LOGIC FAILURES
Cowardly Supreme Court Refuses to Fix Faulty Logic & Flaky Ruling in Roe-v-Wade
The current draft decision indicates that the Court plans to abdicate its responsibility for upholding the constitution
By instituting chaos and legalizing extortion, torture, and vigilantism. The Roe-v-Wade decision was never perfect. In fact, it is barely functional and needs to be fixed.
If the draft becomes law, there will be 50 different rules about abortion — chaos
Then some states, like Texas, have written into their law that their jurisdiction goes beyond their boundaries. Finally, Texas allows people who have no direct interest to bring the woman to court and the woman has to pay even if she wins the case.
Two major problems with Roe
First, the reason for taking up the case was vague. It was based on some privacy issue which is hard to follow. It should be based on the 13th Amendment, Section 1 of the Constitution:
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
Slavery: coercive means to compel someone to work.
Children, especially pregnancy and babies, require an immense amount of work. Men can choose how much of this work, if any, they will participate in. Many get the woman pregnant and leave. The woman’s choices are abortion, abandonment, and all of the work. If the woman has no choice, or near-impossible limitations, it is slavery.
The 13th Amendment, Section 1 of the Constitution, is an extremely strong reason for the Court to intervene to support Roe-v-Wade.
Second, at what point does continuing the pregnancy go from forced or near-forced work to a normal yes-or-no choice? At what point does the baby’s right to be born override the slavery issue?
To make an abortion decision, the woman must know she is pregnant, have enough time to decide, and then enough time to get the abortion. Roe gave her 3 months, sort of. An abortion could be performed in the middle 3 months if there were medical problems, but it was no longer the sole decision of the woman. Abortion in the final 3 months was only allowed to save the woman’s life.
The middle is nebulous and needs to be eliminated.
Then, how do you know when 3 months from conception are up? The court needs to set a firm starting point and length. I propose 4 1/2 months from the start of the prior period. That would give the woman 3 or 4 months to make up her mind. After all, a woman can skip a period. Either way, there would be at least 5 remaining months. After the cutoff point, the work becomes voluntary and the 13th Amendment no longer applies.
New state laws do not take a skipped period into account. They are even flakier than Roe and much more coercive. Oklahoma is the worst, with a 6-week cutoff point and its self-contradicting definition of “Pregnancy.” It promotes slavery.
Summary
The court will provide a rock-solid decision if they change the basis to the 13th amendment and a rigid cutoff point for the woman’s decision and the abortion. If they don’t and send the decision back to the states, chaos will reign.
Currently, the uproar is based on centuries of male religious dominance and desires by those who do not want to relinquish control.
Finally, only the clueless idiots will claim that the woman should never have had sex in the first place.
