text: Until you understand that protection from abortion, like protection from any crime, is a positive right demanding legilsation, in this case federal legislation, then you will be seeking the wrong thing and misleading others. What I am saying is not apologetics. You are furiously defending your right to wrong in your legal interpretation. That does nothing for the unborn. The best legislatve option is not the impossible task of bringing police power to the first trimester of pregnancy in a way that does not touch miscarriages or ignore equal protection principles (which the courts will not allow anyway) but to bow to Pius XI and Marx about living family wages and pass a huge tax credit for children. My kid gets such a payment from Social Security because I am disabled and because I made good money its a good payment. I don't need such a tax credit, but most families with children deserve one, regardless of the likelihood of abortion.
