate irresponsibility through excuse.

That is ALL we can do. The consequence cannot be ignored. There will be consequences in our life.

All good. Hope all are well.

Great post PW.
The misleading and dishonest language used by the left on issues, including abortion, are a big part of the problem. If you ask me if a woman has the right to make decisions about her own body, I would answer yes. If you ask me if woman should have reproductive rights, the answer is also yes.
If you ask me if it’s ok to kill an unborn child, it’s obviously no. These three are not the same. The word “abortion” has been replaced with these other terms to appear that they are concerned about the mother’s health and not just their vote. Besides, the word abort is defined as “to put a premature end to” or to “stop”. For something to stop, it has to have been started….even if it’s a human life.
The same issue applies to gun rights. When you refer to the same type gun that my 15 year old deer hunts with as an assault rifle, you are intentionally misleading the public. A single shot .22 can be an “assault rifle” if it’s used for the wrong reason. The gun that was used in the laughable and staged video of Waltz, he was using a….wait for it…..semi-automatic weapon.
The left has relied on the uninformed public to win elections for years. Thankfully, it appears the people of this country did not fall for it this time.
