You have it right that actually punishing the women is not the goal and may well be counterproductive. He has bought off on being a pro-lifer. Now he just needs to study on the subject and he will be fine.
Thank you for the well reasoned reply. I partially share your view that protection of the unborn is the ‘most important issue.’
Given what is going on all over the world and the turmoil in every country. There are many very serious issues and threats facing us, our families, friends and the country.
Protecting the unborn must share our attention and energies, and those of leaders, with those other issues.
Even though many of our leaders do appear to be rather useless.
