ABORTION
Roe Draft’s Logic Ignores Reality & Takes Microscopic View of History
Cites laws based on ignorance back to the 14th century
The draft
In a previous article, someone suggested that I read the draft, so I did. What nonsense! The opinion looks like someone started with a prejudicial attitude and searched solely for cases that supported their preconceived ideas.
Judges usually look to prior cases for a precedent before ruling. For a precedent to apply, all circumstances and the environment must be the same. Judge Alito has cited numerous cases that have a vague connection, at best.
Old cases do not take into account changes in medicine, technology, culture, and women’s skillset. They no longer depend 100% on a man for survival.
Judge Alito is living in the dark ages. Following his thinking:
If he had an infection He would ask the doctor to bleed him Rather than take an antibiotic
By granting a woman no choice, he is in effect making the woman a slave and ignoring the 13th amendment.
The Texas law and others terrorize doctors
Terminating a pregnancy, even a non-viable pregnancy, is considered an abortion and is the same procedure. My Facebook friend’s ultrasound in the 12th week detected no heartbeat. She “felt like a walking coffin” but they refused to do an abortion. She had to wait for a miscarriage.
It was awful. They used trash bags to protect the car seats from the hemorrhaging during the trip to the hospital. Without even looking at her medical chart, the doctor insisted that she watch the MRI before he would complete the procedure, as advocated by anti-abortionists. Gross malpractice. He shut up after she told him the baby was dead and he finally checked her chart.
This is what happens when politicians and religious fanatics start practicing medicine without a license.
Finally
The Court needs to do its job, rewrite the draft, and quit trying to push it off to others.
