I understand and respect your opinion, but I must be honest about this. In a thread some time ago I said that I do not value the lives of people who torture dogs. To me the lives of those people are worth zero. Likewise, Tiller’s life is worthless to me because of his actions. From a practical standpoint, this means I won’t join in condemning the guy who made him go away.

The right answer is to restore the rule of law, to discredit Supreme Court excesses, and to pack the court with Justices who believe in the Constitution as written. Those who think race, foreign laws, or changing community values should be a factor in interpreting the law have no business on the Court, and we need to get decent people who believe in written laws back on the Supreme Court, where they belong. With Jutices who believe in the Constitution, Roe will be overturned, and this issue can be decided democratically - as it should have been in the first place.

Joining obama and liberals in abandoning the rule of law is exactly the wrong answer, even to this challenge.

A Supreme Court that follows the US Constitution as written is the first half of the answer. The second half is finding a better way for citizens to cause the Constitution to be invoked (to avoid problems with Presidential citizenship, for example).
