The Florida Anti- Abortion Murder Act of 20??

This is not one of those posts that will please everyone. There is a critical abortion issue that must be addressed in the public forum, for this issue may arise before we have had time to debate it. Therefore, we must hold this debate now.

This issue comes in to play only if the United Supreme Court reverses Roe v. Wade and allows states such as Florida to make abortion illegal.

Here is the problem no one is talking about: What is the penalty?

Think about this carefully, regardless of your position. Here is the logical line of reasoning and where it leads.

1) What is the argument that posits abortion should be made illegal?

ANSWER: Abortion should be illegal because it is the murder of an unborn child.

2) What is the penalty for premeditated murder?

ANSWER: Florida Statute Section 782 states that the penalty is death or life in prison.

If some future Anti-Abortion Murder Act is passed, then the abortion murder sentence must be life or death. There is no logical way to make abortion an act of premeditated murder without a life or death sentence.

You noticed that I said "logical" and correctly point out that politicians are not always logical. Many have a tenuous connection to logic, at best. Yet what happens to our society if some future Anti-Abortion Murder Act passes?

Either 1) we have a murder statute section where the entire logical justification for it is a lie, or; 2) we imprison or execute doctors, women who have abortions, the nurses who assist and even the sister who drove the woman to the doctor.

I warned you that this post wouldn't be pretty.

Respectfully submitted,

NOTE: After this post was completed, I received a comment that caused me to check out another post that intrigued me from one sentence: "Life is life OR it's not." This is striking because of the incisive nature of the logic behind yes or no questions - they get to the truth rather quickly because the fuzzy avoidance of hard choices is eliminated quickly, and an issue gets distilled to its essential question rather quickly.
