Iowa Supreme Court Delivers Major Ruling on Abortion Waiting Period Law
-
There is no right to abortions under Iowa's state constitution.
-
Assuming Roe v Wade is overturned later this summer, some 26 States will make abortion outright illegal - instantly!
- Some have "trigger laws" - laws that only take effect once Roe v Wade is overturned
- Some have already passed legislation that far exceeds the current SCOTUS rules, but are expected to be upheld.
I will re-iterate my beliefs on this topic:
- Abortion as birth-control is barbaric and an anathema to my moral compass...
- "Exceptions" for rape & incest are absurd - this would be the ONLY area of law where a living being (a fetus) can be punished (with a death sentence) for the crimes of their father!!
- Some (many) abortions are NOT for simple birth control - there are complications (malformations, changes in the fetal and/or mother's overall health. These kinds of abortions do not offend my moral being...
- I believe that my views on abortion are good for me and my life
- I do not believe that I have the right (moral or legal) to enforce my morals onto other people. Some MAJOR RELIGIONS believe that abortion prior to "survivability" is OK - by their moral compass - and who am I to enforce my morals onto them?
- If it is determined that it is OK for one group to enforce their morals on other groups, be prepared when you have to start chanting prayers and smoking weed every time you cook a chicken (Rastafarianism & Santeria)! (Oh, and ALL male children MUST now be circumcised! It's a moral/religious requirement)????? Absurd... The STRENGTH of your religious belief doesn't increase (or decrease) the limits of how much you can force others to believe as you do...
