The killing of innocent unborn is not a tennant of libertarinaism since it removes the one absolute individual right. The right to life.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

You are wrong. Way wrong.

Libertarians - like Ron Paul - see no problems with abortions being left up to individual states to decide. The “right to life”, you say?

Show me in the Constitution where that right is.

“....is not a tennant of libertarinaism....”

WADR friend, I believe the word is TENNET.

A tennant is one who rents a property in which to live or conduct business.

The Fifth Amendment?

..nor shall any person... be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.

Also, the Fourteenth:... nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

The problem, obviously, is that "personhood" has yet to be defined. The Human Life Amendment is designed to do just that. Pretty sad that in the 21st. century we still haven't forced ourselves to acknowledge the humanity of an unborn child. The Bill of Rights is where the "right to life" is brought up and I'm pretty sure in the eighteenth century it didn't occur to society that such a given had to be spelled out. And we're progressing???
