Consider this regarding Scott Peterson [Vanity]

Posted on 12/13/2004 3:23:03 PM PST by bushisdamanin04

Scott Peterson is going to death row, in part, for killing his unborn son. Laci Peterson, on the other hand, was free to kill that very same unborn son without suffering a legal penalty of any type.

Food for thought.

"Food for thought"

I think my brain would starve.

Women's rights and men's rights are two separate things. You know, equal protection under the law.

Wow! Pretty deep!

That means Peterson should be set free, right? I mean, like, they want to kill him and stuff!

In a drunken one-night stand, the jury conceived Scott Peterson.

They regret their mistake, and they're going to abort him.

I have made this same argument for months with several pro-choicers who say that Peterson should fry.

True, as per the rules:

1. A female may, at anytime before her baby is born, have it killed.
2. No male, without permission of a female, may cause her baby to be killed before it is born. A male who does so shall be sentenced to prison.
3. No male may have standing to save the life of a mother's baby if she wants it killed before birth. Males who attempt to save the life of a baby before it is born shall be sentenced to prison.

Actually, after the second trimester in California, she couldn't have aborted the child without facing criminal penalties as well. She would have had to attempt to deliver the child.

No, that is not true. The Supreme Court cases of Roe, Bolton, and Carhart assure that a woman can abort her child at anytime up until the baby has 100% cleared the woman's body. Bolton held that a woman can abort even for emotional reasons and the decision is wholly between the woman and her doctor, and Carhart extends that to PBAs.

Could you provide a link to the California law which you believe outlaws abortion after the 2nd trimester? Thanks.

The real strange twist in the law is that a woman can decide to abort or not but the father has no say in the matter but is financially responsible if the woman chooses to keep the baby. So a man is told he should have kept it in his pants, but if anyone tells a woman she should have kept her knees together he is not only crude but in violation of Supreme Court doctrine.

Very well said.
