The problem with that, Arthur, is that we can’t go back in time.
I wish that we could, to be honest, because we could really use a do over on any number of things.
But this is a case of you can’t put the genie back in the bottle, or even there is no putting the toothpaste back in the tube.
The procedure exists, and based upon how the law and politics work in this country, and based on what people in general think about the law and politics, I don’t see any way to undo it entirely.
I do think it is possible to reduce its frequency to almost none, but even that task faces similar hurdles, and is truly difficult as we can see from trying to get it done so far.
So you support abortion for rape and incest.
At what point would that allow a woman to abort the baby if abortion is illegal? Is it after she proves she was raped, after a rape conviction, or is it something she can just bring up anytime.
Does the incest have to be rape, or just anytime a sister and brother, or a cousin have sex that results in pregnancy.
Do you vote for the libertarian party? Is that why you want to convince conservatives that social liberalism cannot be rolled back once the left wins a victory like Roe v Wade?
The societal problem—aside from the 57 million dead people—is precisely that our law currently authorizes both the government and private citizens to commit murder. Nobody is safe.
Until abortion is treated under the law for what it actually is—homicide—we do not have a legitimate government. We have a gangster cabal in charge, not the U.S. Constitution.
There is no tube, no toothpaste. There is a criminal government, and its eventual fate will be that of other criminal governments.
Tolerating abortion is not a path to peace. It is a path to revolution.
