“Pro-choice” for individuals or “pro-choice” for states, either way, the babies are dead, and so is the heart of our founding documents.

A federal approach to the issue of murder of the preborn is not going to work. How many millions of dollars were spent passing the partial birth abortion ban (of no effect)? We will not have a true pro-life judiciary in my lifetime either. And a constitutional convention would be a disaster (hello socialist Newstates of Amerika!) Leaving the matter to the States is a longshot but much better than a Constitutional amendment, or waiting 300 years for a federal judge who actually believes in personhood of the preborn.

I’m not generally an incrementalist - all the incremental “victories” under RINO rule the last decade have given us even more socialism - but in this case, every single preborn baby saved is a victory. If Idaho or South Dakota want a complete ban on abortion, they should pass it and enforce it. Then they should call out the state police and/or state national guard if needed.

Supporters of the federal approach to banning abortion have never explained how the Constitution permits federal law enforcement to enforce such a ban against private individuals within the several States of the Union. Would they have the doctor, the mother, or the payer arrested? On what charges? How does murder affect interstate commerce? Or would they arrest the state Governor for refusing to protect life, liberty and property? Are they prepared to declare martial law in order to enforce the ban?
