South Dakota Officially Bans Baby Killing!

by @ 11:31 am. Filed under The Truth Shall Set you Free!

Oh happy day! The US Supreme Court is going to have to once again face the issue it typically wants to run from. Ever since Roe v. Wade, baby killing in America has cost this nation over 47,282,293 lives.

So why fight this fight? Because we know a pregnant woman is holding a human life. Every human being on earth was born from a womb. So there is no question that conception creates a human life. Our Constitution protects life, liberty and property. To think of a human life as property is a violation of the 13th Amendment of the Constitution.

AMENDMENT XIII

Section 1.
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.

Section 2.
Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

So parents cannot look at their children as “property”, even in the womb. They are a life. Now granted, the 14th Amendment does mention:

AMENDMENT XIV

Section 1.
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

So all people BORN AND SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE USA are considered citizens who are subject to our laws. (For more on this, see the post about Anchor Babies.) But the debate regarding abortion is not one of whether or not the LIFE is a citizen, but that it is a LIFE. Under our laws WE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO KILL ANYONE, no matter if they are a US citizen or not. So it does not matter that a life is not a US citizen. What matters is that we know a pregnant woman is holding a life within her womb.

Now that we know we are dealing with a human life, we must treat that life as we would any other person and we cannot deprive anyone of life. According to the 5th Amendment.

Amendment V

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

So no baby in a mother’s womb can be deprived of life, without due process. Aborted babies have no trial and are never found guilty of any crime.

Given babies in the womb:

They must be protected and it is the states’ duty to protect lives. Therefore South Dakota’s abortion ban is fully Constitutional. In fact, the federal government has the Constitutional duty to protect life if states will not. So the current Roe v. Wade situation turns our Constitution on its head. Roe v. Wade must be overturned, given the ruling is unconstitutional.

La Shawn Barber has more about the situation in SD and asked for a pro life defense. I think my argument is Constitutionally sound and will be proven to be in the future.

    It has long been my contention that the ultimate end of the abortionists weren’t ever clearly stated. Of course they couldn’t be honest. If they had been brutally honest they wouldn’t have made an inch of progress. So what is the ult…

    “Safe, legal and rare.”

    Wasn’t Bill Clinton the darling of the MSM and the liberals who help popularize the “Safe, legal and rare“? So why the hysteria about the Supreme Court appointments or the recent moves by states to exert their rights? Not hard to fi…
