They do all the above to people who want to buy a handgun in California.
But I think they should regulate abortion to extinction. Keep putting more and more restrictions on it until no one will want to get one anymore because they will have to go through a mile of paperwork and red tape.
Ah, push polls!
Interesting that even when they're pushing their butchery, the pro-aborts couldn't bring themselves to capitalize "god." Maybe they were thinking of Moloch.
She's written at length about the abortion she had when she was 22. I think that was her only child.
16. Women should not be allowed on juries where the accused is a stud.
deceived her own client? how so?
Yep, some of Rush's most timeless work there!Yeah, they are great. My brother is a BIG Rush fan and I'm going to send him those - even though the chances are he's seen it already...
BTW your web site is way cool, Meek :)
And thanks !
Reporter is careful not to mention that Weddington's client (the original Roe, McCorvey) not only now thinks the case was wrongly decided, but says that Weddington deceived her.Thanks for the info. I did a Google Search for Roe vs Wade "McCorvey" and found this jewel there. Very interesting. Here is an excerpt. Though it doesn't elaborate on deception, it does show McCorvey's conversion to a Pro-Lifer...
PS: I'm thinking of posting this on FR just for the record. Coming up on the anniversary of the decision, I think it would be very timely, etc.

Who is 'Jane Roe'?
Anonymous no more, Norma McCorvey no longer supports abortion rights
From CNN Interactive Writer Douglas S. Wood(CNN) -- Norma McCorvey won't be celebrating the 25th anniversary of the historic Roe vs. Wade decision that legalized abortion.
McCorvey is "Jane Roe," the pseudonym she assumed to remain anonymous as the lead plaintiff in the case that legalized abortion in the United States.
"I'm very sad (about the anniversary)," she told CNN Interactive in a telephone interview. "But this year, I've got so much to do, I don't have time to sit down and be sad."
Once an abortion-rights supporter, the 50-year-old McCorvey has switched sides: She's now a vocal anti-abortion activist. She has started a ministry called Roe No More to fight against abortion rights with the aim of creating a mobile counseling center for pregnant women in Dallas.
'I am Roe'
She began her association with one of the United States' most contentious and volatile sociopolitical issues in 1970, when she became the lead plaintiff in the class-action lawsuit filed to challenge the strict anti-abortion laws in Texas.
The case was appealed to the Supreme Court, which handed down its controversial ruling on January 22, 1973. The decision legalized the right to an abortion in all 50 states and sparked a political debate that remains charged to this day.
However, McCorvey, who was 21 when the case was filed and was on her third pregnancy, never had an abortion and gave birth to a girl, who was given up for adoption.
McCorvey went public with her identity in the 1980s and wrote a book about her life titled "I Am Roe: My Life, Roe v. Wade, and Freedom of Choice."
In the book, McCorvey, a ninth-grade dropout, describes a tough life, explaining that she suffered physical and emotional abuse as a child, spent some time in reform school in Gainesville, Texas, and was raped as a teen-ager. She was later beaten by a husband whom she married at age 16. She also tells of her alcohol and drug abuse, and experiences with lovers of both sexes.
Her first child, Melissa, was raised by her mother; her second child was raised by the father, and the couple agreed that McCorvey would never contact her.
She drifted through a series of dead-end jobs, including work as a bartender and a carnival barker. Once she went public with her story, she worked in several clinics where abortions were performed and did some public speaking, garnering publicity and a little bit of celebrity.
But in 1995, it all changed.
Abortion is not right and should be outlawed just as cold blooded murder is against the law.
It's his agenda.
Equating the right to keep and bear arms with the "right" to kill unborn children is one of the ways he attempts to discredit the RKBA.
