Neo,
I believe I am fairly consistent. Issues even different than just abortion.
Take DWI or DUI. If I had the final say, I would make it a crime of murder, not vehicular manslaughter, if any one is killed in an alcohol related accident. Drinking and driving is one of the most senseless crimes in our country, IMO. I would also make it an automatic penalty that any car stopped with a driver that is DUI, automatically forfeits the car and anything in it, no matter who the owner is(exception being stolen cars), and automatic jail time.(but not sitting in a cell, out cleaning up trash on highway, or cleaning commodes in parks, something like that.)
There is a bigger issue even on the "morning after" pill, and early abortions. It is morality. Not just sexual morality, but also I believe any effort after the fact cheapens life just a little more. When that happens, you know the slope just gets steeper and steeper and the snowball picks up speed.
Now if I was a politician and the only bill before me was to ban abortion with the exception of rape/incest, then I believe I could sign it, knowing that it would stop 90% of legal abortions in the USA. (but I also believe that rape would need to be proved and not just a swinging rape door at the clinic. I imagine incest a little easier to prove. |
